Rick Parry 2012!

Can you give me another AMEN BROTHER?  Perry is Sarah Palin in a cowboy hat and boots…along with the winks…Can’t wait for this snake oil salesman record to be torn apart…First impression, not going to be around long…unless he uses his cut throat tactics on his fellow candidates like he did on Kay Bailey Hutchins…

perry’s got as much bad baggage as mr. romneycare.  I wouldn’t support either one for any elected office – even the job of dog catcher has better candidates available.

We all know who the lunatic-left d-cRAT socialists fear the most and who, correspondingly, would be best for America. We are all waiting for her announcement.

Rick (GW Bush) Perry Announces Presidential Candidacy: ‘It’s Time To Really Fuck Up  America More”

Perry is spot on. Obama the king of downgrade.

 “make Washington, D.C. as inconsequential in your lives as I can”

 
I like this guy.

If you look at the official numbers, half the jobs created in Texas are minimum wage jobs, the other 35% are government jobs – so is that what is Perry promoting at a national scale.

Unless you are gay ofcourse.

Rick Perry with either Marc Rubio or Paul Ryan is unbeatable.Obama can start packing.This is a good day for America lovers!!!

If you don’t count government jobs, Obama has created ZERO jobs

…as issued by the Obama campaign. Take a look at the tech jobs in Texas, they are not minimum wage

Angry bore! Next…

A lot of people will have a hard time voting for someone with a wife AND a high school girlfriend…

but which closet is he going to start out of?  Go Aggies!

are you sure you mean girlfriend?

sure ok. facts? I didn’t think so.

Please, we can’t wait. That would be a prayer answered!

yeah I heard that got nasty. what was going on there?

if perry wins the republican nod, it’ll be a 2000 redux

some moronic swing state will have 1/2 its afro-american ballots missing

and scalia’s vote will whisk an armed and dangerous perry into the white house

and he’ll put everybody back to work, all right, in low-skilled, minimum wage jobs 
with no unions or environmental protections, or minimum safety standards.

he’ll ignore the causes of severe drought, and just hold monthly prayer rallies.

He’s doubling up on beards!

as a texan, perry actually hates america

Or, as they call him in the bathhouses, “Parry and Thrust.”

In a way I want Perry to win the nomination because he will be easier to beat but I’d rather play it safe with Romney because an Obama loss to him would be much more palatable.

So my money is on Mitt.

No brainer! I hope the GOP choose a Candidate that loves America so much he wants to secede from it. Pleaseeeeee choose this GUY, Secession, secession, secession. 

Umm does Rick Perry realize not every state has oil underneath it?  The only reason Tx has such high job growth if because of the shady oil industry.

He’s a little too folksy, but he’s hitting all the right buttons. Check your rear-view, Mitt. 

Wrong

Between February 2010 and May 2011 — the 15-month period Goolsbee was referring to — the U.S. economy created 2.1 million private-sector jobs. By contrast, following the previous recession, the economy actually lost 60,000 private-sector jobs during the equivalent period, which ran from August 2002 to November 2003. Over the first 23 months of the Bush recovery, the economy actually lost 757,000 private-sector jobs and 577,000 total jobs. http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2011/jun/06/austan-goolsbee/austan-goolsbee-says-current-recovery-beats-job-cr/

Nobody is saying that no other jobs were created in Texas but what I am saying is that majority of jobs created in Texas are either minimum wage or government jobs.

Calling for secession is one sure way to love America!

But of course Barry 0bama’s cut throat tactics of having Jack Ryan’s sealed divorce records leaked was A-OK, right? 

‘It’s Time To Get America Working Again’

Working at Mc Donalds and Burger King.
Minimum wage only, until we abolish it.
Then a pay cut.
Disadvantaged 7 year olds will be chimney sweeps.

BTW, Katy Perry would make a better POTUS than Rick Perry. By far!

