So here comes the second coming of George W. Bush out of the governor's mansion in Texas, Rick (Dubya) Perry.
Or maybe just call him W2.
Perry is taller, has much better hair, seems to believe he has an even better pipeline to God than Bush did. And he comes out of Paint Creek, Tex., different from the Texas town that gave us Bush, the one we also know as Yale University.
Whether Dubya Perry is holier than Michele Bachmann, the new President of Ames, Iowa, remains to be seen. For now, though, Perry and Bachmann are the headliners of the moment in the Republican Party. Barack Obama must be rooting like crazy for both of them, at the beginning of a campaign where fringe Republicans might do a better job of saving Obama than he can of saving himself.
Perry is the latest guy in the race, announcing Saturday in South Carolina, not throwing his hat into the race as much as his helmet hair. This was the day after Bachmann, who really does think she can out-God Perry and everybody else in the race, wins a straw poll in Iowa with about 4,000 votes, which is a couple of blocks in New York City.
But that was enough for her to immediately be treated like some sort of front-runner on the Sunday morning talk shows. It was like watching the winner of a split-squad game the first week of spring training be declared the favorite to win the World Series.

Then Obama is Blago. The come from the same city.
Let’s play that game.
PERRY: WHY I SUPPORTED AL GORE...

“Perry and Bachmann are zealots ... trying to out-God each other .... Both of them acting like God likes them best. God help their party.”
What is the vicious anti-Christian attack from this loser liberal ex-sportswriter?
Bachmann and Perry, like the majority of Americans, are inspired by their faith. They, like other devout Christians, are not afraid to talk about their faith in public.
What is your faith, Mr. Lupica? You are a proud member of the godless, family-destroying, baby-killing Democratic party!
What is at the center of your cold, cruel soul?
I can forgive someone for being an ass in 1988.
We lived a very comfortable life during the Bush years. Bring it.
sorry for the bad language, my emotions got to me!
Who flew fighter jets, Romney, Bachmann, Obama? I thought Perry flew C-130’s...which takes huge stones...I’ve logged more than few hundred hours in the back of a C-130. Not my favorite way to fly! But, for love of country, right!
I hear ya. Rick Perry proved he was a political opportunist when he became the only Republican governor to endorse pro-abortion Rudy Giuliani for president. Bear in mind, that at the time of his endorsement of Giuliani, there was a mass culling of Rudy supporters here at FR. Logic dictates that Perry himself would not have been welcome here. Either his supporters have a very short memory or they just don’t care how liberal the man is. Conservatives should and do.
I’m not exactly a Perry fan, but i have to admit, when I see drivel like this being published, it makes me think I’ll take another look at the candidate instead.
I am no fan of Rick Perry either, although his ridicule of AGW boosted him significantly in my mind, but I have a feeling he is going to get the pubbie nomination unless Sarah jumps in, and in that case, I have no idea what is going to happen.
We got lots of fireworks ahead.....I like fireworks!
FUBO GTFO!
Lupica used to write poorly about sports.
Now, he checks with the daily DNC and Dabbie Washerwoman Slutz, then he writes a Pravda column.
He sure turned out to be his mom’s worst nightmare — a media whore.
Turns my stomach.
Yes, anyone who wants to beat Obama is, or should be scared. This picture will be in every voter's mind when they go to the polls on November 6, 2012:
Yeh—let NEWSDAY Long Islands liberal rag keep Lupica all to its own. Blaaahhhhhhhhhhh such tripe from him.
Maybe someone who actually knows something about it can fill us in.
Mebbe we can call perry dubya dubya
Helping the Lib rats out there, are ya?
