Every time the 7 dwarves appear, they are diminished.
Run, Sarah, run!
He should be prepared for this question, when Romney is done.
Yeah, I understand that. Say, which person on the stage said he/she would send ‘em all back?
Answer: none.
She said she’d eliminate the “magnet” but some of those things she’d eliminate are things the Supreme Court said MUST be offered to illegals.
Perry has said he supports securing the border several times in the last ten days or so. Perry said it last night on Hannity.
Perry wants to secure the border using high tech hardware, more BP agents, TNG troops if necessary and limited fencing around merto areas. He thinks a full border fence is unrealisitc. Perry believes its the feds job to handle the immigration issue, like securing the borders. With sharing costs between state and federal govts.
Newt says what I want to hear on illegals!
******************
Newt gets it right on most everything...but his past seems to drag him down. :(
Myth gets to keep talking as long as he wants.
I would never want Newt for the President, but he needs to be in the new adminstration somewhere!
Romney hits Perry on in-state tuition for illegals.
Wasn’t MA was a sanctuary state under Romney?
I thot she was on one of a security committee?
yes. Perry pays for illegals schooling...and 80% of Perrys “new” jobs went to legal and illegals...only 20% otherwise
Mitt lies
If you are an american citizen and you live in Tx for 3 years, which is also required for the Dream act, you get the same deal.
Fox is making Perry the Pinata.
Handling hurdles defines every real competitor.
I have decided who I want for VP, Newt. I don’t trust him for president tho
yep!
She’s not getting a fair share of the time and questions during the Mike Wallace segment.
Don't. Johnson divorced his wife in 2005 and a year later she died of heart disease at the age of 54.
400 million is nothing Solandra spent $550 million within one year.
I have a bad feeling that Romney is going to be hard to beat.
He’s just too good a speaker, handles himself too well
and is too ‘presidential’.
GO PERRY!!!! Tell it like it is!!!!!
