I think Perry got some buzz tonight and I think he did it by staying true to himself.

[Gaffer]

While probably true amongst technological afficionados or military-experienced personnel that it could be construed as a 'gaffe,' I believe that the large majority of the population who look at an unmanned aircraft automatically think of "Predator" - because that is what our traitorous MSM always refers to when they are denouncing supposed civilian collateral damage caused by the military.

I've lambasted Perry here on other topics, but on this one, he is DEAD SPOT ON! Take it to Obama - take it FAST, and take it FURIOUSly!

Props to Perry for refocussing the issue away from whore Sawyer's weaselly question.

Agree 100%!

The question was bait to get the candidates to attack Gingrich's statement. Santorum & Romney took the bait and embarassed themselves.

Perry deserves credit for this. If he had performed like this from the begininng, he would be in Newt's position in the polls.

Bump for later view.

King supports the 10th Amendment, so you need wonder no more.

[Irish Eyes]

Nice, very very nice.

Perry is our man. He has the right stuff.

Says it the way it is and gets the job done. He is a true believer in our great country.

No PC cr@p...

While I’m not a Perry-bot by any stretch (leaning to Newt), I wouldn’t write him off on that.. Because there should have been an article about JFK made nearly 50 years ago “JFK Missile Gap Gaffe Shows Unfittness to lead.”

[Ronin]

I think you can make the case that “predator” has become almost a generic word for UAVs because they are the ones the public hears about the most.

This doesn’t bother me.
