I know all about electric fences re: livestock. Cain specifically said these would have voltage that would kill people.
Sure, that’s believable.
Back atchyah;)
These are the times that try men’s souls - country girls too.
We had a low voltage fence for a couple of ponies. One of the kids was standing in a puddle, slipped and grabbed the wire. Had a helluva time trying to pry her loose - before we could reach the switch. No, seriously, I was a great parent!
I disagree that the media had much to do w/Perry's freefall. Conservatives don't listen to the media. Perry's undoing was Perry's alone. In other times, we might have been more patient, but this guy didn't even try to get his act together. Debate after debate, he never improved his performance. Used the same old tired lines when he knew the same old tired questions were coming his way. I'm still disgusted that he didn't have his plan ready for the last debate. I wouldn't put up with my 6th grader pulling that. Get your report done without excuses. I certainly don't want a president like that. (btw, I'm not an anti-Perry bot or anything. I was a supporter, but he lost me time & time again. He never even tried).
I have no problem with electric fences around nuclear facilities.
Defense of the country is pro-life; as is self defense...we will have to agree to disagree.
Ronald Reagan stated he had just signed legislation to outlaw the Soviet Union and said the bombing would start in 5 minutes...would you not vote for him, were he here today?
Cain is right...people need to lighten up.
Ouch!!!!! My grandfather used low voltage fences too. Our parents had us scared to death of them. For just that reason.And I have no doubt you are a wonderful parent. I knew that.
You are comparing Reagan to Cain? Never the twain shall meet. And yes I would vote for him if he was here today. I did then.
We can agree to disagee and in doing so I can and do still respect your opinion. And terrorists trying to gain access to our nuclear facilities? I say...Light ‘em up!
I voted for Reagan both times. If Cain somehow falters, I expect I will be voting for Reagan again this time.
Absolutely. I am with you. I had high hopes for Cain.
Where we disagree is that I still have high hopes and confidence in Cain.
Herman Cain is where he is in the race precisely because he is an honest NON-politician; an American with a record of success in all he undertakes. Read “This is Herman Cain” and people will understand why he wins most of the straw polls. His integrity shines through like a laser beam!
It isn’t about him, it’s about his country! Herman Cain is the one the Left most fears because he doesn’t rely on rhetoric or platitudes. He isn’t afraid to say it the way it is! Herman Cain is not looking to gain personal power for himself. Herman Cain has good solutions in his toolbox to repair the damage done in the past 23 years. Why? To make America a strong and prosperous nation again.
Herman Cain is an able leader.
Good point. But the liberal media tried to make him unelectable so they put on the smear campaign with the racist hunting range story and he hasn’t been able to recover from it since. In conversations with other conservatives, it makes them uneasy when stories like this come out.
I hope against hope you are right! We need someone. It is going to be painful tonight to watch Perry. I am already cringing. Why dont I drink? Someone remind me please.
Yesiree;)
I’m a grandparent now - and I have never felt so terrified in my life.
When my kids were small, I probably should have been more concerned about Carter - but then along came R. Reagan who made it possible for parents to attend to our lives, work hard & relax.
Did you ever think we would have communists in the WH? I don’t know anyone who ever believed it was possible without a Russian invasion.
I understand ..I am the grandmother of an 8 year old boy. I empathize with your fears. It isnt like when we were raising our children, is it?
