Well, Perry said he’d be offended by a 5k bribe...
Classic...
“Perry is off my list.
Illegal immigrant bootlickers. “
Silence from the audience on his explanation of his support of illegal instate tuition.
Silence.
YEAH !!!
HERMAN CAIN 2012
Perry just blew the illegals question. Huge!
Huntsman's dancing eyebrows are irrating also!
They tried, but I wish they would hammer the fact that it’s a state’s rights issue. If the people of Texas want to give these tuition breaks, so be it - it’s the people’s choice. If Massachusetts or Utah don’t then they won’t. The issue is should it be Federal policy? No, of course not!
The Pizza Man is my main man!
In a few words, Michelle is trying to remain relevant...and she is getting smarmy and shrill and losing what support she had.........in my humble opinion.......I like her...but no way I want that whiny wench in the White house...
Yea, the dude is crazy, liberal and totally out of place. Awkward, not funny. Drop out!
Denial... denial... it's not just a river in Texas that can't have a fence in it.
USS Cole; Khobar Towers; World Trade Center 1993...
>>If you care about your kid, you fill out a form.<<
LOL.
I care about my country.
If you are not working toward citizenship the Texas Dream act does not apply.
“I notice that when Perry speaks, Romney at least looks at him. She’s looking the other way, seems really dumb.”
Looking at the wrong camera would be my guess. Seems to be an emerging trend...
Just got into watching, and it was like 30 minutes before they let Newt Gingrich talk.
The questions that remains is: How many debates do we have to put up with him in?
LOL!
And you know her personally? If not...blah blah blah your ignorant blah all you want...
Even Romney is scoring points on Perry tonight (on the illegal immigration issue). The good ship Perry is taking on water. The only thing saving Perry’s campaign from cratering tonight is Monday Night Football...
