Of course you can't deal seriously, you haven't the patience nor the ability to do so.

I guess you ran out of ammo, so you're resorting to the old "I can't take you seriously whine"

in case you didn't know, that means you lose.

If you can be a man now, please deal with the issues I've brought up. Perry is no conservative, he's not even close.

Learn to think!

Lol, take your own advice. We were talking about the Republican primary and you suddenly start quoting Serpent Head on the economy.

The candidates are in agreement that Obama is a disaster and only argue about who is most qualified to improve the economy. And except for a candidate who takes credit for the victory at San Jacinto, and the discover of Spindletop, and the development of Santa Gertrudis cattle, they are making similar proposals.

I don’t care who said it. Its one of the great political slogans ever and applies now more than ever.

In the middle of an historic economic downturn, you think immigration is the main issue in the 2012 campaign.

Sounds like you’re either out of touch, or touched.

“He might be better than Romney, but on this issue, he’s actually worse.”

I also think Perry is better than Romney, all in all, but they both have serious weaknesses.

We do have better GOP candidates, and I hope more conservatives will take another look at them, and support them.

LMSM keeps telling us it’s between the Romney/Perry twins, but I hope the lib media doesn’t pick our candidate for us AGAIN (as they did with McCain).

“I could only get snippets from the debate I would have to actually hear the context of it (question and answer) before I comment on it.

We need to stop eating our own.”

Here’s what Perry said in the debate, and you can read the entire debate, if you wish, with the link that follows:

“And the bottom line is it doesn’t make any difference what the sound of your last name is. That is the American way.”

excerpt http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1109/12/se.06.html

Either Perry is dense, or playing the race card, when he tries to insinuate that people against in-state tuitition for ILLEGALS are against it because of the ILLEGAL immigrant’s last name.

It is bcause they are ILLEGAL.

>>>>>>Of course you can't deal seriously...

Those are your words, not mine. I said, quote: "I can’t take you seriously anymore." And its true. We went from having an intelligent debate to watching you lose control and post a list of candidates in an order that is so far from reality, it can only be called a juvenile stunt at best. Now you sound no better than the anti-Perry nitwits I've tried to ignore for the last few weeks.

If people want to disagree with Perry's record, fine. Anyone who thinks Perry is not a solid conservative has serious problems with reality. That means you, bucko! LOL

Like so many, you change the subject to fit your own opinions. We were discussing the Republican primary, and the economy will be one of several issues. All the candidates agree on the economy and that Obama's policies are a disaster. Republican primary voters will be looking for someone to defeat Obama, and not splitting hairs among the Republicans about the economy.

The economy and other Obama polices will be the issues in the general election, but in the Republican primary the voters know what a mistake Obama was and is and will looking for a candidate to defeat him. - That probably loses you again as you have to realize that when appealing to the entire voting public, issues tend to shift somewhat.

But if you can't figure out that immigration is the biggest issue in the long run, you have a real problem and will help create very long term Democrat majorities.

You were the one who lost control, you just decided you couldn't handle the discussion any more, not me. So you went all emotion, and all whine......

You do know that in September of 2007 the polls said it was a three way race, with Thompson on top in the 30+% range, Giuliani in the mid 20% range in second, Romney in the low 20% was third, and McCain was deep, deep down at 7%, virtually off the chart so low, right? So how did that work out in the real world?

Your petty idea that we know this early what the race is down to (Perry and Romney) is simply not born up by most historical races at this time in the process. Your insistence that is has to be down to those two "because you said so" is a fine trick for those who have become petulant juveniles but not so good for an adult who feigns to be making a decent argument.

The list of candidates I gave as my preference is a great one, if it's so bad, how come Drudge had the headline siren blaring that the non candidate (yet to announce) was now within a few points in polling behind Obama? You're just pissed that I have clearly pointed out a few of the reasons Perry is a bad candidate and you can't put up a decent argument against what I said.

I changed nothing. You posted in re:#75:

>>>>>But illegal immigration and amnesty are the biggest issues in this race.

That's simply NOT true. Period. You proceeded to get your panties twisted when I replied, its the economy, stupid. Which it is. The main issue is the economy and job creation, NOT immigration. And my guess is, it will remain the economy, stupid, right through election day 2012.

Blah blah blah blah blah..... sadly, you went from a reasonable fellow to a raving pinhead. LOL

>>>>>>You were the one who lost control...

Not so. If you're going to debate, you people need to keep better track of the exchanges.

In #87, I responded to your list of candidates by posting:

"Very very weak. ABBO ahead of Perry. Like I said, ABBO and “waiting for Palin” doesn’t count. I can’t take you seriously anymore."

That is not losing control that is stating my opinion and what I thought of your dumb list. You may not agree with my analysis of the current GOP campaign field of candidates, but at least its based in reality. Yours is based on some fairy tale.

Bottom line. You're waiting for Saint Palin to get in the race and save conservatism, the GOP and America from the evil Obama. At the same time, you want to make sure you take your hits at Rick Perry. You said Perry was "no conservative". Using your logic, then Palin is no conservative either. In the real world and imo, they're both conservatives.

Your response was measured in all the pitches of whine and petulant juvenilism that your conversation has become. You didn't just disagree, you lost control by asserting your opinion as incontrovertible and so obviously superior. That's the rhetoric of a loser, I gave my reasons, you gave your emotions and tried to cut off discussion to make it a pissing match.

Now we can continue if you want to be a man and own up to your asinine emotional outburst. Deal with the issues I've brought up, and stop being a whiny juvenile.

Texas Tea Party activists had their own press conference to call attention to Perry’s inattention to home state border and sovereignty issues:

Oh he;;, you went and done it now. How dare you speak out about our next La Raza representative President!!! You gonna catch all kinds of he;; now. You had better shut up already and fall in line with the Perristas that are all over FR and just obediently and blindly support the favorite alien lovers big business RINO pick for the Republican Party else you will get a real shellacking.

Furthermore you will 'probably' be labeled a anti-American Obama lover for not sucking up to Governor Goodhair.

Looks like I struck a nerve or two, or three! Good! LOL Obviously, you can't handle the truth. For all I know, maybe you've gone off your meds too.

I've not lost my cool with you. The same can not be said for your posts. Your last reply was a raving diatribe A sad and pathetic waste of energy. You should be embarrassed.

Do you always get this irrational? I don't want to feed your insecuity and anger or set you off further. Continuing this would only upset you even more. Watching you go into meltdown mode is good enough for me. For now, anyway.

The exchange is here for all to see, you've been reduced to name calling, emotion, and whining.

In the mean time, you are unable to handle or counter the horrid record concerning illegals of your chosen candidate, so you continue to engage in a pissing match.

Nice defense of your candidate.......
