Very nice Oceander, feel free to keep doing that, lol!
I made a gif of people feeling the effects of an electrified fence - but have hesitated to post it, heh...
I just turned Jay Leno on, didn’t someone say Perry was going to be on his show?
I think he's on Thursday.
The roads in question were not and are not needed. Blocking Perry from having them built saved us a lot, plus we have no legal impediment to keep us from widening I35 if we need to - Which the TTC would have imposed.
Ahh, thanks. I never usually watch him anyway, lol.
[I don’t hear anyone talk about Perry’s toll road debacle either.]
Debacle.....!! LOL, I love the I-45 toll road out of the Roundrock area, glad to pay to avoid the horrible traffic on I-35 into Austin. You all like to nitpick silly things.
“What could be more capitalistic than letting the people who actually use the roads being the ones who pay for them?”
Interesting perspective on toll roads. As a Minnesota native-I would have disagreed with you a few years ago. We don’t have toll roads up there and things seem to function just fine without them.
Then I moved to the Philippines in 2007. Over here, there are mostly government-built and maintained roads that are always full of potholes and a nightmare to drive on (Here, they don’t have the ability to go trillions in debt to pay for this stuff). But there’s one highway near where we live called the Star Tollway. It’s privately-owned and maintained, and the roads are always smooth. I am more than happy to pay the toll to drive on a nice, smooth road that’s free of potholes.
Yawn. According to the Perrywinkles, Perry has been “coming back” for a month now. But during all this time, he’s still at 7%. What’s wrong??? /sarc
>> Gov. Perry’s star will rise once again.
It wouldn’t surprise me. Actually, I’m anticipating it. He’s tenacious.
Save a pretzel for the gas jets!
Ricky? Making a-n-o-t-h-e-r comeback? He’s already had more reincarnations than Bela Lugosi.
AND WHAT ABOUT THIS? Ricky said he was NOT runnng for president (at the same time he had three federal PAC’s-— that we know of——one had already raised $55 million for his 2012 run).
AND I QUOTE Perry told The Associated Press shortly after winning re-election for governor in 2010—— “The best concrete evidence that I’m really not running for president is this book, because when you read this book—”Fed-Up”—you’re going to see me talking about issues that for someone running for public office, it’s kind of been the third rail if you will......”
RICARDO’S WORD NOT WORTH A BUCKET OF SPIT Ricky also lied when he promised Texas voters he would NOT run for president if they reelected him.
RINO Rick has made FIVE 'comebacks' now and he is still tied in single digits with Ron Paul.
Just how many times can RINO Rick 'comeback' and what exactly does 'comeback' mean to a Perry supporter?
Can anyone tell me why Governors Perry and Huntsman, Representatives Paul and Bachmann and Senator Santorum are still in the race? Do they really have nothing better to do?
Good question 2DV. Maybe the Perry faithful can explain.
(1) voters are very wary about a losing candidate like Ricky who has money to burn,
(2) Ricky can't seem to understand he's not in Texas anymore,
(3) voters are very way of losing candidates who don't get the voters' message.
All the other candidates---even the ones we abhor---all have a sense of presidential detachment, and a willingness to explain their positions.
Senor Ricky evidences an utter contempt for voters and sneers at the selection process.
And woe be to those who disagree with him.......he is ready with a slapdown.
You will begin to see that Cain will drop even further in the polls after the latest woman in the closet. That would have left us with Newt and Mitt.
Now we have a month before Iowa to reset our thinking and back the guy with the best jobs record, best gun record, best anti abortion record, best military record.
I we had thrown all our eggs into the unvetted untested Cain we would be really pissed right now.
I thank God Perry raised that 17 million when he did, it has kept him in this race and if he didn't Mitt Romney would be the default candidate right now because no matter how much some Freepers want Cain, the voters wont after last night.
Sorry boy, but one emperor in my lifetime is plenty.
That ad runs dozens of times a day here in Texas, and I have the same reaction everytime it comes on. Perry's idea of governance is to circumvent the Constitution. What's next, mandatory vaccinations... oh, wait...
Yawn. Rick’s on another “comeback” lap on his going nowhere oval campaign track. 17 million buys alot of Texas centric circular laps, but the cross country race left him behind in the dust two months ago.
LOL!!!!!
A little education would do you well.
