Come on, it doesn't help your point to make circular arguments.

You could make the case that any of the three Republican Governors since the 1870s were more conservative than the other. Obviously Clements and Bush didn't try anything on the scale of the TTC, didn't try anything as liberal as trying to slip the HPV vaccine through without input from parents, and didn't campaign for a pro-abortion candidate while serving as Governor, and that puts them way ahead of Perry.

I think you're just trying to turn the debate away from Perry with that discussion and by attacking those of us who don't like Perry by labeling us as Ron Paul fans.

Ok, I'll ask where you are going with “Governor went out and hit the election trail for a pro-abortion candidate in a recent Presidential election like Perry did”?

Where am I going with it?

You can't call yourself a Conservative or a pro-lifer if you actively campaign for a pro-abortion Presidential candidate like Perry did.

My arguement has never been to promote Rick Perry for President. I am looking for one that can A. kick nobama off our stage and B. return America to a better path.

Perry did two things not many liked, it seemed he pulled back on them when he heard from us. He could have been like 90% of our previous governors and flipped us the bird like nobama. On the whole he has proven, to me at least, to be about the most conservative Governor in my lifetime or in Texas History.

Anyone who thinks we’ll ever find Mr. or Ms. Perfect as a politician with the aspirations and ability to be a serious contender, has a long and frustrating wait coming.

Whenever “kick the contender” begins here on FR, its not unusual for the RP faction to eventually be ID’d. If you are not with that fringe go nowhere herd, try not sounding like em.
