Thanks for the link! :)
I watched the interview and thought Perry was excellent. It’s too bad they titled the article this way as other candidates have made a number of gaffes recently.
Perry is great on the stump and in most sit down discussions. This is his venue and he should do a lot of it.
I'd have to say that no one dedicates this much time, effort, and money on a 'back of the pack' nobody. No one does.
That so many have dedicated so much against a so-called 'has-been' shows that he is nothing of the sort.
I agree with you. I have been surprised by the fixation on a candidate who is supposedly “toast”.
In this economy and with our record levels of debt and unemployment, and with our federal government practically forcing anal probes up the @sses of every last man, woman, and child in our country (TSA, overregulation)... I don’t really give a flying “eff” about it.
There are more important issues right now.
Nada ;o)
How about an honest debate of the pluses and minuses?
I remember back in 2008 I was called the most vile of names here for daring to critique Mc Cain (albeit just a few, but the same scenario is gelling now)
I have misgivings with EVERY candidate that is on this particular stage, but it is what it is.
Is it really any wonder the commies have succeed to where they are....gee, wonder how they did it.
usconservative: there are a lot of misconceptions out there and your concern is one of them. Hope this helps you.
The Supreme Court ruled that all states have to pay for the education of all students - legal or illegal.
The in-state tuition law in TX is for kids that were brought across by their illegal parents and have lived in Texas most of their lives. Texas has no choice but educate them to high school.
They PAY for their tuition. Some get financial aid from state and federal sources but they pay more then the aid that they get.
The NET profit from illegals and legals attending college under the TX in-state tuition law is over $11 million dollars.
Therefore, you do not pay for their tuition. No taxpayer does.
His original apology was a few days after saying it.
He has repeated it numerous times since.

Perry did apologize just a few days after...He said he used the wrong word and was sorry.
BTW he never used the word ‘heartless’....he said ‘have a heart’
He never used the word “heartless”. Look it up.
What is it with some of you folks wanting Gov. Perry to “apologize” to you?!? Are you so used to Obama apologizing for the whole country and the media demanding apologies from the entire Republican party that now you all think you should get apologies too? Grow up.
I had hoped that the little cadre of Perry haters might have given up their attacks in the week ... the blessed week... I took away from them.
And yet, here they still are.
In their mindless hate for Perry, they don’t stop to realize that if Cain falters— and it is oh, so, possible, they are leaving the field wide open for Romney.
Their posts are simplistic, repetitive, contain no new information ... just childish insults.
I hope their children never have to see what some of them have posted here.
I never go on Cain threads and attack him ... just today I took up for him on the ‘woman’ smear.
I may post some doubts but I never lie in wait for a Cain thread so that I can post negatives about the man.
I gotta say, you people need therapy.
wuz it’s tiny feelins hurt? Well, he’s already said he is sorry he put it that way.
They are little zombies given marching orders daily...stop Rick Perry...
So easy a child could do it. Maybe one day Perry can do it too."
He did. He made the point about dynamic scoring, which means he completely gets it.
Not for Mexicans who have broken US law, you do know that, don’t you?
Ok, I’m going to dare ask this question: what makes you, or anyone, believe Cain can debate Obama?
He is not perfect but he’s better than perry at explaining and convincing. And he’s very real about it.
Yes, I was pleased at how Perry had prepared to get back at Romney on Immigration. He was waiting for his chance and he did a good job. Can he do such a thing off the cuff? Not sure.
I think mitt’s weakness was that he didn’t think anyone would “dare” hit him on something so personal. He was flustered and ticked! It was very funny to see.
And hand our roads over to Europe’s rich to charge us big dollars.
6 posts for the a-hole brigade to check in.
Well at least nobody has been paying off Perry’s sexual harassment victims. Cain is toast.
