    You've got to be kidding, right? Obama is a far-right president? What kind of dope are you smoking?
    Uh? I know you're out of touch with reality, but this much?

    Obamacare mandated pay to private corps? check
    BigPharma happy with Obamacare? check
    GITMO still open? check
    Wars and the MIC still going strong? check
    Extended tax cuts? check

    ... and the list goes on and on... He's Bush Jr Jr.
    You might want to call dubya a RINO, but that's where he ran. Perry will be getting the same backing.

    And independents are just mushy, middle-of-the-road people who are too scared to take a stand one way or the other.
    They don't care what you think. They hold the votes that take candidates to the white house.

    He'll cater to the independents by telling them he knows how to create jobs, and oh by the way Obama sucks. As for whether or not going negative works on the national stage, clearly it does. Ask John Kerry.
    Not saying negative-only campaigns don't work. Just saying he's going to have to cater to the middle (much to Crookskans despair). I have no doubts the GOP can align behind him if he wins the primaries.

    Truth.

    Our choice next november is between a 4th term for George W. Bush or Rick Perry, who probably wouldn't be much different than George W. Bush.

    Christie and Ryan might be the next to add their names to the mix. Perry is a nice addition but I'd like to see the other two jump in as well. I like Newt, Romney, Perry, Christie or Ryan in no particular order to win the nomination. I wouldn't mind Bachman but people like taco Joe will jack off all over her face giggling about wrong birthday shout outs to dead celebrities spewing absolute nonsense and quite frankly I don't want another few years listening to ignorant chauvinist s like that. No offense.

    39 percent approval rating ain't going to get er done. I really wish the dems would admit barry was a failure and get another to run for the presidency. Someone who would listen to the people, make government smaller, toss out obamacare,stop the wars, lower taxes, tackle immigration, create jobs, bring congress together, stop the freaking clock on the debt perhaps even going the other direction in his/her first term, generally fix the economy and act like a president. Barry does none of this. Demand someone other than barry. He is a failure. Until then, go red team. Anyone that gets the nod, gets my vote.

    Perry will finally have to answer to the 'other' part of his record. Too bad mainstream Americans aren't as stupid as Texas voters..
    ow...

    Friendly fire!! I'm hit!!! Medic!!!


    This Texas voter has always voted for Perry's opponent.

    I have pointed this out before, so forgive the repeat:

    You have three voting members. A, B, C.

    A always votes the opposite of C.


    Who has the real decision making power?

    It really is just that simple. Moderates and independents are what decides elections.

    Our choice will be between George W. Bush vetoing everything out of congress and George W. Bush signing everything out of congress. I prefer the former.

    I heard that he's not that popular in the legislature, and not that popular all around.

    The suppporters are saying he's relentless, driven, never-quit bas . That's the "press release".

    So basically you are saying that the Republican candidates are SO BAD that you want the Democrats to nominate a Republican so you don't have to vote for the Republicans?

    It's funny how knee jerk liberals think taking more and more money from taxpayers pockets to send to Washington so that politicians can dole out special favors and and throw money on their pet projects and programs in an attempt to buy votes is good for the economy.

    This is true too. But since Washington has basically no impediment to borrow, then ing about deficits is a bit hypocritical don't you think? Eventually the tax payer is going to be on the hook regardless + interest.

    Perry is a backwoods hick. Sadly, so is most of Texas.


    Way to fail.

    Data points:

    US government borrowing costs at record lows
    Labor is cheap due to soft economy
    infrastructure, a required expense, is deteriorating and building up a sizeable deficit in terms of what is required vs. what we are building


    Conclusion:
    Borrow money to build infrastructure while it is really, really cheap to do so.



    If you have to do it anyways, why wait until it gets expensive to do it?

    The solution to our current economic malaise is pretty simple.

    Borrow more.

    Sad thing is that the pragmatic solution to the problem runs up against ideological dogma.

    I don't like running up debt any more than anyone else, but there are times when it is the right policy tool.

    Alternately, an Infrastructure Bank would seem to be a good solution.

    That logic might work if we hadn't already been slinging that credit card for many years. The debt to income ratio is all out of whack and we are essentially bankrupt.

    Are you really that stupid, or are you just pretending?
    Hey remember det time he refused a stay of execution for a man who was clearly innocent and the man ended up being executed, then they exonerated him afterwards? Then instead of apologizing for his mistake he tried to cover it up like a re ed jackass?
