Exclusive: Rick Perry's October Trip to Israel Sign of Another Whitehouse Bid
The Washington Times ^ | July 11, 2013 | The Washington Times

Posted on 07/12/2013 10:33:53 PM PDT by DRey

Texas Gov. Rick Perry said Thursday that he will visit Israel in October, a move that signals to the political world that he is seriously considering making another presidential run in 2016.

“We will be going to Israel to bring together Arabs, Christian and Jews in an educational forum,” Mr. Perry told The Washington Times in an interview just three days after he announced he would not seek an unprecedented fourth term as Texas governor.

Many analysts interpreted that decision as evidence that he is setting the table for a White House campaign. Asked what would induce him to announce a run, he told The Times that he has “plenty of time to make that decision.”

Yeah, yeah, yeah, La Raza Rick, La Raza Rick. No one buying that BS but the low info voters and yourself (well, maybe not even you). But whatever helps you sleep at night.

I didn't vote for that loser, either.

Well, thanks for your assistance to the patriot cause......yeah. Thanks a lot. You were very....helpful.

I understand Venezuela needs some help these days. You might want to go down there and...help...them.

"more informed than you will ever be" blah, blah

I assume you are suggesting I am somehow unaware Perry spoke to a booing crowd at La Raza?

Now who is uninformed?

The president at A&M announced his resignation today, and the rumor is Perry will be the next university president.

You shouldn't make much moronic assumptions. I never said you didn't know and I surely didn't post that so as to image to inform you. I posted it to support my comment that he is La Raza Rick, and he is.

Now who is uninformed?

That would be you for foolishly stating the he is not La Raza Rick. It could also be you because you apparently think nothing of La Raza Rick giving that racist organization his time. He and Obama have that in common. You should be proud.

If you think La Raza Rick could have defeated Obama you really are clueless

No. Just hopeful. He will be president, though, and certainly would have been better for the country than Obama, or Romney. As I recall, it took Reagan three runs to get it right, but you might want to Wikipedia me to make sure. ; )

my vote is not owed- especially to a lesser evil

I would sooner stay home

That attitude gave us BHO, second term.

Conservatives stayed at home rather than vote for Romney.

Romney was in last place as far as I was concerned in the primaries but I took my anti-nausia medication and went out and campaigned for the RINO.

Then on election day I voted for him because I knew this country may not survive another 4 years of BHO and the Democrats.

With a better conservative turn out we might have take the Senate and the Presidency.

We conservatives are not going to win back this country from the top. We have to pull the country to the Right at the state and local level. We have to choose young conservative candidates at the local level that will move up in the party. Then we have to fight hard to keep them conservative as the move up.

It has been more than 100 years since Progressivism stated destroying this country. Don’t expect to reverse that process in a few years. We are not going to win back our country by staying home when the party chooses a lip wristed candidate.

You might also remember that the Republican Party is not historically a conservative party. Teddy Roosevelt the first Progressive president was a Republican (and TR’s desire to win back the WH split the Republican vote and gave us the evil that was Wilson). Ronaldus Magnus was the first Conservative Republican President since Coolidge.

We conservatives are the invasive species in the Republican party. We will have to work hard to change the party’s nature. If we want the party to survive while we reform it we have to kiss a few toads until we find our prince.

How would YOU know?
They work everywhere they're tried, i.e. ISRAEL!
REAL border fences work, and that's why "Establishment Republicans" hate 'em!
Rick Perry is a fraud, and anyone who believe him is just stupid!

Hey, Southtard, please show me where I ever lowered myself to affirming OR denying Perry is "La Raza Rick"? Your obsession is bordering on psychosis. If you want to present things out of context about a good, Christian man running for the patriot team, you be my guest. I won't think less of you, I promise. That would be impossible.

But don't try to pull me into some ridiculous argument regarding the Governor of Texas when he quite courageously stood in front of a hostile audience and told the God's honest truth, regardless of its reception.

Rick Perry will never occupy the White House; he's just not that smart.

Actually, I was being kind...he really is a dumbass. But you never know; he could surprise us all and switch parties...he's done that before, you know. It's possible that with his history of supporting ILLEGAL aliens and other liberal policies he would have a chance as a dem.

And it did not take President Reagan "three runs to get it right"; he had it right from the start. Only a liberal would believe any different. But you're a supporter of a man with a record/history of supporting ILLEGAL aliens. So I can see why you wouldn't know that.

Looks like someone has never been to the Texas border! If you had, you would know that the areas that CAN be protected by fence ARE protected by fence...and are breached daily. The other 90% of the state is canyon and river and "other" that is NOT conducive to fencing. Derrrrrrrrr.

Try again.

You really are dense. Your post # 41.

The rest of your post is just more psychobabble and not worthy of my time.

Exactly what the Reagan haters said about Reagan. Exactly. Didn't pan out for them either, as I think even YOU would agree.

THAT’S a DENIAL? That no one is buying your bluster about his speech to La Raza?? Gee willickers, Southtard! I guess I shoulda informed you I wasn’t born in the ‘50s first. But yes, I agree with your last sentence. When losing an argument pitifully, slink away. Slink slowly away to regroup and lick wounds. Get some rest now, sugar. We’ll talk again.
