Sometimes when all your clothes are either too dirty or too worn out you have to wear a suit some people will not like and will make comments.
But when you wear that suit of distinction and some hate it no matter what color or style it is then I look upon it as my personal uniform much like a pair of BDU’s.
To me I can take being called a racist or anything else to get a rise out of me, in a way we are like the guards at Buckingham in England, so we wear our uniforms with pride while many laugh, sneer, spit and taunt us, but we take a proud stand.
*shrug*
Obama is the everywhere but nowhere man.
I cannot for the life of me understand why the media continues to get away with such bias.
They call us names, laugh and mock us...we trudge on.
IF you'd rather NOT be pinged FReepmail me.
IF you'd like to be added FReepmail me. Thanks.

I’m waiting to see what Newt does, I bet he is going to chew some media butt. :)
Plus, when people start calling you names, that is when you know they are getting desperate. But a lot of that name calling stuff is working less and less, and they have to start calling new names. (Like homophobic)
Right. Perry flunked his entry exam in the debates. Perry did have some problems with policy, but he could have overcome them with nimble, articulate and witty responses in the debates. WaPo could be doing us a favor by allowing conservatives to consolidate with a candidate against the rino romney. We cannot allow romney to gain momentum.
They won’t have to look far on this “Pay for Play “ guy.
It’s not tortured logic. Cain jumped right on the bait that the Post put out there and started (basically) accusing Perry of racism.
Because? Because he starts wondering exactly when the rock was painted over?
I mean Cain really turned me off with his handling of this. He should have used his vaunted sense of humor and made a joke about something under a rock.
It was unfair and mean and kneejerk racist to make the comment that he did.
I really liked Cain and I’m not just saying that, BUT this turned me way off of him. We’ll see how he handles it in days to come. If he continues to pander and stick with his unfair attack over NOTHING I will cross him off my list.
Unbelievable!! This makes me want to fight for him even harder. I was mad when they did it to Palin, I am beyond mad this time. I am sick of smears and this only encourages my anger. Keep it up MSM, keep it up, you’re giving us fuel that we need.
Cain's reaction to the Post's attempted smear of Perry is equivalent to Perry's reaction to questions about in-state tuition for illegals.
Which is to say: "Uncalled for."
And Perry apologized. We’ll see if Cain does the same.
BS on all the three things that you posted. It is a smear, it is not effective because the truth always wins, and Cain was foolish to opine on this before he learned all the facts. May be he needs to stick with running a Pizza company.
You dream too much.
Well, Perry chose to defend the decision made by the Texas legislature 11 years ago to grant in-state tuition to children of illegal aliends under certain conditions. It was almost unanimously voted for by the Texas legislature ... I think 4 votes against. It was a popular sentiment back then and the results have been vastly exaggerated.
Most kids taking advantage of it are going to community or junior colleges where the tuition is much cheaper. For all the talk about ‘them’ taking ‘our’ place at University of Texas, there are very few at UT.
It would have been popular for him to repudiate it now... the Lt. Gov. who is running for senate has done so. Perry chose to defend it. He was a bit clumsy in his language in doing so.
But all the people who’ve used this and the fact that he is against The Fence to decide that he is soft on border are wrong.
Anyway, it’s apples and oranges.
Perry said something people didn’t like.
Now Cain has said something people don’t like.
Not sure what one has to do with the other.
Jeeze, they don’t need to look under rocks, they just need to talk to a few people out here - such as some in Tomball (northwest of Houston), who were part of a crowd of 1000 people MAD AS HELL that Perry was going to turn a freeway into a toll road.
Lots of people for them to talk to...it’s a turkey shoot here.
I certainly have seen the sign! I-68 is the way we go from our home in western PA to visit old friends in Virginia Beach.
We lease to some hunters. The only rights they have on our property are HUNTING rights, nothing else. Some leases may vary, but most just allow the hunting, period.
