You don't need the executable bit set on bashrc. ~/.bashrc gets read
when you start an interactive shell, e.g. an xterm. When you log in a
login shell is started, which reads ~/.bash_profile. If you want that
your ~/.bashrc will be read on login include the following statement
in ~/.bash_profile
[[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc
Cheers,
