If Rudy911 can’t win NY, he can’t win a race for dog-catcher. He’s toast after Super-Duper-Mega-Oh-Holy-Crap Tuesday, if he even sticks around past Florida.
“Well, a couple days ago, Gov. Rick Perry was on Fox. He was in Florida with Giuliani and endorsed him months ago. Perry had also given huge Texas contact work to Rudy’s law firm in Texas. They are joined at the hip and Perry would have been his VP.
Anyway, on Fox, Perry said Rudy was the closest to R. Reagan than any other candidate. My husband and I looked at each other and were speechless. We are both Texas Republican activists. I hope Perry is crying in his coffee about now while he takes in the Florida sunshine. Maybe Florida could just keep him as he is done in Texas politics.”
We in Texas know Perry is a sellout. Bracewell & Guilini and TTC. Look it up. This is about a lobbyist-suckup and VP-wannabe looking out for #1, not about a principled endorsement.
Yeah, another reminder that Guiliani has many issues and runs with the wrong crowd.
“We in Texas know Perry is a sellout. Bracewell & Guilini and TTC. Look it up. This is about a lobbyist-suckup and VP-wannabe looking out for #1, not about a principled endorsement.”
Yes, those are the contracts I was talking about. Perry knows he is at the end of his line in Texas and and I think he was depending on Rudy to propel him to national office. Perry has a book coming out in Feb. which showcases his “marvelous” conservative agenda in Texas. Think he was going to use that book to make him look great to be VP. Well, he shot that in this last legislature.
Texas Governor Rick Perry is being called to task by an author and investigative journalist for vetoing bills that would have blocked construction of the controversial Trans-Texas Corridor. Dr. Jerome Corsi has been one of the leading voices warning the American public about the consequences of the Trans-Texas Corridor, which will be part of a superhighway -- purported to be four football fields wide -- that will allow Mexican trucks to enter the U.S. and traverse the core of the country all the way to Canada.
The best-selling author asserts that Governor Perry cleared the way for construction to begin in his state when he vetoed several bills passed by the Legislature that would have stalled the project. "Governor Perry has been 100 percent gung-ho in building this road," says Corsi. "The Legislature voted a two-year moratorium, it voted a redefinition of eminent domain -- [and] Governor Perry vetoed them. [On] at least one of those measures, he waited until the Texas Legislature was out of session so it couldn't even override his veto."
Corsi says it is unfortunate that there has been political pressure to get the project started. "The Federal Highway Administration's lawyer wrote letters threatening the Texas Legislature to cut off federal highway funds if they got in the way of this Trans-Texas Corridor," he says.
Corsi believes the same pressure will be applied on other states, like Oklahoma, to go along with the project. He suggests that would mean a loss of more American jobs and could pose a threat to U.S. sovereignty.

In Mexico for trade talks, Perry blasts immigration policies
Houston Chronicle, Mexico City Bureau | Aug. 28, 2007 | DUDLEY ALTHAUS
Posted on 08/28/2007 5:35:20 PM PDT by Dubya
MEXICO CITY — Leading a large delegation of Texas executives trying to drum up business in Mexico, Gov. Rick Perry on Tuesday criticized the U.S. Congress for failing to pass an immigration bill that would legalize millions of workers. "I don't think this is that difficult an issue if Congress would have the maturity to sit down and really discuss it and cut out all the mean rhetoric," Perry said during a break in the third day of meetings with Mexican officials and business executives.

==================================================
COMMENT Gov Rick Perry does a Dixie Chick---he criticizes the US while in a foreign country. Is Perry collaborating with a foreign government to influence the policies of the US government on the issue of amnesty for illegals? Gov Perry endorsed Giuliani's candidacy-----does candidate Giuliani agree with collaborating with foreign governments to change US policies? We need rational leaders who understand the dimensions of the problem. Perry and Giuliani are not among this group.
===========================================
DO FLORIDA VOTERS KNOW WHETHER GIULIANI HAS SIMILAR PLANS FOR THEIR HIGHWAYS?
Here's Giuliani's idea of "border security."
Giuliani (with the help of Tex Gov Rick Perry) used eminent domain to take US properties from taxpayers and gave
them to foreign entities. (Gov Perry recently endorsed Giuliani's candidacy.)

NEWS STORY Bracewell & Giuliani Firm Advises Cintra in First Privatization of Toll Road in Texas
DALLAS (March 1, 2007) Bracewell & Giuliani LLP (Rudy's Texas-based law firm with global connections) advised Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A., a Spanish transportation company, in its successful bid to develop State Highway 121 into a toll road through Collin and Denton counties ("trade road" is four football fields wide). The award to Cintra, approved by the Texas Transportation Commission, is the first privatization of a Texas toll road. Bracewell is acting as project counsel to Cintra with respect to the 50-year concession from the Texas Department of Transportation. Cintra will pay a $2.1 billion upfront and annual lease payments totaling $700 million. "Cintra was awarded this project because of its proven expertise and competitive proposal," said Thomas O. Moore, partner with Bracewell & Giuliani. "This is the largest transportation deal of 2007. This is one of only five deals in the country."

Quit speading lies !
Rudy 911's key weakness in Flori-duh is that most of the NYC/NJ transplants are registered Democrats. My parents have neighbors in Boca who "respect" Rudy, but are voting for Hillary, both in the DEMOCRATIC primary and the election.
No surge for Rooody here!
Rudy was in DEEP doo-doo, and polls showed him LOSING to Hillary. He had health issues similar to those he used to excuse himself from the race, but those did not stop him from running for office. He just was too proud to go down to Hillary.
What is that supposed to mean ? The man had CANCER. While undergoing treatment for cancer it is not usually recommended to fight a political campaign with a b!tch like hillary.
I will agree to disagree. He had health issues throughout the campaign, but the breaking point was the fact that he saw that he was going to lose to Hillary.
Why did Rudy simply disappear from the scene ? What kind of tactic is that ? What the hell was he thinking ?
We Republicans have no one of great value running in my opinion . I have a bad feeling of what the outcome will be .
McDole08? Huckster? Julianne? I Switch2Mitt
You are unbelieveable. So you accept Romney’s flip-flops as a “convert” but McCain’s aren’t. Oh, ok.
You don’t really accept converts. You make excuses for your own candidate.
Liar! Here is the Senate record...he voted "guilty" click here
And don't call me "fool"!
It appears the S.S. rooty 911 has been torpedoed.
I can’t wait ‘till it sinks below the waves for good.
Almost there......
His goal was to let the other candidate beat eachother up as he concentrated on Florida and then the Super Tuesday states. With a divided race, and him spending so much time in Florida, it would position him for victory in the state with, as of the end of January, the most delegates.
As Ed Koch said on Steve Lazberg today “Rudy’s dead...forget about it!”
