Palin is more Populist than she is Conservative.

Perry is a true Conservative, with the record to prove it.

LOL!

Your cheap rhetoric is and has gone nowhere on this forum, or among the rest of the Conservative World. Perry just keeps on getting stronger with each passing day, in spite of your nasty little effort.

In the coming months, and your self anointed saint is still leading her money paying following on, it will be Rick Perry who rises far above all the hateful demagoguery that your pathetic cult can muster.

I like them both. Instead of celebrating how much worse the treatment of one was compared to the other why don’t we simply agree that the “media treatment” is biased and outrageous. It should not happen to either but Perry is getting the Palin treatment here on FR by the same posters over and over.

Some conservatives are DOING THE EXACT SAME THING TO PERRY and celebrating it. Is’nt that ironic?

I love Palin. If she does not enter this race I like Perry. If she does enter the race I would support Palin first, but I still like Perry. I would bet you a million dollars that if Palin is not the nominee, she will campaign for Perry and campaign hard. What are you going to say then?

Another way to look at it is the “conservative blinders” that Palin has for McCain. She has defended this guy over and over even after the campaign was over. I get it. As the #2 on the ticket she signed up for it but using the same anti-Perry logic being displayed here on FR what does that say about Palin?

I think many of you are putting yourself in a box that others will not forget. If Perry is the nominee, Palin and the Tea Party will support him. If Palin were the nominee, I am very confident that Perry and the Tea Party will support her.

I love Palin but let’s see you purists who continue to complain about Perry supporting blue dog Gore decades ago (a much different Gore) justify her love of John McCain just 3 years ago. It’s the same thing and if you drop your emotion over Palin you will be forced to admit it.

“Palin endorsed Perry for governor and called him a “true conservative”.

Was she lying?”

They won’t answer this, will they? They can’t.

Option 1) She didn’t mean it. Then she’s just for sale.
Option 2) She did mean it. Then they are just a pack of braying donkees who don’t trust their own candidate’s judgement.
Option 3) They think it never happenned. The video was doctorred. Which makes them Paul’s folly.

That may be the case at this point, but the media vultures haven’t really started in on him yet. Let’s see how he does and go from there. If he has some fight in him, we’ll find out soon enough.

Rick Perry was prepared to create a million refugees in Texas by giving imminent domain and development rights to a foreign corporation over land four football fields wide. Sounds like something out of communist country.

Rick Perry was going to make guinea pigs out of millions of Texas school children (all preteen sluts I guess?) with Guardasil (which had not been tested on kids) which means that he was mandating hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for a politically connected Merck.

Perry opposes a border wall. Perry opposes not giving benefits to illegals. Perry also favors a “guest worker program” that will definitely lead to amnesty.

Perry is already distancing himself from his book published last year “Fed Up”. Perry helped break ground for an Islamic Center in Plano TX.

Rick Perry spent tens of millions of our tax dollars doling subsidies out his own version of “stimulus” to corporations.

Rick Perry is not a conservative.

I live about 30 miles south of Pittsburgh, so this is one of the “local” papers. Other than a good sports page, Jack Kelly’s weekly column is the best part.

He’s a former US Marine, BTW!

I feel sorry that you’ve bought into the lies and hype.

You’re in the same boat with the liberals who bought into the lies the leftwing media said about Sarah.

Perry has already dealt with the MSM BS. He has taken them on face to face and has repeatedly won. It is what he is most well known for. And people end up liking him even more and take his side to his advantage. It is also why he has never lost an election. And I might add, he has never QUIT in the middle of anything. The tougher things get, the better this Fighter Jock becomes.

How long has Perry been on the national scene, two-three weeks? Sarah Palin has daily taken much worse slings and arrows for the last three years, and she is still standing tall and proud. If Perry can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen,

GASP! You're right Rick Perry is just like Sarah. Except he's a sucky RINO.

LOL! I am leaning towards Option 2. :)

I lived it.

I know that Perry is no conservative.

Do you think he didn’t work behind the scenes to make sure Joe Straus (Dem poodle) became Speaker? A supermajority became meaningless.

Far from it. But try doing something similar to the obscene garbage you post on a Perry thread, against Palin on a Palin thread.

But I am sure you would deny that also.
