It's fairly easy for one to sit back and attack somebody for not breaking a contract when one is not financially responsible for said contract.

Really? His signed on with the lease so I believe you're mistaken.

It was a nice place to hunt and the rent went to a good charity. Anyone who pretends to see more than that is nothing but a slimy provocateur.

Provocateur? That's a hoot and I suspect you might want to review the definition as it doesn't quiet fit.

There are many nice places to hunt. There are many ways to donate to charity and get a write off. And believe me, I've had clients with that charity and know they are far from hurting for money. However, if he was so upset over the rock and others have through the years said it would come back to bite him, then it might have been in his best interest to find another nice hunting lease.

Ok, it's obviously going to take an example for you. Say your daddy got a hunting lease and at some point you also signed it. Oh, it's a nice lease. Lots of dove and deer and just down the road from the old family home. It's a great place to bring the movers and shakers and politicians. Your political career is taking off so you know every little skeleton in the closet will be under the microscope. Unfortunately, there's a big ol' sign on the gate of said lease with "KKK" on bright red letters. Sure, never mind that it might mean the Kline Kids' Kamp but just how is that going to play out with your political career? A person with half an operating brain cell would not renew the lease the following year and move to another lease if for nothing else to avoid exactly what Perry stepped into.

But, you Perry folks don't seem to understand that perception is everything. The "Niggerhead" is out there and there's no side stepping it now. It has indeed come back to bite him in the butt. People can't unforget nor will they give him a pass.

You are a despicable low life liar.

Thank you. Appreciate that. I feel so honored. Would love to pay the compliment back at you one day soon but I'm older than 12 so am able to refrain from name calling.

From the Urban dictionary:
niggerhead
An antiquaited logging and trucking term used to define a large round rock or outcropping of rocks usually on an unpaved road bed that could damage a vehicle.
Example:”Now be careful up here,there’s a niggerhead as you come out of the turn.”

No you are wrong. It is better for others to speak up for Perry then for him to do like we have seen Obama do on and on. Obama when attacked holds a press conferece. or has a website made so he can whine and bitch and moan and goan.

GO PERRY 2012
