Well, Bachmann won the Iowa straw poll, but this Santinelli fellow doesnt exist.

I watched Bachmanns speech, she sucked. she was very rigid.

I thought Rick Santorum did a decent job while staying true to his principles, but I don’t think he can win

I bet you think the Trans-Texas Corridor was a good idea and tha Gurdasil was a wise decision. And that Open borders with Mexico is good

[snip] ...The buzzing bees of anti-Perry activists with their "Gardasil-TTC-Border" mantra will only continue to highlight and enhance a Gov. Rick Perry nomination as truth of his work here in Texas gains national exposure. Rick Perry as governor, used all resources at his disposal in an attempt to make a cancer vaccine available to Texas children. The governor is battling environmentalist activists in his push for more transportation infrastructure in a state exploding with commerce and population. And using state resources, Gov. Rick Perry (denied the necessary and requested federal help needed by a border state to deal with the consequences of current federal inaction, in addition to shouldering the continued fallout from past federal actions) works to hold the line on the 1250 mile section of the U.S. border between Texas and Mexico, our neighbor to the south.

“I would rather have an honest man, rather one who “finds” religion beneficial to his ends.”

You have yet to prove that is what Perry is doing.

The Rick Perry I Know (Perry keeps his boot on his opponent's neck until.....) ....."He is an extremely astute politician with a keen sense of where voters are, and he has great instincts on message. Perry has ruthless discipline and communication. They say in politics, “Don’t let your boot off an opponent’s neck till Election Day.” Perry doesn’t take his boot off till a year after the votes have been counted and the opponent has faded into oblivion.".....

Yes, he is a politician, but he is also a reg’lar guy that bailed hay in Josephine Tx

I’m betting on Perry

No. It’s not that. He just refuses to hide his faith. He lets it shine, all the time, lets it shine. Atheists and agnostics just can’t stand it.

Garbage? Are you calling John Locke’s philosophy and Cicero’s “On Moral Duties” as garbage, when they are the very basis of our Constitution and Natural Rights—directly referred to in our Founding Documents?

Links? Just read John Locke, Cicero and study ‘Natural Law Theory’—the Founders all did.

I do not have time to steer you to “links”—and as far as “garbage” just read what Perry has actually said (about New York Marriage “law” and his idea that there is no Universal Law (which is enshrined in Natural Law Theory/Cicero/Locke))-—that ridiculous type of (non) logic which claims that you can dump God’s standard of right and wrong—for “majority vote in a State” !!!!!! (puke).

That is garbage and why the US is no longer recognizable. Our principles have been inverted. We now use Lucifer’s standards of right and wrong and totally ignore “Right Reason according to Nature” which is the fundamental philosophy of Natural Law Theory.

Do you honestly think “Right Reason” can condone something as teleologically insane as “homosexual marriage”, then, I understand how you think Natural Law Theory and Locke and Cicero are all garbage.

Give me a President who CHAMPION”S God’s Law and the laws of nature—I just want someone who will honor our Constitution and its principles of Rule of Law—which would NEVER allow illegal immigration to be rewarded.

Invoking the name of “Jesus” does NOTHING—it is the actions that always matter and Perry’s actions reflect a godless Rino.

Perry showed major faith doing the resitol prayer conference

just weeks ahead of his announcement.

All the MSM where mocking him, now here he stands.

Dole and McCain are of zero relevance. They were wishy washy senators who loved to compromise with the Dems. Perry is a multi term governor with the best economic track record in the country.

You don’t know squat about me and you don’t understand faith.

You! The dictator and interpreter of others’ faith.

You’re scary.

Rick Perry IMHO is no Godless RINO...How would Jesus Christ handle Illegal immigration, I suppose how he handled strangers in the *Bible* He would proably teach them the skills they could take back to there own land and make there nation one of godly success...

As far as Texas..

One of the best economies in the USA.
Tax friendly state
No state taxes..
Tough on Crime..No nonsense when it comes to the Death Penalty
GOD-loving state.

Rick Perry has my vote!

He is not ashamed of the *GOSPEL* and invoked the name of Jesus Christ with no hesitation at the *RESPONSE*
Prayed for the USA
Prayed for our Troops

Prayed for rain..

BTW: Did you know a couple days later...TEXAS GOT RAIN!

Praise GOD!

GO GOV. PERRY! We need you in the White House!

All the bile from the Haters is just fine. But the truth about Perry is silly.

I see alot of similarities with the Dems arguements. Throw anything against the wall if it sticks great if not start calling names. It doesn’t work anymore.

Wonder how all the folks that support Palin and are Perry bashing now are going to react when she endorses him.

I don't want to be anywhere NEAR FreeRepublic when that happens - talk about a complete meltdown!

Who will they be able to support when Palin doesn't run? They've torn down every other conservative candidate.

Geesh, sometimes I come to FR and think I'm at DummieUnderground - the bashing of GOP candidates! It's really pitiful.
