This has to rate, as a stupid reporter question, right up there with “boxers or briefs”? It shows both disrespect to the person, but more importantly, disrespect for the office.

I would have much preferred for Perry to chew him out, as being ill-prepared to ask questions, and doing a disservice both to his news organization and to its readers or viewers. He could then go down a list of major problems facing the State and its people, that matter in people’s lives.

Then ask the report to pick one as a subject to discuss.

You never know when there’s a coyote lurking nearby.

They come in a two-legged variety as well...

Plus Perry has a degree in animal science from Texas A&M. Liberal heads will explode when they find this out. Perry gets elected- no more scummy Harvard elitists dominating government. Obama has appointed so many Harvard people.....

This man is much more pro-2nd amendment than GWB. I think I know who I will vote for. Let the MSM gloat. I want a President who will stand UP for the 2nd amendment forcefully.

My husband, who is not a gun guy, texted me that "some stupid reporter" had asked Gov. Perry that question.

The reporter says that Perry likes to brag about killing that coyote. I heard about it when it happened, and really haven't heard much about it since.

I suppose some people would have been happier if Gov. Perry had stood around wringing his hands helplessly as the coyote carried off his dog rather than shooting the coyote.

I consider asking someone whether or not he or she is carrying a pretty rude question, myself.

"The MSM is gonna get apoplectic over this Texan. Which is why I'm really getting interested. "

LOL!! Me too.

My first reaction was negative )I'm not tooo keen on mixing religion and politics, though I am a Bible-reading born-again Christian. But I'm finding him interesting...need to kick the tires a bit more.

That is your opinion.

All I can say is that we should not dismiss Perry’s sympathies toward Islam. It requires further investigation and, I am sure, that more will be revealed over time, pro or against him.

No way that I will vote for any “Christian” who will promote Islam in this country — a “religion” poised to destroy Christianity. It’s sad enough that we have a Congress that is totally silent on muslim matters because of their PC politics.

Over a ban at the fair that has rankled some local gun groups.

Could there be connection between those rules and the fact that fairgoers up in the great state of Wisconsin were attacked?

Rick Perry gets the nomination and he picks Sarah Palin as his VP! WINNER! ! ! !

I think that's highly unlikely to happen. A Presidential candidate usually picks a VP from a state he needs to carry. One with a lot of electorial votes. Rubio (FL) would be the much better choice IMO. Plus the ethnic factor as well. Alaska doesn't have that many electorial votes and he's likely to carry that in any case. JFK didn't pick LBJ because he liked him, that's for sure.

The reporter sounds like he is having a Chrissy Matthews moment, all tingly and “vaklempt”.

Here’s a fun video to make the MSM apoplectic. Perry makes Rush an honorary Texan.

And he has really really great hair,

And you're a really, really shallow person. Poor Eisenhower wouldn't stand a chance with voters like you.

Yep!

Notice that they don’t have to bother asking Romney if he is.

Yeah... the folks at DU seem to be obsessed with the idea that he’s gay...

That Gov. Perry then, because that is right up their alley, or something else. :-)

Is the author queer? He sure writes like a limp-wristed simpering faggot.

Don't ask, don't tell on Jesse....
