No, it’s Perry’s RINO record that is getting old fast.

..I would be interested in RP's response to questions about a North American Union.

I'll never forget President Bush's dance around the question...

Nope. At the moment, Perry is the best candidate we’ve got. I’m not voting for a congressman from MN or a guy who ran burger joints, or a failed senator, or a congressman from TX, or a professional self-promoting, bloviating failed Speaker, or Romney. Did I forget anyone?

My grandparents had been here a few years when grandpa found out that my mom MUST attend school. My grandparents were not citizens.

Mom was born here. She was 6, knew no English but the little old one room schoolhouse at the end of the road gave her the opportunity to prosper in the years ahead.

She never taught us HER language. This was America.

If you are pro-amnesty then Perry is your man.

He makes himself clear that he would not deport illegals.

Perry got about 39 percent of the Hispanic vote in his last election. Any Republican running for statewide office in Texas needs at least 1/3rd of the Hispanic vote to win. Dallas County is now Democratic and Harris County is 50/50. The only major urban county that remains Republican is Tarrant County.

Anyone criticizing Perry for these stands doesn’t understand Texas politics.

Open borders supporter Jennifer Rubin has an article out today praising Bush 2 for his love of pandering to illegals.

I don’t think his supporters here are going to like an amnesty queen like her playing up their boy.

This issue is about ten years old! Instate tuition to illegal kids who meet the requirements of residency doesn't mean they are not paying tuition because they are.

Last week I saw that YOUR governor Christie named a Muslim to the bench stating he has no problem with Sharia law, in so many words.

And you are worried about something that was signed into law in TEXAS 10 years ago?!

You might need to examine your priorities.

Perry has no shot. Even you are afraid he might not beat Obama. That’s what you posted.

How is reporting what a candidate says truly says and what he does a bad thing?

I think we've had quite enough from our ruling class elites, don't you? I pay attention to what a man does, not what he says. In Perry's case, that an unbridgeable gulf betwee na betrayal of the foundations of freedom and rhetoric purporting otherwise.

Tell me again how free shit for illegals is a good thing?

And then there's the wind.

Just last year, nearly $3 billion worth of wind-powered electric generators were installed, twice as much as any other state. This addition of more than 1,600 megawatts of capacity bumped up our total wind capacity by 59 percent. And the hits keep on coming. For example, this afternoon, one of the world's largest manufacturers of alternative energy equipment is announcing a new research facility here in Houston. And I recently got word that Hill Country Wind Power has acquired the Wind Turbine Company and is moving their manufacturing operations from Bellevue, Washington to the Lone Star state. With progress like this, I am confident we'll hit the next milestone, 10,000 megawatts, or 10% of our current capacity, well before the deadline in 2025.

A trait of Perry’s is in some cases he seems to change his toon for the better. In most cases he was forced to do so for political gain. He’s a moderate so don’t expect any more
conservatism from him than you did from Bush W. By the way,
what would you much prefer, illegal aliens or a steady
stream of unemployed liberal commies vacating the failed
norther states?

Wow that was weak!

Christie likes sharia law so it’s ok that Perry supports amnesty?

I’m encouraged by the weakness of your reply. It shows that even die hard “Bush 2” supporters don’t have the energy to defend his many,many flaws for more than a couple weeks.

I still think immigration is a huge issue and he isn’t getting my vote till I see him get rid of the sanctuary cites in his own state and deal with the problem. If not, he sure as he’ll isn’t going to do anything about it as president.

I think he is a slick insider and will never get my vote.

RINOs, “Vote for us just one last time. We promise we’ll be better”.

Drunk in an alley, “Just one last drink, then I’m quitting for sure. I promise.”

“These anti-Perry articles are getting old really fast.”

Perry has to make his case. If he is an open borders, North American Union type, he needs to be culled. If he is not, he has an opportunity to gain support by destroying false assertions.
