To a crowd in Iowa, Rick Perry said if Ben Bernanke
"prints more money between now and the election I don't
know what you'all would do to him in Iowa but we would
treat him pretty ugly down in Texas." For those of us
Texans old enough to remember, this is the same
sort of poisonous rhetoric that incited a crowd to
assault UN Ambassador Adlai Stevenson in Dallas on October 24, 1963, and that created the toxic
on a Dallas street on November 22, 1963.
