Answer:it is a rhetoric.
Explanation: Perhaps governor Perry's speech could be considered a rhetoric and also what he believes in. He is a republican social conservative who has supported a number of bills. Like banning same sex marriage in Texas in 2005, restricting abortions 2013 and other bills. He also supported and co sponsored "the response USA" an Evangelical Christian rally in 2011. As a governor or public office holder, engaging or supporting a particular ideology against all others is wrong.
Texans consider him to be too far out of touch from reality as he lost in his bid twice from 2012-2016 contesting for presidential elections.
Perry is known to be involved in controversies such as pressuring Ukriane into investing vice president Joe Biden and his son. If he can go to this length then "a little rebellion now and then" is good. Says Perry. Piliticians go to any lenght to achieve their political ambitions.
