Only if you know the secret password...
Perhaps I overdid it with the idioms in my post. Point is, Palin has been doing lots of things over the last year or so that are entirely consistent with someone who's planning a run for the presidency.
One or two could be explained away as coincidental, but taken in aggregate, there's no mistaking what she's doing.
You're saying it was optional? Everything I've read regarding Perry's EO says either 'mandatory' or 'required' for girls prior to entering 6th grade to receive the three-shot vaccination series.
Friday, February 02, 2007 • Press Release
AUSTIN – Gov. Rick Perry today issued an executive order directing the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) to adopt rules requiring all girls age 11 and 12 to receive the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine prior to entering sixth grade, effective September 2008. The executive order also directs...
In response to his refusal to rescind that EO, the Texas House passed HB 1098 on March 14, 2007, overturning his executive order by a vote of 119-21 and the Senate agreed with a vote of 30-1.
However, in support of your claim that it wasn't 'mandatory' or "required' the press release stated "Parents may choose to opt out of mandatory vaccinations for reasons of conscience, including religious beliefs."
Please correct me if I am mistaken. I have done some research into Perry's background and track record, but I do make mistakes occasionally and do my best to own up to and correct them.
...wishing or voting for Obama over Perry is about as rational as pouring acid on your face to clear up your acne.
Just to be clear, I would never vote for obama. Never have. Never will. I never have thought, uttered or written a single word in support of obama. Or Reid. Or Pelousy and their progressive agenda to destroy and remake our Republic.
So, you claim Gardasil wasn't mandatory, but everything I've read says it was.
You then soften it by saying that vaccines make the world a better place and I agree...unless your side effects are worse than the disease the vaccine or drug was to prevent. Saw a lot of that when I was in grade school with kids born with Thalidomide related birth defects. I'm not as trusting as you are.
Then, you leap to a conclusion based on facts not in evidence by anything I've ever said or posted regarding supporting obama over Perry.
Insulting me won't make me vote for your candidate.
I humbly suggest that your thinking and reasoning would benefit from greater clarity and that is the basis for my reply.
I stand by my opinion that Perry is not to be trusted with real power.
You're buying the Romney and media spin. If she runs she'll have plenty of time to make her case, that's what a campaign is for.
"tax on profits that result from a sudden windfall to a particular company or industry."
Okay, now explain to me howa tax structure that graduates based on progressive oil income revenues does not meet this criteria?
Good point BTM, however it also did put Perry in a bad light!
So hopefully, Sarah was aware of this before she forwarded the article, surely she read it and picked up on that.
Surely she now knows how her supporters are receiving this, at the very least.
When you say "state level" which state are you referring to? Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, or California?
Windflier got his directly from Captain America........who got it from a cereal box........
:-)
People endorse each other all the time, when you endorse someone you say wonderful things about them, that`s how it works.
I think a while back when Sarah mentioned Perry would be a good person to run, I think she was sure at that point that he was NOT running.
My point is that Palin has not been a border state governer and isn’t saddled with all the federal mandates to pay for the care and feeding of illegals. The 4 border states are the defacto rest stop/welcome center for the illegals. And the states get stuck with the bills.
Add to that all the intentional destruction of industry here in Texas by obama and yep, the state’s debt has probably tripled.
As for GW Bush ignoring the border, your right. He was the governer of Texas and lived a half day’s drive from the border. You would have thought he would have done something about the southern border while he was president. He never did. There is no excuse for that especially since he was so big on national security. Will never understand that thinking.
I am not a big Sarah fan (I favor nobody at this point) but my fiancee is. She's a paralegal at a mid-sized firm that specializes in Real Estate law and is not particularly political by nature. Her attraction to Sarah was based on the Sarah we were seeing just before and for a few months after the election of 2008. As of late, her enthusiasm for Sarah is running dry as is her patience.
As for me...I repeat, I am not a big fan of anybody at this point.
An Introduction to Sarah Palin-omics
Former state Representatives Pete Kott and Vic Kohring have been convicted taking bribes from oil company executives in Alaska. Using the oil profits tax passed in 2006, these politicians literally used their offices to steal money from the citizens of Alaska. Governor Sarah Palin would have none of it, and set to work to correct the problem and return that money to Alaskan residents...
Governor Palin did what any conservative worth their own soul would have done. She gave tax dollars that were literally stolen from Alaskan taxpayers right back to them and appropriately reversed corrupt tax policy. Not only did she bring ethics back to the tax policy in regards to the oil industry in Alaska, she improved the policy itself in her proposal.
The tax raises when oil prices are high, and falls when oil prices are low. This gives amazing incentive for the oil companies to produce more oil, which increases supply, and lowers prices for everyone including the taxes they themselves pay the state. When oil prices are low the tax moves to a 10 percent tax on the gross, instead of the net tax of 25% when prices are high. Instead of, not in addition to. The oil companies in Alaska with the Palin proposal pay the state minus their operating expenses along with pipeline and tanker charges. In this way, the oil companies are not taxed for the cost of doing business.
Anymore boogiemen under your bed?
Will never understand that thinking.
And we should be celebrating!
So, you don't really follow Sarah's activities all that closely, yet you're sure that you detect that she's not running?
Not sure how you figure out what someone's doing by hardly watching them, but ok.
Security breach!
I have several acquaintances with young daughters, none have had the shots and they are in TX public schools.
