Voting for Sotomayor is enough to turn me off. The balance on SCOTUS is critical and endangered, it can’t survive even a “moderate” appointment.

Santorum was not in office to vote for Sotomayor onto the SCOTUS. This debate is over Santorum voting to place Sotomayor on the lower court.

“Tell you what, you go up to one of the honored military heroes who support him, one of the wounded warriors who support him, and you tell them to their faces the crud that you say about Governor Perry.”

That is quite irrelevant being that every candidate running for president has members of our military who support him.

BTW-Where did you see a poll that showed that Perry has a 60% approval rating?

If Rick Perry has a 60% approval rating in Texas, why is it that only 18% of Texas Republicans support him for the GOP nomination?

Is this your source -- Texas Tea Party Straw Poll Saddle up Texas Straw Poll -- That Ron Paul won?

It’s funny you keep posting that picture. A man can’t rub his face now?

Who is your candidate so I can post a picture?

My source would be the Public Policy Poll that showed that Perry was in third place in Texas.

It makes it no less relevant, just an annoying fact for you to diminish that Perry has such regard for the military and they for him.

Wrong. Romney has not done one thing FOR America. Rudy has. Romney’s counterpart is barry.

“PPP surveyed 559 Texas Republican primary voters from January 12th to 15th. The margin of error for the survey is +/-4.2%. This poll was not paid for or authorized by any campaign or political organization. PPP surveys are conducted through automated telephone interviews. PPP is a Democratic polling company, but polling expert Nate Silver of the New York Times found that its surveys in 2010 actually exhibited a slight bias toward Republican candidates.”

What a lame hit piece on Rick Santorum from Rick Perry.
Nice try though, even though it's totally false and misinformation.
Now ? how can you explain how Rick Santorum even voted in the Senate to confirm Sotomayor when he was not even a Senator then ? .. of course, you hope that no one will notice that this all a lie...
The vote to confirm Sotomayor was on Aug, 6 , 2009.... Rick Santorum left the Senate in 2007.
Rick Perry owes Rick Santorum for preading these nasty lies...
Rick Santorum was not even in the Senate in 2009 to vote for Sotomayor's confirmation... stop spreading these lies.

Need to head to the office to work my oil & gas industry job in Austin, that like every job in the entire State of Texas, only exists because of Gov. Rick Perry.

If it were not for him, we would all be living in caves on the Barton Creek Greenbelt.

Just do us all a huge favor and walk up to one of them, in person, and spew your crud about their candidate to their faces.

Get out from the hidey hole typewriter and just do it.

Talk about making an irrelevant comment, you won the prize.

It wasn’t about the honored and the wounded supporting a candidate. It was about your ease of doing what you do on these threads, versus the scene of you daring to address these heroic men with the low bile you can spew here, with no consequences for yourself.

I further note that if the Governor were as worthless as you portray him, it is not likely that these men would bother with supporting him. They don’t just put their names on a list, they travel with and appear with him in public witness to their support. Marcus Luttrell lived in a room in his home and thinks of him like a son would a father.

All of this is lost on someone who does what you do. It has to be lost, and you have proved it by saying oh, every candidate has such support.

Changing the subject and ignoring the point.

Because the problem we deal with here ISN”T coming from Governor Perry.

And did you vote for Rick Perry for Governor, or did you cast a vote for Hutchison in the primary or Medina (or Bill White) in the general election?

AmericanInTokyo ? this all a non-issue, this is nothing but pure lies and propaganda by Rick Perry and his people.
Rick Santorum lost his seat to Bob Casey in the 2006 election... and Rick Santorum went home from the Senate in January of 2007.... how could have Rick Santorum voted for Sotomayor when he was not even in the Senate ? ....
Rick Perry and his propagandist owe Rick Santorum a apology.

Sonia Sotomayor has served as a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit since October 1998.

Rick Santorum was a Senator from 1995-2007.

Spin, Spin, Spin, in hopes that the Rick Perry propagandist will have full effect with this in hopes that people will see this as Rick Santoruom voting to confirm Sotomayor on the Supreme court, and that is exactly what the Perry propagandist hope to accomplish with this....
