I agree but instead he called us “heartless” and it was all downhill from there.

Yes, I can see that you clearly know about those behaviors and that sage wisdom of yours about too old to change. Yes. I do see some obsessive-commpulsive going on, and that rigidity forever thing. Thank you for sharing. Another clinger I believe I put it, upthread. How’s that nit rolling goin’ for ya’, anyway?

It appears childish people like you never outgrow it either. I guess at your age you’re too old to grow up and mature.

Santorum may be a real Catholic but I doubt you are.

Santorum needs to put his ego aside, place his country before himself, drop out and go back to wherever he came from.

Rick Perry is twice the Conservative Santorum is!
He deserves the VP slot.

Since 2000 he has led the second largest state in the union on to be the most successful economically.

Perry stated that in his administration he would start all countries getting U.S. foreign aid at ZERO, until they proved to be our allies.

He was also the first to bring the war on religion to the forefront.

Take a look at RINO Santorum’s voting record:

Santorum:

Voted AGAINST increasing the number of immigration investigators:
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=2&vote=00201

VOTED AGAINST HIRING AN ADDITIONAL 1,000 BORDER PATROL AGENTS, paid for by reductions in state grants.
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=1&vote=00179

VOTED TO GIVE SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=105&session=1&vote=00058

Voted to allow illegal immigrants to receive the earned income credit before becoming citizens.
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=2&vote=00154

SANTORUM: Trim Social Security now- even if painful.

http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=1&vote=00353

VOTED AGAINST MEDICAID REFORM
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=1&vote=00352

http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=106&session=1&vote=00302

VOTED TO RAID SOCIAL SECURITY instead of using surpluses to pay down the debt.
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=106&session=2&vote=00056

Voted to impose a uniform federal tax mandate on states to force them to allow convicted , rapists, arsonists drug kingpins and all other ex-convicts to vote in federal elections.
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=107&session=2&vote=00031

Some are moved on pure emotion (absolute hate; absolute love) in politics. Thought never enters the picture. This is the conservatives’ “O baaaaa ma, O baaaa ma” representation. Screw them.

Given the behavior and language of his partisans, it could not possibly have gone any other way.

They damaged him close to half as much as his record and debating performance. And the only people who could not see the damage they were doing to his candidacy was them.

The BEST governor in all the states. Not perfect but who the hell is? I’m happy to keep him here in Texas. We’ve done better then most states, even as 0 ties Perry’s hands.

But it’s only a matter of time when 0 gets his claws in Texas’ because the fix is in again. The media control everything and then the fraud finishes it.

So sad for this great country. Happy to be old and most likely outa here before it finally crashes altogether.

I bet my deceased democrat grandfather is turning over in his grave. It’s one thing to be a real democrat of long-long ago compared with WHAT they are today. The communist/muslim party IMHO

However, the real Republicans have NO smarts or nads and they give in way too easy for whatever reason.

It doesn’t help that they don’t want to rile the left and they want to stay in the good grace of the leftist elite club.

The land and money grabbing scam of the Trans-Texas Corridor finished Perry for me. Plus his legacy of trying to turn our Major highways into un-Texican toll roads. Then when I heard he wanted to be President I prayed “Please G*d, No!” now my plea has been heard and answered.

I don’t know if I agree with that. He pretty much made his bed. Nobody could have a result like that with just complaining about a guy. I don’t think people are that powerful.

Right On!!! I supported Perry and voted for him in 1998. But once the Cintra people got a hold of him, and he went on his toll road spree...that was it for me. It still bites living in a state as conservative as Texas, and still having him as governor, but after this campaign, I think people even here (me included) know our governor much better now and he’ll find the political waters of Texas a bit more crowded.
