10,00 posts, wow! Get a life! Yes, and Obama has a secret plan. In all those you could be pro-conservative and pr—republican? You didn’t write any criticizing McCain? It wasn’t your post anyway since it was in the the Austin Pravda and FR last week.

Yes, he seems to have a problem with women.

BTW, so does Jay Leno. Every single time I switched to his show, he had a slur about Palin. It was like an obsession of stalker. Suddenly it appeared to stop. Now it is Michele Bachmann. Every show I have lately seen has Leno making a slur about Bachmann, not other GOP contenders. It is like a formula he has been told to parrot or an obsession with her. Some comments merely repeated of previous ones. I did not watch him last night and do not know if once again he brought up her. Leno is becoming creepy.

Rick Perry endorsed Rudy Giuliani (RINO).

Ronald Reagan was once a democrat

Sarah Palin endorsed Rick Perry

John McCain chose Sarah Palin

___________

Here is a BIG one that should keep you from voting:

Romney hired illegals (now that’s the type of crime that we should not let get by and vote for them)

Your ‘cut/paste” skills are outstanding! Perry is not perfect, the only candidate you will agree with 100% of the time is yourself. Gov. Perry has done a better job in Texas than the establishment GOP has done with the country since 2001. Gov. Perry has made mistakes but has corrected them when fellow conservatives expressed their displeasure.

Romney = Romneycare (another NO NO that should be a warning to vote against him)

Ron Paul is a nut (don’t vote for him)

I have distorted nothing. Perry did say he thought it was a states’ right issue. But that does mean he should say he is ‘fine’ with it. No conservative should be ‘fine’ with the sham that is queer marriage.

However Perry seems to fail to grasp the seriousness of illegal aliens invading this country.

He had to back track later by saying he was not fine with homosexual marriage and was only talking about NY’s 10th Amendment right to have unholy matrimony.

I believe in the veracity of spontaneity with back tracking being a desperate cover-up.

He said what he said and the glee in his voice when he said he was JUST FINE with homosexual marriage in NY was all one needed to hear.

Rick Perry endorsed Rudy Giuliani (RINO).

Rick Perry endorsed pro-abortion Rudy Giuliani (RINO).

A much more accurate statement.

They support anyone who won’t secure our borders. Who wantys to pay for illegals education. Who supports sanctuary cities. Who won’t secure the voting process to insure illegals aren’t voting. Need I go on?

A coutry that doesn’t secure its border and controls who cross it is soon not a country.

Legislatively, if conservatives push Perry in a conservative direction, will he go along or resist?

Good point. So do I.

Exactly.

Rick Perry was Al Gore’s Texas campaign manager
- He supported a Gore who was anti-abortion and pro public prayer, a Gore who voted against banning interstate handgun sales. Gore was a conservative democrat at a time that Texas was crawling with them.

Rick Perry endorsed pro-abortion candidate Rudy Giuliani for president in 2007
- This is disingenuous

Rick Perry is responsible for Texas’ version of the Dream Act
- His Dream Act gives anchor babies the ability to go to Texas Universities at in state tuition costs.

Rick Perry opposed the border fence
- In what context?

Rick Perry opposed SB 1070, Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration law
- He didnt oppose it, he said that the same bill would not work for Texas

Rick Perry opposed Obama’s stimulus plan but took billions in stimulus money to balance the Texas budget
- According to who?

Rick Perry said he was ok with NY’s gay marriage law
- He said he was fine that NY’s legislature and governor made the law, not that he was ok with the law

Rick Perry was hand-picked by Karl Rove and is an establishment Republican
- According to who?

[I mistakenly labeled the issue “abortion” rather than “gay marriage.”]

You’re still distorting.

“Legislatively, if conservatives push Perry in a conservative direction, will he go along or resist?”

He doesn’t seem to take too well to being pushed. It took 5 years of conservative SCREAMING to get him to back away from the Trans-Texas Corridor, and he still doesn’t completely get the message.

Some FACTS to consider:

Obama is not a leader.

Governors make better Presidents (in recent history)because they are leaders

So, let’s look at the governors running on our side:

Mitt Romney - mostly politician, less ideologue who will say anything, take any position for votes.

Jon Huntsman - worse than a RINO

Gary Johnson - is he actually in the race?

Tim Pawlenty - incapable of fighting for a cause

Buddy Roemer - another one who is running by AWOL

Rick Perry - OK, if I MUST pick one of these.....I’ll go with the guy who shoots coyotes while running.

There really isn’t a way to figure out what he thinks about it. But since it’s not a Texas issue, maybe he hasn’t thought about it at all (which is pretty scary if he wants to be president), and that is why he was caught so flat-footed on the issue.

Okay so Perry is no good.
Palin is unelectable due to the Alinsky tactics of the last 3 years.
Pawlenty is Tiny Tim writ large.
Bachmann had too many kids.
Romney is a Mormon.
Huntsman is a Mormon.
Cain sold pizza.
Gingrich walked out on a wife with cancer.
Guiliani’s wife is a b*tch.
Rick Santorum is a Catholic.
Am I forgetting anyone?
Christie is too fat.
Rubio likes Cuban food.
Allen West speech patterns doesn’t have the cadence of a black preacher so won’t appeal to black voters.
Jan Brewer’s hair is too blond.

Just let us know when the perfect candidate comes along because I sure as heck am looking forward to an 8 year long Obama administration.
