Sarah Palin will endorse whoever she wants; I will vote for whoever I think will serve the nation - or I won’t vote at all.

My opinion is my own, and no “talking point” involved.

I labeled your post ‘well thought out’ because you just didn’t attack me like other Perry supporters do. And I’ve voted for the lesser of two evils before also when I voted for Arnold as my governor and when I voted for Bush in 2004. I refuse to do that again, I think we can do better.

I am not comparing you, or others, to Pissant with respect to his vulgar misogynistic posts, but Pissant posted many articles from leftists in order to bash Palin, and these articles were about Palin’s record, often distorted, taken out of context, or not weighed against the rest of her record. The prime example of that were the hit pieces about her quitting which, at face value, seems horrible but in the context of what she was going through, it was the right decision. We should give Perry the same consideration. I used Pissant as an example because he is best known for bashing Palin in this manner.

Perhaps I should have voted for Farook Shami in the last go around LoL

I don’t even understand your barbed reply about being glad that I only had one vote.

Or was that sarcarsm?

Plenty of polls show Palin with strong electability. Right now, when you consider that 4 out of 5 undecideds break for the challenger, she’s generally running neck and neck with Obama. And she hasn’t even declared yet.

There’s a difference between disputing facts and interpretation of various poll numbers and sticking metaphorical fingers in their ears, as many Perry supporters seem to do in response to damaging information.

I just find it fascinating that the Palinites here would rather smear Rick Perry than tout their own candidate who went to Texas and campaigned for Perry last year. Of course, they call it “research” but it’s really just another hit piece based on the same smears and lies that have been covered in hundreds of other threads.

What’s the matter? Afraid Sarah can’t beat him head-to-head?

Well, that’s the entire problem on FR IMHO.

We get into these intense internal firewars.
Debate gets squelched. Its just one fire bomb after another.

Nov 2012 is a long ways off. We’ll see what shakes loose.

You did right, that being said, the fact that you even considered Kinky Friedman is, well, frankly a bit scary.

“My opinion is my own, and no “talking point” involved.”

Then quit using the talking point that Sarah was only following Reagan’s 11th commandment by not saying anything negative about Perry. It’s a lie and you know it.

The manner of the TTC really pissed me off.

What can I say?

I would rather drive a dirt road than pay tolls to another nation.
Then there was the matter of eminent domain.

That said, Perry and others where trying to figure out a way to cope with future growth without imposing an income tax.
It was moving to fast, and the people Killed the idea.

One blogger commenting on another. No wonder people don’t want to read blogs.

Really? As a Texan I call bs to most of the information contained in your article b.s..
As a mother of a teenage daughter, we raised heck in this state over the fact Perry was going to mandate the use of Gardasil. The mandate never happened.

Is that what I was trying to do?

In effect, yes.

Further, I need not explain myself to anyone. Not even you.

I checked the list this morning.

You're not on it.

Go look stuff up.

I sought a cogent rebuttal to the issues raised in BC's piece. Instead, you respond with juvenile one-liners and supercilious assertations with commands to 'look stuff up'. Apparently you have no real argument against the contentions raised by Brice, but just enjoy posting snarky replies to anyone who questions your abrupt dismissal of issues that, for conservatives, reflect poorly on Texas Governor Rick Perry. O.K. I had once thought Rick Perry might be my fall-back candidate if Sarah Palin declined to run but at this point, I'm beginning to think not. Perry is going to be vetted, one way or another, whether his supporters like it or not. That cannot and should not be avoided. If the only response to negative assertions about Perry's record from his supporters are arrogant brush-offs, devoid of facts but with lots of attitude, he won't survive the vetting. So be it.

I find your remarks frightfully bigoted and ignorant, I am sorry to say.

Nevertheless, I can only suggest that everyone do their own research and decide on their own. Nothing could be less controversial, so I trust you won’t disagree with that. :)

The Aga Khan is not an unknown or a newcomer. He came to his position over 50 years ago. There is a very long record on which to make an informed judgment, if one desires.

And the larger issue is Rick Perry. He’s been governor for around 10 years. Plenty of material there too.

Reasonable freepers do not accept guilt by association, and this is a case of guilt by association with someone guilty by association.

Sometimes gba is verifiable. Sometimes not.

First, get informed.

How about folks who seem to have good sense yet fall in with a crowd that doesn't?

Look in the mirror.

And that’s what sets Perry apart.

He actually listens to his constituents.

Kind of like when you wanted me to research my position for you?

I had once thought Rick Perry might be my fall-back candidate if Sarah Palin declined to run but at this point, I'm beginning to think not.

By God, we're all lost without you! Say us a prayer.

Look, just because someone writes something does not mean it is true.
Especially if someone sets out to write a Perry hit-piece.

I hope you are sophisticated enough not to fall for that.

If the only response to negative assertions about Perry's record from his supporters are arrogant brush-offs, devoid of facts but with lots of attitude, he won't survive the vetting.

I fear you overestimate my impact upon world events.

Hey, lot's of folks do. It's OK.

As a reluctant Perry voter, I must say, I admire the mans tenacity and moxie.

He was the First gov that I know of to stick his finger in Obamas chest.
He is fighting Obamas EPA on energy even as we speak.

Obama really doesn’t want to tangle with this guy in public.
He has made all his rebuttals covertly through the courts and Perry has doubled down on them all through the courts.

Now we are going to have a public debate.
