Of these 4 bozos, I would go for Perry. He seems to backtracked a bit in his handling of illegal immigration and at least he is not pushing newtonian amnesty. Newt is the most unacceptable because of his amnesty fanatics.
I hope Bachmann or Santorum would be the surprise finisher though.
I am tending to agree on Perry (although here in Texas, we do not get to vote until April, at the earliest!).
I love Ron Pauls proposed domestic budgetit should be the starting point for any true conservative; but he is way too loony on about 20 percent of the issues, even when I think he means well. Newt is a great debater, and very good at getting bills passed, but he has a history of working power angles in lieu of conservative principles, Santorum (who is probably the one with positions most identical to mine) and Bachmann are, frankly, long shots and may be out of the race by March.
That leaves Perry, a B+ candidate. One thing about Perry, he has an A+ as far as second amendment rights go. And to be clearI am no Perry-bot. I have a long history of being very annoyed at many Perry decisions, including for example Perrys decision to attack one of our most conservative Texas Supreme Court justices and back a moderate candidate during a primary.
So many criticize Perry for not doing Obama’s job.
If they want Perry to do Obama’s job for him then they need to vote him into Obama’s position.
Perry as the Governor of Texas cannot completely secure an international border between United States and Mexico as Texas Gov and with only Texas resources.
Perry as the Governor of Texas cannot deport any illegals.
Perry as the Governor of Texas is forced by Federal Law to educate and medically treat illegals.
Perry has done more on the border than Obama has and it is not his job to do so. He has done it with as much Texas Taxpayers money as possible and with as much Texas resources as possible.
If people want Perry to do Obama’s job of securing the border, getting drug cartels (and the guns away from them that Obama gave them) and fix the illegal problem we have......
then they should vote for Perry to give him the job, responsibilities and the resources to do so.
I’m not picking on you and I know you are favorable to Perry. It is just that Perry is getting a bad rap for the illegal and border issues that are not entirely his fault.
Have you seen this?
THIS IS GREAT....LOOK WHAT TEXAS IS DOING ON THE BORDER...
