A smile like Joe Isuzu’s and a frown like Leonid Brezhnev’s. Not an easy sell.
“GARDASIL” sounds so long ago.
Why can’t people just say, “Thank you Governor Perry for your service to running for President. You did good and have a bright future.” Why the cattiness when he dropped out. Doesn’t make a bit of sense.
THANK YOU, Texas (155 delegates) & Gov Perry!
GO NEWT!!!
Speaker Gingrich-led Republicans….the result: * Voting on each of the Contract with America items * Four consecutive balanced budgets * Over $400 billion of debt paid off * Major welfare reform accomplished * 11 million new jobs for America * Unemployment falling to under 4%.
"He coulda been a contender."
LOL
Nice try.
But here’s the real truth...
Perry Drops Out. Endorses Newt. Will Campaign and Serve.

Live Thread: Perry Press Conference [Endorses Newt]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2834946/posts
Perry’s plans to help, going forward.
To shrink the size and scope and power of the Federal Government through his Governors connections and connections with Newt Gingrich.
Positive comments from FReepers thanking the Governor for his action and supporting the contribution to this country he will continue to make.
The more I got to know Rick Perry; the more I liked him. What is the point of a post like this? It reflects on the poster, not Rick Perry. How sad to be so small-minded.
Perry supporters, you’re true conservatives and we still love and respect ya!
Hope Newt warned Perry of the mob out there who will be salivating to pick over his bones, mock him, and generally denigrate him, but all that carcass eating will come to be as much about Perry’s support for Newt as it will ever be about Rick Perry himself and his failed campaign.
Rick was ill served by his campaign from the beginning and was not anywhere near recovered well enough from his back surgery in Germany to mount a campaign that was already a late entry.
Hat’s off to a conservative who proved it for 10 years and only three bloopers. TEXAS WAS ALWAYS EXHIBIT A.
Perry’s rapid decline and inability to get out of the ditch was Bush’s fault. Seriously, he fell victim to the Bush bumpkin syndrome. We hear over and over again that conservatives are foolishly hoping for another Reagan, but what we are really looking for is our own slickster, a clear speaker, solid debater, no shucks and gollys and good ol’ boy colloquialisms. We are looking for the candidate who won’t embarrass us, and we are going to wind up with a real piece of crap, or Obama, if we don’t get a grip.
Perry was one of several satisfactory choices still in the race, but I’m glad he’s dropping out. This improves our chances of having a real candidate instead of Romney (not that I’m completely thrilled with either Newt or Santorum). I hope that Newt/Santorum will put Perry in his administration, not out of gratitude but out of respect for the character that Perry showed in making this decision while he still had a reasonable shot at moving up in the presidential race.
.
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:

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.
