Got any FACTS, or just more ignorant parroted lies?
///
he DID post facts, which he took the time to look up, in #19. i’ll assume you missed them accidently.

but i was previously a Perry supporter, and planned to vote for him. (you can look me up. i said many times here, that Perry would be a good president)

what changed my mind, was Perry supporters like YOU.
who do childish and vicious personal attacks, instead of honest discussion.

so then i went and did some research, and found that Perry is pro Amnesty, against the AZ law, pro dream act, campaigned for Gore
(who WAS a flaming liberal, and even if he disguised it somewhat, i expect Perry was smart enough to know that,
if he not just endorsed Gore, but CAMPAIGNED for Al Gore),
pro mandatory vaccination of 6th grade girls for STD
(even over the objections of CONSERVATIVES),
pro-Islam
(an EVANGELICAL quoting from the Quran, that denies Jesus,
and is the reason so many of our troops have been killed?),
and more.

i would like to see some SPECIFIC FACTS, on why anyone actually thinks Perry is conservative!

You clearly didn't do a very thorough job or investigating those allegations.

"pro Islam." Not true.

Debunking the Rick Perry "Pro-Sharia" School Curriculum Myth

"Perry is pro Amnesty." Partly true. First and foremost, he is for securing the borders and forcing the federal government to fullfil its obligations to do so. Here is a comprehensive description of Perry's record on illegal immigration: Rick Perry on Immigration

". . . against the Arizona law . . ." Again partly true.
Some have said that when Perry said that the Arizona law “wasn’t the right direction for Texas,” he was taking a position against strict enforcement of immigration laws. Not so – what he actually said was,
“I fully recognize and support a state’s right and obligation to protect its citizens, but I have concerns with portions of the law passed in Arizona and believe it would not be the right direction for Texas.”
His concern was related to the portion of the Arizona law that required peace officers to inquire about citizenship status. Perry believes that the best solution is to allow officers the discretion to ask if they deem it necessary to carry out their duty.

“Texas has a rich history with Mexico, our largest trading partner, and we share more than 1,200 miles of border, more than any other state,” Perry said. “As the debate on immigration reform intensifies, the focus must remain on border security and the federal government’s failure to adequately protect our borders. Securing our border is a federal responsibility, but it is a Texas problem, and it must be addressed before comprehensive immigration reform is discussed.” Texas has allocated more than $400 million in state funding to secure the border since 2005. In the last legislative session alone, $152 million was earmarked for border security.
This was posted on FR previously, I guess you missed it: Seventeen (17) things that critics are saying about Rick Perry It is a fairly objective examination of those things you are asserting and more. With facts to back up what it says.
