I must say this election is getting fun for being so early in the game. I even read some articles that said Perry’s campaign is over. In the MSM’s eyes, Perry’s is over but Huntsman is right up there in the top contenders? Their logic is rather irrational. Maybe they are trying to ‘speak it into existence’.
The law is the law.
Don’t blame American citizens, the no fault kids can blame their parents.
Morning after riposte.
EVERYBODY can think of what SHOULD have been the applicable response after the encounter, but the tape is still out there, subject only to limited editing.
Can Rick Perry somehow shed this “country bumpkin” persona sufficiently, so he can let some of his strengths and advantages come into focus?
I want to believe, really I do, but when there is someone standing in the wings, like Herman Cain, the world can wait only so long for a recovery from a fumble.

Two words...
Rick McCain.
There are estimated to be 15-20 million illegal aliens in the USA today and they are here because of attitudes like the one you just posted.
Since there is no real punishment, rather there is reward for being here illegally, more just keep coming.
It started with emergency hospital care.
Early on, after emergency care, illegals were deported, but the bleeding hearts called that cruel.
Then came schooling, then came welfare, then came all the relatives of the illegals.
And now, Rita, you bleeding heart conservative, you are tugging at the heart strings of us "heartless conservatives" that want to OBEY THE LAW AND SEND THE ILLEGALS BACK.
By any chance called...
The Panderosa???
(Be sure to roll the "r")
I reject that conclusion.
Being substantive on the issues doesn't make you a liar.
Thinking on your feet doesn't make you a liar.
Stringing 3 coherent sentences together doesn't make you a liar.
* hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayer money to Goldman-Sachs and AIG, private investment firms fo rtheir own survival?
* a Kelo decision that gives the State the right to confiscate private property just for its own aggrandizement?
* millions and millions of cheating illegal invaders sucking on the resources of the American taxpayer?
* Supreme Court appointments which advocate the power of the State to cheat the taxpayers who pay for it?
* corrupt rewards to polical supporters ala Soros, et. al?
* a national healthcare coups that actually controls an individual's responsibility for his own bodily healthcare, and taxes the whole society for it?
How can any one lose a debate against the Left (unless of course if the Media controls the questions)?

Glad to! Because your daughter hasn't lived in TX for three years!
If your daughter can get a sports scholarship to A&M she won't be required to pay OOS tuition...and if it's in baskeball she'll be on the National Championship team.
BTW, 16,000 thousand illegals don't go to U of T as Romney suggested.
“Perry: We Don’t Need to Elect the ‘Smoothest Debater’”
How about if we nominate a candidate that is smart enough not to verbally, publicly attack a large portion of the electorate?
That's what I thought. As much as I like Perry and think he's a decent guy, he wasn't well prepared for the debate and didn't do his homework. He's going to have to work on the back and forth exchanges, especially if he goes up against the teleprompter.
“Perry was given “gotcha” questions”
Chris Wallace made Perry call us heartless?
So...?
Call it what you will...several of them are less than truth-tellers!
Rick Perry did not display those conservative American values last night. I've worked hard all my life, put myself through school at my own expense and I am in process of putting my kids through school at my own expense.
So it really ticks me off to see illegal aliens coming across the border in Texas so they can put their own kids through school at no expense to them.
If Rick Perry is going to consider me "heartless" because I have a problem with that, then I do not want him representing me in any political office.
He'll be “Fed Up” when Obama creames him in one debate after the other. I'm sorry but debate performances do mean a great deal and Obama is a well oiled machine when it comes to debates and he will have the media machine behind him.
Perry's CPAC speech was GREAT -- he starts out slow, winds up and then hits it out of the park!
Also, if anyone hasn't seen Perry's new ad it's HERE (over 445,000 views)
And my essay on Rick Perrys debate:
