The guy went to one meeting in, what, 2007? I'd go to a meeting if they invited me. They probably have great food.
I'm don't know how to refute your point, because I'm not sure how you arrived there. If Perry is Illuminati material, then I guess I don't really know what Illuminatis are aiming for.
Im not voting for a McCain or a Bush or a Dole or a Bush again.
Who do you have in mind?
We want patriotic Americans who know that the Muslims are here to kill us.
No public figure is going to say this. Anyone that did would be shot with tranq darts and stuffed into a straight jacket. America's just not ready to hear that sort of thing. Herman Cain didn't go nearly that far, and he still wound up walking back his words a half mile.
I think that Western civilization and Islam have a major and bloody reckoning coming to settle their basic incompatibilities, but we're just not there yet. I spent the better part of the last decade downrange, and even the Army can't bring itself to say it in those terms.
May I squeak in here, long enough to say that Perry spoke at the Build-a-burger meeting. His topic? STATES RIGHTS & FEDERALISM. He came. He went. Next question?
"We are not at war with Islam. This is a war within Islam, where a small minority of violent killers seeks to impose their view on the vast majority of Muslims who want the same things all of us want: economic opportunity, education, and the chance to build a better life for themselves and their families."If you can't even get Sarah Palin to declare war on the Muslim religion, who are you going to get? What candidate is going to do what you want?
Sarah Palin.
You should have used the “Perry is a muslim sympathizer” argument here, because that would be on-topic for the thread.
It’s helpful to keep each anti-Perry talking point in it’s appropriate thread, otherwise it looks like spamming.
Steel Wolf, it’s simple to answer.
He was invited to a meeting, so he went to see what it was about. As Perry himself has said, they never invited him back, or to join. So he clearly was not “picked” by those types.
Once you start looking at the world as a giant conspiracy, it all makes sense. I don't think the world is supposed to make sense quite that easily. It's sloppy, self-sustaining reasoning. Comforting, I suppose, but I wouldn't trust it an inch towards explaining someone's motivations over the normal human vices.
Well, all I can say is, I don’t care what anybody else says, I love those build-a-bear workshops.
Man, I hate politicians.
Especially if they hang out with any kind of Satan worshipers. (Muslims)
READ the guidelines for the Curriculium to be taught about Islam (Muslims).. I agree 100% that the History of Islam (From Mo to current times SHOULD be taught at all educational levels, in every state of the Union) BUT THE CURRICULUM THAT TEXAS IS TEACHING IS NOT FACTUAL - BUT A DISTORTION OF THE FACTS..PROBLEMS CANNOT BE CORRECTED IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE “TRUE” HISTORY OF THE PROBLEM..STOP THROWING CONTINOUS ROSE-PETALS AND STATE THE FACTS...WOODROW WILSON HAS LEFT THE HOUSE...
AMAL IMANI — IS “PICKING” ONLY THE “ROSE-PETALS”....
Ronald Reagan meets Afghan Mujahideen Commanders at the White House in 1985 (Reagan Archives)
“Secularism in our govt and schools is killing this country.”
Exactly,...
The founding fathers were so stupid with all their “separation of church and state” crap.
Picky — aren’t we??? try to Chill-Out - A cold Beer might help..
“What is more disturbing is the claim, nearly all of it originating from one source, that Governor Perry is supported by CAIR.”
One source, it seems, is plenty for the anti-Perrys to grab on to and run with. And could be any Leftist/conspiracy garbage on the Net.
Does it make you *proud* to continue spreading false and distorted claims about Perry?
I thought FReepers were suppose to be smarter than that?
Just as the fact that Texas pro-life groups giving high marks to Perry for his pro-life stance “proves” that Perry is actually not pro-life, so his receiving the Defender of Israel Award for 2009 “proves” that he’s an enemy of Israel.
In the twisted logic of the anti-Perry fanatics in FR.
Read her words again. We are not at war with Muslims. Thats a true statement in as far as an active war is not against all Muslims. She must parse her words if she hopes to be taken as a serious candidate. Thats a far cry from that welcoming statements Perry makes. Perry worked with Muslims to include Muslim classes in schools in Texas.
Heres just one quote from Perry.
It is a great honor to be in the presence of the Imam of 16 million Muslims around the world, a global humanitarian leader, a man of peace with a pluralistic vision for people around the world, His Highness, the Aga Khan, the 49th Hereditary Imam of the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims. Your Highness, on behalf of 23 million Texans, and over 600,000 thousand Muslims living in Texas, I extend our heartfelt appreciation for your 50 years of great international leadership. We are delighted to welcome you to the Lone Star State and participate in the celebration of your Golden Jubilee. I am also grateful to the many federal, state and local leaders in attendance tonight. By their presence, these special guests convey the profound respect that exists in the Western World for His Highness work and leadership.
Working with Muslims, welcoming them, and working to get Muslim teaching in schools is a far cry from stating that we are not at war with all Muslims which we arent. We have Muslims working with us against the radical Muslims but welcoming them into our culture with there propensity to overwhelm our American system is something that can not be tolerated.
” The muslim lovers here will never get it MM. Same with the ricardo hussien perrynistas illegal lovers here on FR. This ancient old boy has seen a bit.....but never anything like the support for an illegal loving, in bed with the terrorist front group, c.a.i.r., candidate from folks here that should know better. Good God, this twin cancer of islam and the mexican illegal criminal invaders is/are destroying our country!....”
You NAILED it !
