I will take a devout christian president over our secret muslim president. Why do you think bobo does not go to church? He is not a christian, he just played one on tv to get elected.

Church is the first place to go if you wanta get really fucked up.
You realize Hitler was a devout Christian too?
That's why he demonized the Jews.
But we forget so easily...

I'd love to see Texas succeed from the Union, and Mexico invade and own their butts.

I can just see Perry... US Military help line: (Perry) Help Obama, we need troops. Mexico is invading us. (help line) Please enter your credit card number. You will only be charged when troops actually arrive. Grassie ass.

Perry's vision of heaven on earth:

A bunch of fundie Christians armed with and united under a political agenda all wearing Perry For Prez armbands, Corporate sashes and wide-brimmed stetsons marching in lockstep down Pennsylvania Ave. leading the masses to the newly erected United Curch of Perry's Patriot's Indoctrination Center.

Arg I listened to his speach. Another social conservative neocon. Be another election I have to choose between a tax spend and borrow liberal and a neocon who will borrow and spend. Either way this country looses. Either Bush Jr. or Jimmy Carter Jr.

and I'm sure you believe all of that as much as you believe that Obama is a secret muslim in cahoots with both Iran and the USSR to turn this country into a communist state before converting us all to Islam and enacting Sharia law....amirite?

Why the hell can't the most powerful nation on earth, with 300 million people, put up ONE fiscally "conservative" yet socially "liberal" candidate? Isn't that really what most people want here?

yes, but the people that actually want that job are too busy convincing you that it isn't what you want.

The voters will never be given that choice to make.

yeah, it's unfortune. the machine is too big though. most CEOs of the world's largest corporations have trouble controlling all the areas of their companies. you think the president really has much control or ability to make any changes that will actually trickle down to where it needs to go? the best case scenario is to make your economic decisions and hope that luck is on your side, because that's all that really matters anymore.

perry's speech today was disgusting. I hate the candidates, and even worse, the citizens, who act like it's still 1870 where we can isolate ourselves from the rest of the world, and we are the only ones that we should care about. a conservative president is the last thing we need right now, foreign policy wise.

and as far as I'm concerned, the world is too fucked up these days on a global level. we will ALWAYS have problems so we'll never have another "good" president again. there will always be something to hate on, republican or democrat.

Fiscal conservatism is bullshit. It has never worked in the history of civilization. The strength of a nation comes from two things-- it's people and its institutions. Libertarianism is a fad right now because a lot of people have such vague knowledge of history and economics but think they're a lot smarter than they are. They think, "why it ought to be clear that small government is good and less spending is good because that just makes sense! I'm a genius, why can't everyone see things this way?" Well it's because that's feel-good garbage.

This. I have the utmost respect for religious people, but overtly religious politicians bother me. It's like Clinton carrying that huge Bible for the camera just after getting a Lewinsky in his office, only taken to the extreme.

Respect the man who searches for G-d's will; fear the man who claims he knows it.

God told me to burn things. Specifically ballots for Perry.

Another "bred in the bozo belt" mix of simpleton true believer and cynical opportunist cloaked in the sash of the Baby Jesus but backed by corporate cash.

Here's a shit sandwich for you, the post millenium PB&J: Perry, Bachmann and Jeebus.

It's a race to the bottom, and the bottom still isn't in sight. :'(

Yeah, a Perry-Bachmann ticket, if elected, would be a scary future for the US.

I just googled this guy as the forum has been lit up about him, after 20 seconds reading it is clearly apparent the man is a moron, please stop him getting elected. It would make America a laughing stock, more so than GWB

Would you give me an example of something else that HAS worked?

Socialism has been a complete failure.

And European socialism is the cause of all their problems.

And we are a LOT closer to European socialism than fiscal conservatism right now.
