Rick Perry moves ahead of Mitt Romney in race for GOP nomination in new poll
Washington Post ^ | 9/6/11 | Dan Balz

Posted on 09/06/2011 3:58:50 PM PDT by CA Conservative

Aided by strong tea party support, Texas Gov. Rick Perry has surged in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, pushing former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney into second place and significantly diminishing the once-rising star of Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.), according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

My apologies for blundering in my words.
I am not a Paulbot like you.

I respect the men that fight for our constitutional ideals.

It's a big issue for me. Here is why...

I live in in rural East San Diego County. Not a week goes by that I don't go out to find my water hose running having been left on by ILLEGALs filling their water jugs. They pick fruit from my trees and steal the eggs from my chicken coop. Hell, they've even stolen the chickens. They have broken into and slept in my vehicles, my garage, my workshop, storage shed and barn and they've tried hot wiring my vehicles. A time was when they would run when spotted but that time is no more. They have grown bolder and more dangerous. I hate leaving my home empty when I travel or worse, leaving my wife here alone. So I hire someone to house sit my house or we have someone stay with the Mrs.

My congressman is Duncan Hunter. He is a staunch conservative who knows and understands the needs of people like me. What I don't have but need is a president who will take real steps to secure our southern border. And given what I know about pro-ILLEGAL alien, pro-amnesty Rick Perry, he would not be that president.

btw...you failed to respond to my questions. Were you unaware that Perry supports amnesty and are you for it?

Everybody seems to be praying that Sarah Palin runs. Of course they ignore the fact that she supported McAmnesty in the Senate Primary and also came out for conditional amnesty.

Perry ain't perfect, but then neither was Reagan. He gave us Amnesty I and dramatically raised social security payroll taxes.

How odd that everyone has a selective memory. But that's human nature.

With 14 months to go she gets more people out than anyone else in the GOP field and she hasn’t even announced yet.

BTW I had an illegal asshole sleep in my camper in Ca and wanted to fight me about it when I found him in the AM

I showed him a tire iron and I moved to Texas shortly there after.

I have never had a repeat if that **** in 20 years of Texas

Hey, post all the stupid sh*t you want. You and your cadre of gnats and gadflies.

It won’t advance any of your “ideas” because all you end up doing — all of you — is just irritating everyone.

But have at it. Knock yourself out. You’re only driving the lurkers away from you.

You have no idea how much you and your fellow gnats come across as worse than paulbots.

And that’s pretty freaking bad. It’s hard to be worse than a freaking paulbot, but you and your anti-Perry gnats have hit the mark.

South40, several people have asked you and maybe you answered by I missed it, for which I apologize...

Who do you support?

I just saw a list of existing candidates (including Palin) and NONE of them got high marks for immigration except Bachmann and Cain. If you don’t support one of those two then you really are a hypocritical b@st@rd, since you prattle on about that issue so much.

And if you DO support one of those two, then we really have to talk...

I am just sick to death of these propaganda bullys.

Why can’t we have a reasonable debate?

That is my issue with 40 and the other Punks

Rick Perry may fall short and he hasn’t been perfect, Have any of us seen perfect yet?

I was a Fred Thompson backer this last go around and I still think he makes more sense than this propaganda nonsense

Some firebombers have ideals. Jihadists have what passes for ideals. Or at least they think they do.
