1. Perry refused to allow Hispanics to be educated in English, and preferring Mexico-supplied history books which inculcate them with a hatred of America.
2. Perry violated the spirit and letter of conservative-supported federal law which prohibits giving illegal aliens preference over American students in state-run tuition breaks.
3. Perry subverts conservative-supported federal law, by interfering with the construction of the border fence. The law is that it must be built. Incredibly, he claims the reason he opposes it isn't because of his zealous crusade to flood the American job market with cheap labor, but on the grounds that violates private property. But...
4. Perry Initiated on the most massive state campaign to subvert private property by abusing eminent domain to try to build a superhighway allowing Mexican truckers and coyotes access to America’s heartland, while denying access to this highway by actual Americans
5. Perry opposes the implementation of E-Verify, and feeding his Perrytards with lies and disinformation against E-Verify. Despite years of searching, liberals have yet to find the American who lost his job because of E-Verify. Contrary to Perrytards’ lies, E-Verify does NOT create any new databases, stores, or even associations for any worker, but merely allows employers to check existing social-security data.
Good points all.
You’ve done a good job in nailing some of the more troubling aspects of Gov.Perry’s performance in Texas, but unfortunately, by no means is it a complete list.
He is not presidential material.
I’m surprised at you, AB. You almost sound like you’re defending Perry, who believes in abortion when the father desires covering up his molestation. After all, that’s what we’re talking about when we’re talking about exemptions for abortion in the case of incest: letting the rapist cover up his crime by destroying the evidence, so he continue to rape his victim over and over and over again. I guess allowing rapists to kill babies to cover up their crime is what passes for “compassionate conservatism” in Texas.
Was Perry being pro-life when he endorsed Al “people are what’s killing the planet” Gore?
I hope you put on your kevlar. There’s gonna be frags all over this place. There’s a host of Perry fans who don’t wanna hear what Perry has done, and does. Plus, they don’t care who they frag to promote their “savior.”
I don’t know about you, but I have an aversion for people who preach Jesus to me while holding a sniper weapon. There’s simply something very wrong with that picture.
Anyway, I hope you survive the onslaught. Remember the Alamo?
Perry doesn’t. Heck, he probably never heard of it. He’s probably never even been to San Antonio. If he had, he wouldn’t be so anxious to reward illegals.
He had veto power. He failed to use it. If he had used it, then he would be clear of this title of an illegal immigrant fan who rewards illegal immigration.
Besides, AB, given the prevalence of libtard and Paultard on this forum, I thought Perrytard was quite fitting. Please don’t tell me you consider snarky nicknames “idiotic neologisms.” I grew up on Rush Limbaugh, man!
Thanks. I was wearing my Kevlar.
You should go with the perfect candidate.
Same. IMO, the use of such terminology tends to discredit the position taken by the user.
“Same. IMO, the use of such terminology tends to discredit the position taken by the user.”
Only if you don’t have a sense of humor.
Thank you. :^)
At the moment, I'm defending honest discourse. It's somewhat disappointing to find you on the wrong side of that issue.
< Shrug >
If you want to discredit yourself and your position with idiotic rhetoric, that's your problem.
I'm just calling it like it is.
As a matter of fact, that's precisely what they are.
I quit listening to Limbaugh years ago. I have a brain, and I know how to use it.
Personal attacks also tend to discredit the attacker.
Brilliant thread and every bit of it is true. Get rid of Perry immediately!!! Cain 2012.
A source of further details about allegation #1 would be most welcome. If Perry wanted to accommodate the wishes of Mexico in how to school visiting Mexicans, that’s hardly a treason to the United States. Of course, Mexico should not have any say in how to school US citizens of any race.
At issue is what Texas misleadingly calls “bilingual education.” In theory, bilingual education places English and Spanish speakers in a class together where both languages are used. In Texas practice, bilingual education means creating segregated classrooms where only Spanish is used for “Spanish” speakers. It’s so bad that parents with Hispanic last names have had to sue to allow their children to be placed in English classrooms... because their children didn’t speak a word of English!
In California, such practices were banned by Proposition 227. California had once had one of the top education systems in America... until they implemented bilingual education. After 227, California’s education system soared once again. (The official arguments for and against 227 were presented by Jaime Escalante, of Stand of Deliver fame, presenting the arguments in favor of 227, while the guy who played him in the movie presented the arguments in favor of bilingual education!) Dropout rates were also slashed. Arizona followed suit, and saw its students’ test scores also soar, and dropout rates plummet.
In Texas, the bilingual education system is particularly perverse, since Mexico “offered” to provide textbooks to Texas, and was found to providing textbooks which argued that Texas had been stolen from Mexico, that Mexico should reconquer the US Southwest, and that the Texans killed at the Alamo were cowardly war criminals.
And these weren’t given to “visitors.” “Invaders” would be more apt, since the recipients plainly had no intention of going “home.” Except for those unfortunate gringos with Spanish last names, for whom truly America was home.
That is quite a scandal of itself if as stated. Keystone Kops placed in charge of board of education? Why didn’t students with Chinese names get put in Chinese classes, etc.? Still a primary source would be welcome.
You beat your mother right? When did you stop? Oh, really?
Can’t refute a word I wrote, can you?
The wrong person might read this, if they were the right person, and wonder if you stepped in something while walking on your head. What is slander worth to you?
Heh.
