Is NRP a conservative site, you know, as opposed to that liberal crap as you called it, from the Dallas Morning news?

Just for your edification, Sir, I actually think Rick Perry would make a good President of the United States. He’s not perfect and we have to slap him around the head sometimes, but our state is in very good shape, especially in comparison to yours. By the way, thanks for all the jobs you guys have sent our way, that Governor Perry has helped make very comfortable here and keep us nicely employed. :)

But...

Actually THIS TIME, being a good president is just not quite enough. We don’t have time to be slapping somebody around and making them go in the direction this country needs to go. We need somebody willing to hit the ground running in Washington, DC that will slash and burn it at least halfway to the ground. There is another candidate that has a proven record for doing that, including putting corrupt members of their own party in jail.

Perry would have to bone up from now until next November to be able to debate the lies of Obamajaad. And there is somebody already who has been doing that for going on now two years, while laying our domestic and foreign relations policy both. Hutchison almost crushed Perry in the Texas primary debates with her lies. If Texans didn’t know their stuff and know Hutchison is a socialist, and only depended on the debates, she would pro’bly now be down in Austin in the Mansion. Also Perry likes lots of praise and I’m not sure how he would handle the commiecrat press.

And besides I like having Rick Perry in the Governor’s Mansion because he does listen.

So my primary vote will be for another candidate should that candidate decide to run.

Now for your MOUTHING OFF about things you know nothing about, let me inform you. As I said before, prior to 2007, illegal immigration problem in Texas was not that bad. Mexican Nationals came up across our borders in five fingers and followed the harvests, and then returned to the homes they love in Mexico. They were able to live in high middle class status there. And the US could take the hit on the dollars leaving the country since it kept the price of food down and assisted our farmers. However when the commiecrats took power in 2007 and opened up every welfare program the many came and decided to squat. THEN it became a serious problem in Texas, and we lost control at the borders because heretofore it had not been a problem. THEN two years ago Obamajaad took office, the cartels and the terrorists started their move on our border, and the rest is history.

And there Sir, I hope you’ve learned a little something besides KRAP put out in commiecrat rats in California!

What about up in Dallas where Parkland Hospital is cranking out 1000 anchor babies per month...on the tax payers dime, At just one single Texas hospital..

Yeah, Perry's on the case...Big border guy!

A thousand anchor babies a month? lol What commie rag have you been reading? Actually Dallas and Houston are our two biggest sanctuary cities run by commiecrats.

Hmmm....Your statement seems a bit inconsistent there Mr. Rowdy.

What's up with that?

By the way, nothing inconsistant about it...I think I told you Parkland is in the middle of Dallas, a sanctuary city run by commiecrats...and I asked you if you believe everything they put out. That would include their statistics.

He wants to get elected. He knows we still have the same problem because he and the legislature have done nothing about securing the border except expel a lot of gas.

At what point did you decide controlling our borders became a state not a federal responsibility?

As a former Perry constituent, I can count on one hand the number of Republicans with any kind of national footprint who would do more damage to the conservative cause, or be softer on illegal immigration if they get anywhere near the Oval Office.

He’s being talked-up by NPR. That is really all you need to know.

Ms. Rowdy went on an on about how the Dallas morning news is a liberal rage.

Then conveniently evaded this question:

>Is the source of this article, the NRP a conservative site, you know, as opposed to that liberal crap as you called it, from the Dallas Morning news?<

More glaring inconsistencies from Ms. Rowdy.

Nobody’s perfect. Not even Palin, and she’s at the top of my list:

Palin
Perry
Bachmann
Cain

I’ve repeated my list over and over on these threads so that there is no question where I’m coming from.

A lot of Palin/Perry detractors don’t want to say upfront who they support, other than, seemingly, “somebody perfect”.

There’s nobody “perfect”.

The federal government claims the southwest border is more secure than it’s ever been.
Everyone feel safer now?. /s

This is what will define if or how a Texan will get back into the Whitehouse, it does seem like a lot of past Presidents do come from Texas.

This whole mess in the end is really the fault of We the People.

We have let politicians get away with peeing all over us...and calling it rain ..for decades. And we act surprised then when the consequences cost us.

As a nation we are reaping the consequences of being asleep at the wheel.

This is just another show by Perry to look good for his run for President. This is not his first big meaningless show.

Most people don’t understand that this is an invasion. And it’s not just drug cartels or Mexican nationals. When they go to the convenience store the many look just like the Mexican nationals, but they’re not. They’re speaking Urdu or Pushtan with the owners, not Spanish.

That's just it. We used to har about the BP picking up OTMs (other than Mexicans) but now days there's not a peep about them. We all know ME'erners are invading but once again the msm is ignoring the real news. OTOH, it could also be our own government that's stopping the flow of info on this special group of illegals.

KBH had a lot to do with stopping the fence when she opened it up to lawsuits. Where was Perry and the rest of our state leaders and why didn’t have have little sit down with her?
