You are flat out WRONG Hose!

EVERY Texan over 50, including myself, was once a Democrat. It has to do with the great unpleasantness that occurred some years ago now and the period that followed when we were under military rule. That party left us we didn’t leave it!

Most of us were never liberal either and Rick Perry surely never was!

[ You are flat out WRONG Hose! ]

LBJ and the other idiot JFK were big government republicans or better expressed “democrats”..
Big government republicans have always been democrats.. still are..
There is little difference between big government adherents no matter the “party”..

That is why?... partys are becoming obsolete..
Because they have come to mean nothing.. except to the mentally weak.. political groupies actually..

What was democrat may still be a democrat no matter the group they are aligned with..

I hope I am wrong.. but it seems I am not..
Juan McLame is not now or ever was a republican.. he is a democrat..
Democrats are FOR democracy.. Republicans are FOR a Republic..
Its all encapsulated in State Rights and 10th amendment..

Democrats want an all powerful federal central government with slave states.. AND..
Republicans want the federal government to be a SLAVE to the States..

I don’t trust Rich Perry.. like I don’t trust Myth Romney..
Too much blarney with switching eyes.. Used Jesus salesmen.. you know; like Bush..

Bachmann is the real deal.. genuine.. the real McCoy.. like; Palin..
Perry reminds me of Elmer Gantry.. who fooled many good ol’ boys..

What most don't know at all these days is that once upon a time (early 1900's to mid 1900's) conservatives were concentrated in the Democrat party. The first 'progressives' were concentrated in the Republican party, primarily beginning in CA with governor Hyram Johnson. It was Johnson who turned this nations political process upside-down, taking political power away from local district leadership where it had been since the beginning - and concentrating it at the top of the political pyramid.

All other states soon followed CA, but the 'progressive' Republicans were thrown out of office nationwide and soon thereafter, 'progressives' began the migration into the Democrat party. In the south however, that migration has taken quite a bit longer, as many conservative democrats have held out hoping to restore Democrat conservatism. But that just isn't going to happen any time soon.
