RICK PERRY IS DONE
National Spotlight ^ | 11/2/11 | Derek Petrella

Posted on 11/02/2011 9:35:32 AM PDT by NationalSpotlight

After Governor Rick Perry gave a speech in New Hampshire last week, he should pack his bags and kiss his hopes of winning the White House goodbye. When you are running for President of the United States, the highest office in the land, you do not go up on stage and make a fool out of yourself! Perry must have consumed several martinis or even shots of Captain Morgan. He was clearly buzzed while speaking to supporters in New Hampshire. After the speech, Perry was embracing a bottle of maple syrup the same way he would embrace his dream girl. This bizarre episode makes Rick Perry into a clown who laughs at his own jokes. Rick Perry is no longer considered a serious presidential candidate vying for the Republican nomination.

National Spotlight decided to endorse Rick Perry because of his jobs record and conservative values. Since Perry announced his candidacy, it has been all downhill. Perry cannot debate to save his life. Every time Perry attacked Mitt Romney, he lost the battle. Perry failed to explain his position on immigration, social security, and his HPV vaccine program. And the Republican Party expects Perry to beat President Obama in a debate! Not going to happen. Perry has failed to articulate the conservative message and communicate his outstanding jobs record to voters. Furthermore, it took him months to propose his flat tax plan. Perry only did this because Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan was gaining traction. From the start, Perry was never disciplined and serious about becoming president. Rick Perry is out of control and will continue to be a virus that is slowly destroying his campaign.

The Republican field, as it currently stands, is so disappointing and embarrassing. Everyone thought Rick Perry was the guy to take out Mitt Romney. On the other hand, Rick Perry has proven that he is not presidential. Herman Cain's answer to abortion leaves the audience with questions: "Is Herman Cain pro-life or pro-choice?" As someone who is not a politician, he told the truth the first time: he is pro-choice. Now, Herman Cain is in a mess with a sexual harassment scandal. If the accusers are legitimate, then Herman Cain is in major trouble. The rest of the field is not legitimate at all or does not have a chance to win the Republican nomination for President. The Republican Party will most likely nominate the rich elitist governor from the liberal state of Massachusetts: Mitt Romney. Historians will look back and say: what was the Republican Party thinking when they put up a weak field against a weak incumbent President!?

National Spotlight has decided to withdraw its support for Rick Perry. His campaign and Rick Perry himself should take a long look at the mirror or its going to be an eternal struggle in the wilderness. Don't get me wrong, Perry still has a shot at the nomination. However, Perry's actions are embarrassing and immoral. Rick Perry is a bad reflection in the mirror for a future President of the United States.

He said it is not right for the government to make the decision for the family on whether or not they should have an abortion

Liar.

Cain said that in response to a question as to whether a family should be forced to RAISE a child conceived of rape when they would not be allowed an abortion.

You can't even get your facts straight, why the hell should anyone listen to you, troll boy?

Gee, Perry should pull out of the race right now, since some lone blogger referring to himself as "National Spotlight" has withdrew his endorsement.

When Rick Perry is POTUS you will still be the:

'National Spotlight: Bringing insight and news to a handful of people every day!'.

“Oh good grief. Anyone watching the full, original video knows he was just having fun with a crowd he was comfortable with”

You are exactly right. I would like to know who is behind posting this krap.

I think in this case, ‘stupid is as stupid does’ is more applicable.

So if the family does not want to have the child, then what happens: abortion

Does the Romney campaign pay you for the number of clicks to your “website”? If so, here’s ten bucks...have the mods pull this thread.

You lie yet again. If the family doesn’t want to raise the child, what happens is adoption, troll-boy.

So. You’re anti-Perry AND anti-Cain.

Look. Why not just out yourself and tell us why you think we should all just vote for Mitt?

I’ve listened to both and provided transcripts to both and both are being falsly spun. In the Piers Morgan interview, it is clear he is talking about ‘raising’ the child and he even called out Morgan on changing the topic to raising before he answered the question.

In the Stossel interview, he plainly said the government should have no role in making any type of abortion legal. He said this right after saying that all abortions should be illegal. He was answering a question specifically if the government should make it legal for rape or incest.

If you are going to survive here, you should work on your critical thinking. You seem to be more of a media tool accepting whatever storyline they give you.

Hell, even Red State who came out first regarding the interview recanted when they looked at Cain’s history and watched the full interviews in context.

I don’t support Perry. I am calling you on your crappy analysis and out-and-out lies.

People who attended the event said it was a very good speech any one can use selected tidbits of any speech to make the speaker look bad.

Whoever posted the video thought he was drunk. People attending the event are going to say he wasnt drunk because they already support him. Anything he says is great no matter what he does.

Is bearing false witness a common practice for you?

I think this blogger is extremely lazy. He takes spin from other sources and just regurgitates it without checking into its veracity. He has managed to mix two such stories in this thread.

So in other words, he adds absolutely nothing to the news and analysis process.
