A vote for Jaime Ricardo "Rick" Perry is a vote for the conquest of the U.S. by La Raza. It is a vote for the obscene lie that Islam is a "religion of peace." It is a vote for the continued exploitation of real conservatives by the corrupt country-club Pubbie establishment. It is support for the smear that people who oppose taxpayer subsidies for illegal aliens are "heartless."

Thank God that Ricardo Perry exposed himself for what he is: the same man who was an enthusiastic Demonrat all through the Reagan Revolution, a man who supported rich Ivy League playboy dope-smoking punk and son of a career Demonrat politican (supported by Commie fellow-traveler Armand Hammer) Al Gore.

Perry has been exposed. He is just a stalking horse for the immoral, unprincipled, "winning is all that counts" Pubblie establishment. So please quit spamming FR with your garbage.

How can you tell the difference? Rick Perry does not flip flop on his positions. Even if they are unpopular, he stands by them. How many statewide healthcare plans did he enact? Rick Perry does not support cap and trade to curtail global warming.

Rick Perry may lean right but I have my doubts about his core conservatism.

Granted, he is not a socialist like Romney but that is not good enough this year.

We need a strong leader that has a good grasp of the English language, Perry is not the man for the job right now. His pockets are lined wth money from big donors...this should tell you something.

Rick Perry is the most conservative candidate who is also electable.

I could accept Perry's level of conservatism - though it lacks.

The problem is that he is not electable. He can't articulate his thoughts clearly or handle himself in a debate.

Whenever a perplexing question taps his ears, his brain falls down and his mouth starts stumbling aimlessly about the room knocking over lamps.

I don’t think I would disregard Perry’s accomplishments. Who else has his kind of record? It certainly isn’t Romney, Cain, or Bachmann. Newt is a possibility; as well as Santorum being a possibility. Forget Huntsman.

Perry cannot communicate well under pressure - never has. Obama would clean his plate.

Pandering to illegals and the fact that it was just revealed he’s been a useful idiot for the RINO establishment to prevent the rise of a legitimate Tea Party Conservative are two HUGE reasons to thoroughly discount this fraud.

But CSI007 (in post #2) was CRITICIZING Perry.

Pointy Boots Perry is just another established, entrenched politician.


Did you support him for his re-election as governor? Heck if enough would have sent him packing last year then we wouldn’t have this endeavor to put up with now.

Give Perry another month or two to spend his $15 million and we’ll see where he stands amongst the mix of remaining candidates. ....

Christian conservatives don’t break down that easily. I am not just limping away in my support, and it doesn’t look like Perry is either. We’ll all see where the Good Lord leads, but I don’t think Perry will just give up like Fred Thompson did.

Just say NO to La Raza Rick

This is a thread about Rick Perry, not the boogey man of your nightmares.

Your post if offensive. Rick Perry has worked hard to combat illegal immigration. What Reagan Revolution? You mean the man who gave amnesty to all illegal aliens. You mean the man who also used to be a Democrat. It’s okay for Ronald Reagan to give amnesty, but if Rick Perry gives instate tuition to a limited number of illegals it discredits his over ten years of experience.

You are like the people who support and have supported Barack Obama. Facts are elastic and you stretch them to suit your concept of how it should be. Either Reagan and Perry are Communists, or they are patriots. I think they patriots.

"This is a thread about Rick Perry, not the boogey man of your nightmares."

He will be everyone's nightmare (except La Raza) if he ever becomes president.