So 0bama’s “shovel ready” jobs were 6 figure windfalls?  Right.  Except there weren’t any jobs that were actually shovel ready.  Hilarious that now “jobs” have to qualified when talking about Texas.  National unemployment has SOARED under 0bama.  This administration can only dream about creating ANY jobs, your so-called minimum wage jobs jobs included.

Jumping to conclusions. Look a little deeper into the entire economy, please.

LOL!

As Cain says, America has got to learn to take a joke, and that was a good one.

The whole picture has changed.
I caught a poll on Fox in conjunction with Perry’s announcement.
Perry jumped to second place, very close behind Romney in conservative polls. This is my take on the instant rise of Perry.

Bachmann, Pawlenty, and Santorum are already politically dead. Throw in Sarah Palin (TM), because she is scared to death of running. Why else would she be so “indecisive?” Put all of their support together, and it still doesn’t add up to what Perry now has. Yet Perry is the summation of that group’s ideals, and he is fresh. As soon as the previously named candidates drop out, their support will go to Perry, and that could place him above Romney. In fact, I think it would.

Sadly, I have to add one more. Ron Paul won’t get the nomination at or by the time of the party convention next year, and his support will go to Perry, not Romney. Now, Perry is definitely over the top.

Barring any major skeletons jumping out of Perry’s closet, he has at least a 50-50 chance of being the nominee of the Republican party.

However, this will also make the divisions within the Republican/Tea Party coalition even stronger. The neo-con wing is dying out quickly, but they will fight Perry with their last breath.

Actually, under Obama the UE rate went from about 8 to 9.2. Under Reagan it went as high as 10.1%, so not sure what’s the big deal is especially with a big recession right at the time when he took office. And more than 2 million Private Sector Jobs have been created under Obama, just because they are not enough to eradicate the 8 million job deficit from the recession, doesn’t mean there were no jobs created.

President George W. Bush
President Barack Hussein Obama**
President Rick Perry

Yes, it soared from 8 to 9.2.  Perry’s job numbers are NET increases.  Not some number of ‘new’ jobs that  pale in comparison to the number of continual losses. You’re not sure what the big deal is?  Our economy is in real danger of reverting back into another recession due to the anti business administration and their causing unending uncertainty by regulatory imposition and a refusal to cut spending.

Better nobody works at all eh? I love democrats, if they can’t start at $75k a year with 4 weeks vacation it’s just not a job….Just like teenagers….

Didn’t you used to be america sucks? Anyway, Texas has a frickload of hi-tech, it ain’t all oil by any means.

There is a middle ground.
Try feeding a family on minimum wage (or less as I said), especially when Conservatives abolish food stamps.
I guess families could dumpster dive.
Clueless Conservatives.

If you don’t like the governement of the United States then go somewhere else.

That would be wonderful. We could use President Obama’s war chest to retire the national debt. He sure wouldn’t need it for the campaign.

All hat and no cattle….

Disadvantaged 7 year old chimney sweeps?

Talk about hyperbole.

YAY! Bush talking points are back!

Liberals LOVE to recycle dont they?

Always seeing news through the prism of getting democrats elected, arent we BFD?

Be careful what you wish for, beacuse your smug ass just might get it.

On intrade.com Perry is the frontrunner.

Screw polls- this is where people BET on who wins.

You cant get more truthful than that.

braindead talking points alert- Skyfet is back..!

So how many of those 2.1 million private sector jobs that were created were also minimum wage jobs from Texas?

Or is the left so fundementally hypocritical that they can praise Obama’s jobs and then disparrage Perry’s as being ‘minimum wage’ even though its the same jobs that are being counted?

Funny how Democrats dont care what type of job it is when Obama “creates” them.

Yeah because hes lost SO many elections already.

Let me know when he officially calls for secession..because he didnt.

Hurry along now! run to the Daily Kos to dig up some fresher talking points.

