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.

Since I and others have listed more than two things that Perry did that many Conservatives did not like, could you tell us the only two things he did that you have a problem with?

That's like saying that drowning in 15 feet of water is somehow better than drowning in 20 feet of water. All three Republican Governors that we've had in our lifetime have shown some incredibly moderate tendencies, especially when it comes to Mexico, and all three have done some pretty awful things as Governor. Perry is the worst to me because of HPV, TTC, the DNA stuff, campaigning for a pro-abortion candidate and so on, but any of them are bad and a truly conservative Governor would not have done those things or allowed them to happen.

We'll never have a perfect candidate, but I want somebody who is clearly pro-life and who is consistent. Perry has not displayed either of those traits. He tries to be all things to all people and he will toss aside his beliefs when it comes to helping his friends out.

You aren't going to scare us into supporting Perry or scare us into being quiet about Perry's record by trying to label Perry critics as Ron Paul fans. I and the majority of Perry critics are not Ron Paul fans and the fact that you are trying to turn the discussion to us instead of Perry's actual record speaks volumes about the strength of your argument.
