Sunlit Uplands readers know that we bow to no one in our utter contempt for the Marxist who is deliberately dividing and undermining this country from the Oval Office in the White House. Yet we are also the first to acknowledge that no one bears more responsibility for the election of Barack Hussein Obama than George W. Bush. We were, therefore, sorry to read this morning that his close friend and political protege, Texas Governor Rick Perry, has added South Carolina to his summer travel plans — his first trip to an early presidential primary nominating state.
South Carolinians have been tricked before by conservative rhetoric that masks big government, big spending, liberal policies and hordes of Rockefeller, Giuliani, Romney-style appointees to impose them. Indeed, George W. Bush never met a problem that $20 billion couldn't solve. South Carolinians believe that problems are best solved locally, by caring individuals, churches, and civic organizations, where true charity is the reflex of prayer. Many here give 10% of their income to support their church and its social outreach. Could there be another state with more churches per capita than South Carolina?
Governor Perry talks about the private sector doing the job government does so poorly. Indeed, he has learned that in the new media, bombast and tough talk in a viral video can cover a thousand sins. But when the talk ends, where does the governor put his money? Not in his church. ABC News reports...

Isn’t Senator DeMint a Romneybot?
Sigh. Can’t you Palinstinians go two posts without trying to run down a solid conservative?
DeMint has no interest in running for President despite all the wishful thinking.
He just said this morning on the Glenn Beck show that he is NOT, I repeat NOT goingto run for President.
My understanding is that Perry and Bush are not by any means close friends. The Bushes worked to get Kay Bailey Hutchison elected over Perry in the primary the last time around.
That's why we strongly support Jim DeMint for President.
I'd be right with you if DeMint was running. He's not.
I don’t know about DeMint, but Perry is a RINO in sheep’s clothing.
Nope. And your saying “Sigh. Can’t you Palinstinians go two posts without trying to run down a solid conservative?” Is a blood libelous low-down dirty attack on Sarah herself.
At least that’s how they’ll treat you.
Yer kidding ?
Really....?
Perry has no interest in running for President despite all the “wishful thinking”.
No, not really, I was being ironic. I fully realise that the majority of Palin's supporters on FR are complete jerks.
This will come as quite a surprise to both men considering the Bushies very vocal support of Perry's primary opponent KBH.
Yep....he is. Agree.
There certainly seems to be a surge of Perry Pimps on FR lately.
Telling the truth is now considered “running down” someone?

Yep. Don’t stop your Perry posts though.
“He just said this morning on the Glenn Beck show that he is NOT, I repeat NOT goingto run for President.”
Angels wept.
Haven’t seen such but then I’m in the minority of Palin supporters.....if she runs.
I try to be polite an just agree to disagree....:o)
Stay safe , hope yer well.
In this arena there are only two conservatives - Palin and Bachmann.
Do a search for Palin/Bachmann or Bachmann/Palin ticket hype and you’ll get thousands of hits. Even a daily prayer thread or two.
DeMint’s conservative credentials can never be questioned, but here they are all the time by the PalinPushers.
