Perry also is talking about imposing term limits for the SCOTUS. He’s tired of the judges legislating from the bench. Get check and balances back!

MNJohnnie, I really think you should step away from the computer and spend more time with your family.

You’re only going to get increasingly bitter as the primary season progresses and events continue to be not to your liking.

Why raise your blood pressure needlessly. Bond with your people. Have some fun.

I mean it.

I know we disagree here... I have done a great deal of research and investigation of Perry on this issue since he began his run.... for it concerns me how our politicians see ‘stealth jihad’ and it’s threat. Perry comes down on the wrong side of that..opposing radical islam is not enough...though since he began his run he attempted to change his verbage...his actions and how he sees them is not healthy for this country and puts us in harms way.

The others see pieces of the picture; Newt sees the heart of the matter, the Alinsky-Leninist brood running our government.
It's like Newt watched all those Glenn Beck shows, paid attention, took notes, thought about solutions... and now he's ready to go up against the Alinsky-Leninists in a way that none of the other candidates have even thought about yet.

Indeed!!

Seems I read that he was in hock to Tiffany’s for half a million dollars at some point.


That half million was his line of credit with Tiffany’s, not what he owed them.

Absolutely and he's [Gingrich] trying very hard to get the people to see it as well...which is another attraction to him...he sooo cares about our nation and knows exactly what has to be done....and every plan he has addresses more than what people read them as...those plans touch every place we need to clean up in our country to get it cooking once again.....
Well said.

Perry — U.S. Air Force Pilot

“In the early 1970s, Perry interned during several summers with the Southwestern Company, as a door-to-door book salesman. “I count my time working for Dortch Oldham [President of the Southwestern Company] as one of the most important formative experiences of my life,” Perry said in 2010. “There is nothing that tests your commitment to a goal like getting a few doors closed in your face.” He said that “Mr. Oldham taught legions of young people to communicate quickly, clearly and with passion, a lesson that has served me well in my life since then.”[18]

Upon graduation, Perry was commissioned in the Air Force, completed pilot training, and flew C-130 tactical airlift in the United States, the Middle East, and Europe until 1977. He left the Air Force with the rank of captain, returned to Texas, and went into business farming cotton with his father.”

I just got in from an evening out, dear Onyx, is there a good summary post you have made of this debate?

“I think Michelle just blew the tort reform question.

She didn’t explain why she is for federal tort reform.”

I agree why on earth does she think the federal government should control tort reform.

You appear to have reservations similar to mine.

No...I have no reservations what-so-ever. Gov Perry has a record of:

PRO-Life

PRO-2nd Amendment

AGAINST GW b.s. PRO ENERGY

AGAINST Obama Deathcare

PRO-Israel

PRO-Military

PRO-States Rights

PRO-Business/Free Market

PRO-reduced Taxes

And the cherry on the cake? Trial Lawyers in Texas HATE him. That is a bonus due to his signing 'tort reform' 'loser pays'.

No...no reservations here.

And when Perry decided to go into politics, he never lost an election.

“but usually pay cash.”

That’s smart. But you obviously have ‘lines of credit’ with your credit cards. Whatever they would lend you, should you choose to use them, is your ‘line of credit’ with the credit card companies. Just because someone has a line of credit doesn’t mean s/he has to use any of it, much less its max.

So the Gingriches have a $500K line of credit w/Tiffany’s. If they purchase $100K of Tiffany products, their available credit is down to $400K till they pay the $100K. Or it could go months or even years without being used at all. All that says is that Tiffany’s thinks they’re good for the $500K. Doesn’t mean they’re ‘in hock’ to them for that amount.

I think that Newt will win, so I hope that he is girded for the battle of his life. He does seem to be the most prepared. Bob

Exactly when you think about how the country has evolved over the past few decades and how much work there is to do to bring it back to some semblance of what the founders envisioned,its frightening!
