I’m a huge Sarah supporter. Perry just tried to shore up his very weak stance on immigration.I keep wondering if Aga Khan will come up or not.
Selective opt out for your campaign contributors is not the same as Perry’s unconditional opt out for everyone.
but good to finally see her fighting for it....
Perry: If your an illegal in Texas we give you in-state tuition..
Perry: ITS THE AMERICAN WAY!!
The vaccine is only effective when given to girls who don’t already have the disease. The minimum recommended age is nine. The latest recommended age is prior to becoming sexually active.
This is why it is not mandated in nursing homes.
yup.
Perry just crashed and burned on the immigration issue.
Romney may be a robot. Or a cyborg.
Perry just missed a good one. “Do we put a fence down the middle of the Rio Grande?”
Santorum is just another annoying mosquito....won’t be going anywhere, but he’ll buzz around and try to bite.
Why isn’t anyone saying EVERYTHING is on the table when it comes to securing the border... fences, moats, alligators, mines, troops, etc.
The term is ILLEGAL ALIEN not ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT! Damn these politically correct whores! (rant off)
ILLEGAL means ILLEGAL!
An immigrant is someone who comes here LEGALLY
Perry: If your an illegal in Texas we give you in-state tuition..
Perry: ITS THE AMERICAN WAY!!
WILL SOMEONE GET SOME BALLS AND FREAKING ATTACK ROMNEY ALREADY?!?!?!?
Perry needs to get his chops busted for his record, but Romney’s record is twice as bad.
Like having condoms available is encouraging your kids to have sex...only cancer is way worse than a baby.....
