Perry: ‘Trump Owes Every American Veteran’ an Apology
Breitbart ^ | 07/18/2015 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 07/18/2015 3:18:59 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Republican presidential candidate and former Texas Governor Rick Perry strongly criticized fellow candidate Donald Trump for his remarks about Senator Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) at Saturday’s Family Leadership Summit in Iowa.

Perry’s discussion began with Frank Luntz asking the audience who they would invest in the most between teachers, nurses, and veterans. Perry then expressed his desire to answer the question. He stated, “if you don’t first keep this country free. If you don’t first have the investment in the men and women who are willing their hand up and say, ‘Here am I, send me,’ You will never have the dollars to hire the teacher. You will never have the dollars to hire a nurse.”

So Perry is going full retard on this to get some publicity? Rick, I probably have a better chance of being the nominee. Go buy a car dealership or a franchise and take it easy. It ain’t gonna happen.

Trump didn’t disrespect Veterans...he said that McCain has done NOTHING to help the veterans since he has been a Senator, and he hasn’t....

I want to like Perry. In some ways I do like him. But too often I cringe at what comes out of his mouth.

Perry has become as sanctimonious as Santorum used to be.
He should be using this time to tell us the reasons we need a President Perry, and not spending energy trying to pop Donald Trumps balloon.

He doesn’t owe me one. McCain craps on us every damn day. His hero status doesn’t excuse his constant betrayals and treason to the US Constitution.

The word “hero” is losing its meaning.

Any man who survives a prison camp in the hands of an enemy with no value for humanity deserves a quiet nod of respect.

Beyond that, further respect must be earned by wisdom and wise actions. It is here that Mr McCain has shown himself to be eligible only for the Little Leagues.

Time for the Assisted Living facility.

Perry and Huckabee bad-mouth Trump because it's the only was they can get their nane in the news.

Very few care what they have to say...about anything.

No, Rick. The problem is YOU. And you’ve just demonstrated that you’re utterly unfit for the office you’re running for.

Rick Perry forgets the ideals of duty, honor, country, have been crapped upon by so many politicians through the years.

The money “invested” to send those forth that volunteer, comes from the federal budget, whereas teachers and nurses do not.

Old military saying:
“Those that can’t, teach.”
“Nurses don’t fight, they patch up those that did.”

Big difference.

I’m a veteran, and I think that Perry is the one who should STFU!!!

Sorry rick, that's a fork in your butt, you are done. Mc Cain is as much a war hero as any G.I. caught during Korea. Neither Viet Nam nor Korea were declared Wars.
