A very interesting article -- and from a news outlet (as are all MSM Texas outlets) that consistently tears Gov. Perry down.

It sounded like they were trying to tear Perry down here, too.

But they showed he is a true hard-core conservative who switched parties for the right reasons and advanced the cause about as much as anybody has.

What part of illegal do you not understand, bobL supports the law, it is illegal for an illegal to be here and it is illegal for them to work here. Not removing them and making them exempt from the law is amnesty. And the person distorting and lying is you.

You have NO basis for that comment and I submit it is YOU, working as an opposition poster who hits every Perry thread, who is the liar and provocateur working to counter the effective dissemination of information in this GOP primary vetting process.

hocndoc, on your post #60 about Cain and his wife and their political history, you started out the post addressing it to BobL, as if you were answering his post.

But your post does not list BobL as a recipient, it only lists deport.

If you meant to ping BobL to your post with the facts about Cain and his wife, you didn’t do it.

Being a lifelong Texan, born and raised, I understand plenty.

Unlike yourself who is a joke and a hater and a thread spammer with lies and insults to offer.

Your hobby is sick, twisted, perverted and not a real representation of anything.

I guess the only way to keep Gloria Cain from voting for Barack Obama's 2nd term, will be to have Herman Cain running as the GOP nominee.

Wow.

“BobL, I meant to ping you to # 60.”

I stand corrected...thanks. But don’t forget, Clinton was the first ‘black’ president, so the vote doesn’t surprise me.

Was the comment made to you, are you trying to say amnesty is not amnesty. When you remove the illegal it is amnesty and pointing that out is the vetting process. Sad thing is you people back flip daily with this BS of perry did not mean that, this is what he meant. Like his recent statement that he never said anything about secession. Man is a loon. Perry is headed to the also ran, and he will stay there thanks to your efforts.

Again, last night Gingrich and Cain supported “guest worker” programs.

Ricky is a rank opportunist who calculatedly switched b/c of his political ambitions......being Repub made it easier......underlines that self-serving Perry is untrustworthy....a Me-First opportunist who will do whatever is expedient to advance himself........

Ricky has been called "the human price tag." He will sell himself to anyone---and will do and be whatever is necessary to climb the political ladder. He manages to stay in the 2012 race despite sinking to the bottom of the pack----b/c he has millions and millions of special interest dollars. Ricky can get millions more by making a few calls to Mexico and to his wealthy Islamic friends----who are hellbent on seeing Ricky in the WH.

============================================

BACKSTORY Ricky has an odd unbroken string of elections---two-time AG commisioner, then Lt governor, then three-time governor. Candidate Perry makes sure he "looks" like the most conservative candidate.

Many Texans never caught onto his tricks----Perry talks "conservative" but when it comes time for the vote, he cues in his Big Money buddies to lobby against "conservative reforms." Trusting Texans never knew what him 'em---except that the "poor governor" was "betrayed" by the Republican controlled legislature.

He's doing poorly in the 2012 race b/c many many people outside Texas are onto him.

I’m for legalizing certain ones of them to work, nothing more.

There have been laws that did not work and were not enforced, etc. They were changed.

There used to be a law called prohibition that forbid alcholic beverages.

There used to be Jim Crow laws that upheld segregation in place as it was.

Don’t you, or BobL, or anybody else try to jive me that a law is so sacred it can never be changed once it is a law. What jokers you are if you think for a nanosecond you can get that by me with your whinings about “the Law”.

I am against granting amnesty and am against making people citizens.

Addressing the desire of those to work in order to keep their families from starving, which is why many of them do try to come here, is something worth doing, as long as it is done with a Border Security plan in force, and does not take jobs away from citizens who would otherwise want those jobs.

Your high horse about a law that exists being unchangeable won’t fly with anyone with a brain.

Apparently, it must seem to you that others have no brains.

Or else you wouldn’t try that nonsense.

“Al Gore was considered the conservative Democrat running in the 1988 presidential primary (pro-Life, family values, 2nd Amendment). Dukakus took the nomination and Perry washed his hands of the party and joined the GOP. Perry also voted both times for Ronald Reagan.”

This one’s already been covered, but Gore was drifting left throughout the 1980s. By the time Perry was working with him, his ACU Rating was 9. He was PATHETIC. Yes, Dukakis did win the nomination in 1988, but Perry did not change parties until 1989, so I have to assume he was also fine with Dukakis. As to Reagan, I have no idea how Perry voted as I wasn’t in the booth with him...but I do know that Perry had no problem staying with the Democrat Party as they tried to IMPEACH Reagan over Iran-Contra.

All I get from that is he's a desperate politician relying on Gerrymandering instead of ideals. Additionally, it's only a matter of time before he decides he needs other “friends” besides Gramm & Co.

If Cain says “A” and Gingrich says “A” and Perry says “A” org.whodat says:

There’s La Raza Rick calling me heartless again.
