Wow! Rick Perry Threatens Bernanke, And Says More QE Would Be "Almost Treasonous"
Business Insider ^ | 8/15/11 | Joe Weisenthal & Zeke Miller

Posted on 08/15/2011 10:25:31 PM PDT by Nachum

The politicization of monetary policy being taken to a brand new level. ThinkProgress reports: Speaking just now in Iowa, Perry said, “If this guy prints more money between now and the election, I dunno what y’all would do to him in Iowa but we would treat him pretty ugly down in Texas. Printing more money to play politics at this particular time in history is almost treasonous in my opinion.” Treason is a capital offense. The remark appeared to be in response to a question from an attendee at the event, but it does not seem to be off the

You’re warning Rick? You’re on the wrong website. You’re SLANDERING Rick. That’s what you’re doing. You are eaten alive by him success and are so frustrated that Palin will not be able to beat him that you cannot stand yourself. So you’re slandering someone you know nothing about. Justify it however you like. You’re actions and judgement on a fellow Christian will need explaining, and not to me. Good night.

I think you’d best pray for yourself to no longer be deceived. Pray for Holy Spirit discernment. Then pray for Rick Perry to repent and truly give his heart to God. Then pray for America.

I’ll decide what I need to pray for, thank you. Now run along back to your cornfield.

The man has no, none, zero, back ground education in any section of business, hell he made a “c” in animal sex.

Doubtless he lacks your experience in the field.

I’m not trying to “minister” anything to you. I’m just warning the phony Christian Rick Perry. He is NO born again Christian. His fruit is rotten and corrupt. I’m not being fooled by that wicked man. I hope you come out of your deception.

No offense, April 2011, but your manner of speech is how liberals imagine religious folk talk.

"His fruit is rotten and corrupt"?

For realsies? His fruit? I'm not saying you're a liberal doppleganger trying to sow gourds of discord, but, ... wow. I guess we'll just have to see what you reap.

Anyway, if you are sincere, than thanks for your input. Here's why it's probably not that big an issue. All of our best Presidents save Lincoln have been pretty low key religious, and many of our worst, like Wilson, were quite religious. So, 'zeal', per se, isn't really a selling point of a Presidential candidate. So long as he accepts and supports the Judeo-Christian foundation of the nation, what's in his heart is pretty much his business.

Photobucket LOL!! That's really funny! LOL!!! I'm telling the TRUTH. It has nothing to do with anybody else but Rick Perry. He's the one who put God in this. Using God's Holy name for his corrupt political gain. I love God and I will stand up for Him and righteousness against anyone who does what Perry is doing. He's a liar and God is not in him.

LOL, mr dead last in his class mccain could sort of fly a plane, so can just about any high school kid. Damn, you mash the little feet rockers and push and pull on the little wheel.

And just like Obummer he knows how to read off his teleprompter.

"you mash the little feet rockers and push and pull on the little wheel." Unbelievable.

I'm sorry organ, but I thought I was talking to someone with a bit higher IQ and a few more years than 10. Don't ping me again until you grow up Thanks.

Please excuse post 68. I hadn't read this far yet, where you said:

God will be please that I tried to warn Rick Perry. I see Perry’s fruit and his actions, deeds, policies, etc. and the Holy Spirit gives discernment that he is wicked.

and I realized that you're either a total loon or a total fraud. I meant that objectively, and not as an ad hominem.

If you really think the Holy Spirit is talking to you directly, you either need to up your meds by at least 200mg a day, or ask It something a little more important than what flavor the fruit in Rick Perry's soul tastes like.

I apologize for extending you any benefit of the doubt earlier.



Ye gods, but FR deserves a better class of supervillain.

Actually I made an “A” in animal husbandry, in high school, and was a member of the future farmers of America. And yes I would bet I know a hell of a lot more about the subject than Perry. And since I own a rather nice herd of angus cattle, I do not fit the Perry description of all hat and no cattle. You can take you little personal attack and play with it in dark places.

I’m not even going to waste any time with you. It’s obvious that you don’t know much about the Bible or Christianity. So I understand you don’t have a clue what I’m talking about. That’s what happens when the unsaved tries to get into the Biblical and Spiritual things of God. Tootles to ya!

Well hell, organ, why didn't you say so? An "A" in FFA in high school? Daaaannnnggggg!!!!!

Hey everybody, we didn't know we were in the presence of an ANIMAL SEX expert. That changes everything! Why, we should elect ORG.WHODAT for president INSTEAD of Rick. He says he's all cattle and NO HAT, and you know that's important!
