Don’t take our word for it; take Rick Perry’s.

Oh brother....Rick Perry’s word. What liberalism will he spew today. Michele bachmann is a hero who took one for the conservative movement by ridding ourselves of the rodent named Perry. Thank You Michele!!!!! All true conservatives owe you a lot. Our country was saved by you and Santorum!!! God bless both of you!!!!

There is a new barrier to meaningful employment. It challenges applicants who reach a certain interview status. It’s called saying, doing, posting something really stupid on Facebook. Your employer or potential employer may be able to use your words to fire or not hire. I would imagine it works for just about every posting site. I can’t even imagine a military person on active duty with a family, speaking out in an almost threatening manner repeatedly, against someone who could potentially be their commander in chief. Can you? Just a passing thought.

Texas State legislators almost unanimously voted for the “Texas educational residency bill” and gave it to Governor Perry to sign off on.

Michele Bachmann, as one of her state’s legislators herself, exhibited some reservations but then actually voted YES to the exact same thing... TWO TIMES IN FACT.

Title:
In-state tuition for undocumented students part of Bachmann’s past, too

Excerpt:
It turns out that Bachmann voted for a similar measure in 2005 while serving in the Minnesota Senate. The language, which was included in a larger higher education funding bill, would have allowed students who had attended a Minnesota high school for three years or more, had graduated and had enrolled in public Minnesota college to pay in-state tuition.

During debate of the bill, Bachmann spoke in support of an amendment that would have required such students to be legal residents as well.

“Is citizenship a privilege, or is it a right?” she asked on May 5, 2005, the day the chamber debated the bill. “It seems like the understanding we’ve always had in this nation is that citizenship is a privilege for those who are not born in this nation... This [bill] is affirmatively having our state make a new decision about citizenship. And really by doing this, we are answering that citizenship is now a right as opposed to a privilege.”

She voted for the amendment, which failed.

But when it came time to vote on final school funding bill, Bachmann was one of 63 senators who voted in favor of the legislation; three lawmakers, including two Republicans, opposed the bill.

Later that day, the Senate replaced the House’s bill - which did not include the tuition language - with its version of the legislation; again Bachmann voted in favor of the bill.