You know back in WWII times were very tough in this country, there was not enough fuel, there was not enough food, both gas and groceries were rationed…  what did our parents and grandparents do????  Did they ask the government for food stamps???   Hell no!!!  They grew Victory Gardens and fed themselves, they weren’t anything like the whimps they raised.

He realizes…  but he also plans on getting the oil out from under the states that rest above it!

Damn I just love Florida….  Instead of bashing us all the time you should be thanking us for keeping that lunatic Gore out of office!

Not as much as the average progressive does..

No…  I think that he is pretty much saying that Obama has just sucked at his job.

Yeah…because it’s not really stupid unless it’s “official”.

You are so far off….  first off they determine the unemployment rate differently now the real unemployment U6 is more like 16.2%  Just how do you figure that Obama has created 2 million private sector jobs you must be watching that MSNBC… that is pure crap and governmental math…  back in the day it was how many people were unemployed from month to month…  now Joe and Obama don’t want to count losses only gaines..  the unemployment rate when Obama took office was 7.7 now it is above 9% so how do you figure that he created jobs?

So how many jobs did the US economy shed during the same period????  It is nice how the government has suddenly decided that those don’t count…  Those weekly jobless first time claims of 435,000 or more don’t seem to figure in using the new governmental math…

There is much to not like about the government of the United States, and no there is no need to go elsewhere, we will just stay here and work for the changes that will put the government on a more reasonable footing..  Sorry Liar, maybe you might want to head for Venezuela..  You can hang out with Sean Penn and friends.

Go back to sleep.

President Rick Perry has a nice ring to it. We all hope he wins. God speed Rick Perry!

Everyone knows that any of the GOP candidates would be better than Obama.

Let’s face it … this is the guy we all would have hated in college!

Sorry one one thing she can’t stand is work.  She likes the easy money.  She’ll never run.

They can all secede with Perry then he doesn’t have to run.  It’s the best way to make Washington D.C. inconsequential  in their lives and all of them inconsequential in ours. :)

They were shedding over 700,000 a month while Bush was President.  Obama turned that around pretty quickly.

Yes, you certainly know a thing or two about hate.

I’ve learned everything I know from you. :)

Actually I linked to politifact to back up my argument, and the UE rose even with 2 million added jobs is because during the recession 8 million or so lost their jobs. And the increase from 7.7 to 9 happened in the first few months of Obama’s presidency, it hasn’t increased to 10 like it did under Reagan and has stabilized at that level. 

So what he says doesn’t matter unless he says it ‘officially’. Hilarious!

The problem isn’t the number of minimum wage jobs alone, the problem is that Texas has the highest number of them.And under Obama, more than five hundred thousand government jobs were lost compared to Perry who has managed to double the public sector in the state.

70 seconds into it had to stop listening… not one (not a single one) statement is factually correct…

When people say they yearn for the optimism Reagan espoused, it means they miss being lied to. No one necessarily seeks doom, gloom and pessimism, but one does not have to embrace lying to attain a message of optimism

After that prayer show and the secession talk, Perry is going no where and cannot win in a national election. Let’s hope this is realized early and he’s tossed out before Romney is dealt any dents

Both Romney and Obama are right of center to the same exact degree. But I root for Romney simply because congress will be more inclined to work with him than with Obama simply because he has an “R” after his name and he’s caucasian.

And guess what the first act of President Romney is going to be, if our economic woes continue? Right, a stimulus. An undiluted one and with the right size this time. And guess how congress is going to vote?

As for Obama, nice mediocre try, farewell. Thanks for ruining it for all future aspiring blacks seeking the high office, you beer-summit freak

 And unlike you, she probably knows a thing or two about college.

Perry starts this whole thing off speaking the
crazy language of Christian evangelicals. For them there is no gimmickry
here, no last minute pandering. Appeal wise he is just like George W.
and just like Palin and unfortunately those who follow them are really
good at blindly following. They have turned their whole lives over to a
giant authoritarian figure in the sky and can be mobilized by the overt
and coded language of their shared faith. 

