So far over the top that it may well have broken free of the earth’s gravitational pull.

I’ll settle for the Lone Ranger and Tonto.

Lone Ranger and Tonto——good analogy.

Perry’s like a contract player Hollywood does not know what to do with. Perry should be asked how much time he spends posing for pictures —— as opposed to actually governing.

Some savvy Texans on FR have described Perry as a Punxatauney Phil——he comes out of his cave only at election time——packing, wearing a cowboy hat, dangling “secession anytime we want to” in front of trusting Texans.

Last election, he promised Texans that if they reelected him, he would not run for president——told Palin the same as she was endorsing him——at the same time he raised $55 million from one PAC alone.

Perry keeps his activities quiet-——some Texans did not even know Perry was giving illegals in-state tuition-—until he stupidly made it an issue at the debate.

Ugh-—the idea of “Posing Perry” in the WH is nauseating.

Lone Ranger my patoot. He's a thief. He stole my friggen hat!
I'm series. That hat he on in the pic is 'mine'(1) :-)

I'd call the Feds but they're all busy ducking Congress over Gunwalker.

(1) that's a 'Cattleman' style (hopefully a Stetson), the most popular, best looking and coolest style (ihmo) of western hats. (Though Cain is giving the 'pinchfront' style, a lot of exposure)

The good news is Perry is now polling in single digits.......polls show he's a bit more electable than the Black Death.

Perry's reinventing himself by the minute----vainly hoping to reverse the "Go Home Cowboy" messages. A classic case of politician's paranoia.......single-digits makes 'em go ballistic.

Perry's had more reincarnations than Bela Lugosi. ......... not sure the Count ever wear a cowboy hat.

These one issue voters refuse to acknowledge Governor Perry”s conservative traits. One issue voters are going to hand obama a second term to finish us off.

I have no clue as to whether voters are moving to Perry, as I've been out of the country for 3 weeks but I look at the total field and I see the accomplishments of Perry's Texas and I'll take it.

I want someone with a proven record and Perry comes the closest.

This statement is deliberately misleading. One would get the impression that Perry signed some kind of EO granting instate tuition to illegals in TX. That is false.

Maybe in the interest of honesty, you would be willing to tell the entire, honest story.

Once he drops out of the race, maybe he can go work in Hollywood as an actor more wooden than Chuck Conners. A remake of the old “Rifleman” series. Rickey can shoot thousands of villians (or birds) in one half hour!

” Perry’s a triple threat: A Hyphenate Worshipper, An Illegal Enabler, A Flopola Candidate

AS HE SINKS IN THE POLLS, PERRY KEEPS REMAKING HIMSELF BUT HE CAN’T HIDE THE FACTS Perry has had three terms as governor to secure the border———the governor controls the Ntl Guard——Perry can order as many troops as he needs WRT securing the border. “

The “ dirty little secret “

A Reagan Legacy: Amnesty For Illegal Immigrants

"I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and lived here, even though sometime back they may have entered illegally," Ronald Reagan said in 1984.

It amazes me that Perry is expected to fully secure the US border with Mexico. He already spends millions of TX taxpayer dollars each year to "help" secure the border. It is enormous and certainly not the sole burden of Texans while everyone else uses their state taxes to build schools and roads. It is apparently the belief of many that Texans and Rick Perry should shoulder the full burden of doing what the US government should be doing.

*** Is that why Reagan gave 12 million illegals amnesty? ***

12 Million?!? Are you one drugs?

So kindly take off your Perry-headed Bunny Slippers, the Perry Colored Glasses, push away from the 'I Heart Perry Keyboard', and stick to the facts.

All you Perry Cultists do is hurt him more and more with your outlandish statements --- which grow exponentially after each time he steps in a Cow Pie.

Yup, (Gary Coooper imitation)-----Hollywood is definitely Perry's milieu.

Perry's carefully cultivated "Marlboro Man" image, that craggy face, and those bow-legs, are just made to ride the range. ......not to mention the Texas drawl---droppin' all those g's.

And just in time----Hollywood is sucking up to latinos bigtime (for ticket sales and lucrative distribution deals in the Third World).

Hollywood is already looking at a movie WRT Perry's plans to finance reconquista with federal funds....titled "Elect Me And I'll Screw Every Taxpayer in America.".
