The same idiot so-cons who followed Huckabee around like he was the Pie-eyed piper of Hamelin.......

There’s nothing conservative at all about many of these the Evangelicals. Many seem to love socialism and big gub’mint.

I bet none of these dopes asked Perry why he supported ultra-RINO Rudy Giuliani during the last election cycle. “Electability,” maybe?

I don’t care if they’re conservative or not. They don’t really lead anyone.

Do they really expect us to believe all this or is it some kind of psychological operation? Gomer Huckleberry’s daughter just signed on to help Tiny Tim in Iowa, so this makes very little sense.

Could this possibly be due to the fact that just like Rick Perry, the leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention want amnesty for illegals?

As a member of the "Christian right" and a self-identified "leader", I refute that statement. I think Perry is a decent human being, but he is not my "preferred candidate".

They don’t at Liberty University...

Seriously, though, most average Evangelicals are anti-big gov’t. One of these “leaders” is a downright heretic: John Hagee thinks that Jesus didn’t come to be the Messiah. Yes, the media is calling that guy a leader of the Evangelical movement.

You are misusing the wrong terms.

RIck Perry is a RINO ~ an honest to gosh real RINO. He was actually elected to public office as a Democrat, and he was the Texas Gore campaign coordinator.

RINO RINO RINO RINO RINO RINO.

As far as the Evangelical choice in this race you really need to check with some Evangelicals.

Checking with Fundamentalists or Pentecostals doesn't get you there.

BTW, lately the Leftwingtards have been accusing the Catholics and Amish (both Apostolic organizations) of being Evangelicals ~

Referring to "the Huck" himsel. All you guys out there are related to a whole big bunch of folks back in Indiana ~ hence the commonality of names for counties, towns, even rivers.

The main tie in for "the Huck", probably yourself, and many of my relatives is a place called Sand Creek KY. Abe Lincoln ties in there too.

It was settled quite some time before things stabilized North of the Ohio. Then folks moved North, and by 1812 or so they moved to Missouri and Arkansas.

I don’t think we can use the above as a basis for calling someone a RINO. After all, the Sainted Ronald Reagan WAS a Democrat before he turned Republican. He campaigned for Harry Truman.

I’ll gladly exchange an egotistical Gov. Perry for a communist Pres. Obama today and every day.

I’d take Perry over every other announced candidate to date. I like some of them, but don’t think
they will beat Obie.

I’ll gladly take a guy who got his head handed to him about vaccinations over a guy who believes
he rules by fiat.

After you all fight it out and point out the flaws of every candidate, we’ll still be left with
a candidate with warts. I know Perry’s warts. I don’t like them, but I can live with them.

I’ve decided I’m gonna support Perry, despite the nit-picking. I don’t think he’s a Huckabee or a George W. Bush either, for what’s it worth. He’s definitely not a Mitt Romney, IMHO. But until he actually declares, I guess Bachman’s my candidate...