 If you work in that industry most of those jobs will go to minorities and disadvantaged youth. So a group of individuals who took the most brutal beating with the economic turndown and are now being able to find some work is a bad thing?
Perfect example of talking out of both sides of your mouth. Let us help the poor but getting them to work is not the way to do it.

Did they teach you that when you pee on the carpet you should take responsibility for it? No? I guess you were taught to blame others, huh?  Must have gone to Harvard.

You do realize that this is the same opinion Republicans have of Democrats.  They believe Dems blindly followed a guy who had no accomplishments and had done nothing of any significance before becoming President.  Obama had never lead anything or managed anything.  He had never been in a position where he had to negotiate and doesn’t understand the give and take of negotiating (and the dems ended up w;ith NOTHING they wanted in this debt ceiling).  And yet, he was elected by mindless sheep who are now disappointed in the President for his lack of leadership, management, and negotiating skills.

At least Perry has accomplished things in his life.  he has managed the second largest state and had to negotiate with Democrats to get things he wanted.  That is more experience that the current President.

But you go ahead and make fun of the crazy Christians.  We make fun of your worshiping of a doofus that has turned out to be a total loser.

kitty has progressive in her name.  It goes without saying she knows a thing or two about hate.

I hope, HOPE democrats go with this meme.  That way Republicans can expose them for what they are – elitist snobs who trash the working man.  If you don’t have a job that involves a weekly golf game and lunch eating arugula and sipping Chardonnay, you are worthless.

Bring it on Suckers!!!

Hilarious. “Stabilized” at 9.2.  That’s your argument for 0bama? 

Fed up in FL you really have a nerve. You’ve got SUPER THIEF in CHIEF at the helm of your state and he is robbing taxpayers blind, program by program. He came after the public employees and the poor with his FAUX drug testing. His wife get richer. He’s now going to award a HMO contract, without competitive bidding worth millions to his political BUD, creating a monopoly and he refused public transit money that would have created thousands of jobs. You ought to clean your own house. The DEMOCRATS started in 2008, when we chose OBAMA. He got Osama bin Laden. He saved the auto industry in DETROIT and got through WALL STREET REFORM, health care reform which small business supported to help them compete and still provide for their employees and he Stopped the tbaggers from taking the country over the brink of economic default, making the nation a laughing stock of the world.

W belongs in jail, Perry is a traitor: he suggests that secession is still a possible resolution to TX’s problems. OBAMA got Osama bin Laden, saved the auto industry and did not betray the elderly by trying to PRIVATIZE SS  or Kill Medicare.

Yeah, that’s the point, Perry is a true, red, TBAGGER who supports the TPARTY NOTION that wealth is more valuable than work, that govt should be in a bathtub. And that it is more important for a rich person to put a new gold brick in their sidewalk, than for them to PAY THEIR FAIR for the two wars and maintaining democracy for us and for future generations. This country made them rich, they can afford to give back!!

Just follow the illustrious lead of BushDrunk & Gang.  That”ll do it.

Why don’t you speak for yourself?

Yes, like being a liberal automaton.

When Rick Perry claims he’ll bring less govt.  does that mean less money for social programs.  Unfortunately I I suspect it does.  IE code words for slashing social programs , ie sacrificing the needs of the most vulnerable to balance the budget.

Washington bad – everthing else good. I’ve herd that sone in every election for the last 40 years. Perry must do better than that if he wants to win in 2012. Try thinking of something more original, Rick.

There is plenty to like about the governement. It is the idiot governement haters like you that are what’s wrong with the country. Just go sit on the sideline and let problems solvers get the job done instead being the whinny little girl that you are. … You say, I don’t want to pay taxes, I don’t want governement interferance. Well dude you when your ass is under water because of a Huricane down there you will be begging for help from Washington. You hypocritcal ass.

