The BullyPulpit Disclaimer

I acknowledge that there are a large number of folks on here who really are worried about illegal immigration. Perry has failed to commiserate with you and hasn't provided enough empathy to you. And he has not adequately explained the fine line he has walked in Texas keeping the issue from reaching a boiling point amongst many different, divergent interests in short, snappy 30-second sound bites with CNN interrogators flogging him in front of millions of people. I feel your pain and offer empathy. Tons of it. I get it.

Also have some fact checking on Mitt Romney's and Rick Perry's man-fight over Romney's illegals, Romney's book editing, Texas jobs going to only illegal immigrants, and a few other issues from last night's debate here.

I am ashamed of of how this debate went off. I personally do not give a tinkers damn about some of the disputes that took place tonight. It is time for Rick San and Bachman to pack their bags and hit the roads. I am tired of all this beating up on each other and for what, to give pukes like CNN and Anderson Cooper the joy of seeing these candidates make fools of themselves cutting each other up and for what? This childish game has to stop.

Am I the only one who REALLY wishes Gov. Palin had been up on that stage? Lord, what a circus!

You're right. In fact, he has done just the opposite. Like Bush and McCain he insulted us. He talked down to us. He ignores/ignored us. He lifts his pretty little texass nose up in the air to us. He panders to hispanics BUT NOT US. He takes us for granted. He sneers at us.

In short, he shows that he is more interested in the hispanic vote than the vote by Americans.

Good info. Keep it up. I hate Romney throwing out false accusations knowing there is no time to rebut until the next debate.

He is clearly trying to paint Perry as a lover of illegals. Perry better nip that "100000" discount to illegals too. Once people understand, and while they may disagree, Romney will be hurt for his tactics

Herman Cain “saved” Godfather’s pizza by cutting jobs as well, and he also “flipped” the company after he cut it down, only in his case, the “flip” was that the parent company gave up on Godfather’s and sold it at a loss to Cain and his management team.

In the time Cain ran Godfathers, from the day he started turning it around, to the day he finally left the company a decade later, he turned it around from the 5th-largest pizza chain to the 11th-largest pizza chain.
