Okay then you buy the idea that Democrats in Reagan’s day were great people, dedicated to doing what was best for our nation. Why it was only natural to support Al Gore in that time frame.

You think that it’s okay to state you want open borders between here and Mexico. Wow, really?

You think that it’s a Conservative’s perfect solution to propose the Trans-Texas Corridor instead of simply improve existing rights of way?

You think it’s a Conservative move to plan a new massive right of way across the state to take over 70,000 acres by eminent domain?

You think it’s a good Conservative policy to refuse to support a fence or wall on our southern border?

You think it’s a good Conservative policy to refuse to repatriate illegals, give their kids here rights U.S. Citizens from other states can’t even get. Really?

You think it’s a Conservative idea to state that every young girl must provide evidence of having taken the Gardasil regimen, unless their parents step in to object? Really?

You think it’s a good Conservative idea to toss the whole Gardasil determination process on it’s ear, by making parents look like some sort of animal if they don’t get the Gardasil regmine for their girls, thereby causing more young girls to have to submit to something that caused over 100 deaths and thousands of immune deficiency problems for other girls? Honest?

This guy has been making major screw-ups for decades.

I was eighteen when I registered to vote. Even then I know that the Democrats were not interested in supporting our nation.

Perry couldn’t figure that out until the early 90’s, even after watching the Democrat’s actions during the 80s.

This is a guy you think is Conservative?

Grunthor, that doesn’t even make sense to you.

He’s conservative enough for Texas but somehow he’s not supposed to be conservative enough for some schlub from a blue town in a blue county in a blue state?

The real questions that you need to be asking are;

“What’s wrong with Texas?”

“How can they not see what you clearly do?”

“How in Gods’ name could the patron saint of all things conservative, Sarah Palin give him such a ringing endorsement?”

You obviously have never driven I-35 through San Antonio, Austin or the Metroplex during rush hour. There is no way to widen or improve the existing right-of-way enough to handle the amount of traffic they currently deal with.

You think it’s a Conservative move to plan a new massive right of way across the state to take over 70,000 acres by eminent domain?

Using eminent domain to take private property and give it to a private business a la Kelo is a perversion of the process. However, property has always been taken via eminent domain for public uses such as for parks, roadways, railroads, etc. There is nothing unconservative about that, as long as just compensation is provided.

You think it’s a good Conservative policy to refuse to support a fence or wall on our southern border?

Do YOU think it is good conservative policy to put up a barrier that would deprive thousands of Texans access to their property or would prevent them from accessing the only major water source available to them and to their livestock?

You think it’s a good Conservative policy to refuse to repatriate illegals, give their kids here rights U.S. Citizens from other states can’t even get. Really?

Care to specify what rights the children of illegals can get that US citizens from other states can't get? And don't bother saying "in-state tuition" - that has already been thoroughly debunked. Any citizen that met the same criteria (attending Texas schools for at least three years, graduate from a Texas high school, live in Texas for at least 12 months immediately prior to applying for college) would also get in-state tuition. As a matter of fact, Texas law makes it easier for US citizens to qualify as Texas residents for in-state tuition. You or your family must merely live in Texas and be employed for 12 months prior to applying - the requirement to attend Texas schools and graduate from a Texas high school do not apply to US citizens.

You think it’s a Conservative idea to state that every young girl must provide evidence of having taken the Gardasil regimen, unless their parents step in to object? Really?

I really was not thrilled with this, but Perry has admitted he made a mistake in how he handled it. But keep in mind that almost 30,000 people per year are diagnosed with HPV-related cancers. So while I don't agree with the method, I do agree with the concern.

You think it’s a good Conservative idea to toss the whole Gardasil determination process on it’s ear, by making parents look like some sort of animal if they don’t get the Gardasil regmine for their girls, thereby causing more young girls to have to submit to something that caused over 100 deaths and thousands of immune deficiency problems for other girls? Honest?

I think parents should have the right to decide if they want to immunize their daughters for this. But the number of deaths allegedly associated with the vaccine, while tragic, is very small. Keep in mind that they estimate that vaccinations for chicken pox caused 100 deaths per year until recently. Deaths from chicken pox are pretty rare, but almost 5,000 women per year die from HPV-related cervical cancer. So your argument about the supposed danger of the vaccine is flawed, unless you oppose ALL vaccines on the same grounds, seeing as many mandatory vaccines have a much higher death rate.

This is a guy you think is Conservative?

As Sarah would say - "you betcha!"
