Why is Rick Perry in the lead?

Damocles said:
Everything that I thought was bad about Bush worsened under this President. PATRIOT Act, HHS, the Pill Bill went on steroids and became a program enforced by the IRS that makes me purchase health insurance... GITMO is still there, remote control bombing, nation-building nonsense, wars of convenience for what is supposed to be altruistic reasons, bombing the crap out of people without declarations of war long past deadlines of approvals, we can go on and on. Bush III is everything bad about Bush II with a few more bad policies on domestic policy thrown in for good measure, and he has the same attitude Bush I had about the economy.

Damocles makes some valid points.


Unfortunately, it looks like the alternative is President Perry.

What is it about liberals that made them elect a President with no record of success in ANYTHING, business or otherwise?

I would argue your point, but when your only resonse is, "they do it too" I can only guess how weak anything else you have to say will be.

Just curious, but in your world.... do governors write the laws of their states? Do they sit on the juries and determine the guilt/innocence? Do they sit on the bench and determine sentencing?

That was not the question. The question was 'Why is Rick Perry in the lead?'

Try to pay attention...

Do show us the last Dem female Presidential nominee...

Clinton lost in the primary to a man. She is the ONLY female to have stood for the Dems in the Presidential primaries.

So do tell us now about how the Dems prefer a male candidate...

And the Republicans have never had anyone seriously considered for the nomination. The Democrats have had more progress with women making it closer to the top spot than the Republicans have.
 
So, 105 posts about his its all Obama's fault v. its all Bush's fault....

Still not a single person can tell me why Perry, with 0 business experience is in the lead for the Republican nomination over a man with years of proven and successfull business experience.

Actually, a sizable portion of the Teabagger fringe still wants Bach-to-Mom, and they used to want failin' Palin.

This again? Jesus. Zombie lies never die.

How in the hell have so many people allowed themselves to be convinced that Barney Frank, ranking minority member on a single House committee, personally thwarted the will of the Republican President of the United States, the Republican led Senate and the Republican led House? I would suggest partisanship is the answer, but I know that we have no Republican hacks on this site and have only moderate independents and Democratic/left-wing hacks.

Would that be similar to the Dems non-stop bitching that the Reps stopped the Obama led White House with SUPER MAJORITIES in the House and Senate? Impossible like that? I would suggest partisanship is the answer.

Bottom line... My point with Barney is that it was not CLEAR to everyone that the housing market was ready to implode.

My point was not that Barney somehow thwarted everyone else. Bottom line, it was NOT clear as Oncelor suggested and thus there were a lot of Reps who AGREED with Frank.

Just to be clear, Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac were not subprime lenders or guarantors of subprime loans. So pretending that supporters of Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac or supporters of affordable home ownership were supporters of subprime lending or NINJA loans is disingenuous at best.

Fannie and Freddie were some of the largest BUYERS of subprime debt.... HENCE their SUBPRIME debt problems.

I was mocking the stupidity of your OP. You tried to paint everyone with a broad brush and it was incredibly IRONIC that you mentioned Perry's 'inexperience' in business when you voted for someone who had NO experience.

I am paying attention... you are the idiot that keeps posting the 'Perry executed more humans than evers'.... THAT is what I was addressing.

Why did Obama win the Presidency with ZERO business experience over a man with a much better track record of service to this nation?

It is a fucking poll Jarud....
 
Rick Perry is the "tea party’s" presidential favorite, according to a new Gallup poll.



Thirty-five percent of Republican voters who support the tea party movement told Gallup last week that they prefer Perry out of a field of eight GOP presidential contenders.


By comparison, just 14% favored Bachmann.

Just going by what you & Damo said - that he knew it & "warned" us. Why are you always running away from what you said?

once again you're dishonestly misrepresenting what i said. its gets old.

further, why is it you keep running from picking which is it: did he create it; or did he simply fail to stop it? those are two different concepts. additionally, you have yet to explain, how bush alone, created or failed to stop (depending on which side of the mouth you're talking from) the economic downturn. and again, it is absolutely the height of partisan bullshit to blame only bush. that you promote proves beyond any doubt that you're a hack.