How’d they get his wife to agree to stand on the podium next to his pre-pubescent girlfriend? (first paragraph) She *is* a good sport.

Oh, really.  can you prove that with stats.  Or are you just talking?

What!!!!! Obama didn’t get Osama…the Navy Seals did that. He gave the o.k. and watched them do the work. He gets no credit for that. The stimulus money was a big joke. Now the banks won’t even loan money out….and it’s the taxpayers money. Those big companies should have been allowed to fold.  This country would be much better for it. We have to pay our bills. They should have not been helped. He would like nothing better than to privatize SS and to kill Medicare.  Where have you been?

I want to thank you for that.  That nit-wit needs to be tied down to a high-chair.  Global warming my foot.

Oh, did he creat some?  Where?  I didn’t know that?  Where, where are they?  Everyone is going to go get them now that you said that.  Where, where, where.  Oh, I get it…your just joking.

No reason to fight Perry.  If he’s the best man for the job…he should get it.  There is a long way to go before any candidate is going to be singled out.  My, there is such a dis-taste for the Tea Party. Shame, shame, shame

Followers of the canbilistic rites of the Jewish zombie need to come to grips that there is a lot of us who don’t believe in this nor Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny. Just becase he thinks he can pray for rain doesn’t mean he will make a good president because of his “need” to find a higher power outside of himself. We all know his job records is drummed up hog wash. Low paying minimum wage jobs and if you can’t make jobs with the oil industry in your backyeard then you have got a real problem on your hands. Watch as the education budget of Texas takes a nose dive this year. This guy is George W. incarnate. Another shoot from the hip cowboy moron. So Republicans make it happen for us. Give us a dream ticket we can get behind Perry/Bachman 2012!!!!

I like the idea of Perry winning the nomination. Romney is the only hope against Obama, so I pray to the mythical old bearded man in the sky for this Bush doppel-ganger to beat Romney. Obama’s great white trash hope.

The only hope for the repubes is Romney; if Perry wins the nomination, Obama wins reelection, so I’m pulling for Ricky boy.

I am saying the Karl Rove faction has the greatest distaste for the Tea Party and for Perry in particular. The entire Bush family does not like Perry. He will have resistance withing the Republican party.

Perry hasn’t been in a debate since 2006.  In fact, he is famous in Texas for actively avoiding them.

These jobs were not created.  These jobs already existed, they were just moved from other states.  Jobs transferred from other locations are not considered ‘created jobs’.

Yeah, because he won the last two with the majority of the popular vote…

OMG, you are so right!  Because people who live in urban projects have enough viable land to grow gardens to feed their families….

Because families whose parents are working two to three minimum wage jobs have enough time to plant, maintain, pick and cook these vegetables…

Yeah, I forgot how accurate decision making can be when gambling is involved.

How can you compare polls and intrade?  Each are based on different things.  See, polls work by asking people who they would like to win.  Intrade involves people betting on who they think WILL win.  In our world of two political parties those two are hardly ever the same, hence the phase ‘voting for the less of two evils’. 

Oh, I see.  Education=Liberal

Yes, unfortunately when you talking college that’s pretty much true. Education does not necessarily equal wisdom, however, which is something sadly lacking in most institutions of “higher education”.

I am a Texan and I of course love my state and it a great state.  Of course Rick Perry knows that every state does not have oil under it.   Yes Texas is known for it’s oil just like Florida is known for it’s everglades, Louisiana is known for it crawfish and Mardi Gras, California is known for it’s beautiful beaches and vineyards.  All of our wonderful states have some type of natural resource that are used towards the well being of that state.  Texas happens to have a lot of oil, but we also have ranches that raise all types of animals, farmland which produce just about anything you can think of, the Port of Houston that receives goods from all over the world.  In other words we make use of what we have and we are proud of it.  I love America and we need someone in the White House who feels the same way.  That would be Rick Perry.  He doesn’t go around apologizing for our great country.  We do not have anything to apologize for.
