Perry: ‘Stand up’ and ‘stop apologizing’

NEW ORLEANS -- Rick Perry delivered an unapologetically socially conservative speech before a friendly crowd here.

“We need to stop apologizing for celebrating life,” the Republican Texas governor bellowed at the Republican Leadership Conference in a finger-pointing, finger-wagging and, at times, bombastic, speech.

“Stop apologizing” for wanting to stem the tide of the “entitlement mindset,” he boasted.

“Our opponents on the left are never going to like us, so let’s stop trying to curry favor with them,” he said, before imploring the crowd to “stand up. Let’s speak with pride about our values. Let’s stop this American downward spiral.”

2. who are the entitlement mindset?

3. unfortunately, he is right. extremes on both sides will never like "us"

4. what is "celebrating life"?

Is there more to the speech? It doesn't seem like a "socially conservative" speech from what you've given here.

1. who is "us"?

Since he was speaking to like-minded conservatives, I assume he means "conservatives."

2. who are the entitlement mindset?

Keynesians on the left who are hell-bent on "social justice" through Socialism.

3. unfortunately, he is right. extremes on both sides will never like "us"

It's not about being liked. It's about governmental principles and societal values.

4. what is "celebrating life"?

Being opposed to abortion on demand and embryonic stem cell research, things which do the opposite of celebrate life.

OTE=Dixie;828204]Since he was speaking to like-minded conservatives, I assume he means "conservatives."

so he meant those "like minded" conservatives? because that is not what he said.

Keynesians on the left who are hell-bent on "social justice" through Socialism.

ok. are all socialistic policies harmful?

It's not about being liked. It's about governmental principles and societal values.

horseshit....you always bitch and moan when i don't agree with your POV. in fact, you bitch and moan when anyone doesn't agree with your POV. that is why you're an outsider and a loner.

Being opposed to abortion on demand and embryonic stem cell research, things which do the opposite of celebrate life.

you can celebrate life while supporting those ideals. that is a fact. do you support the death penalty?

Isn't Rick Perry the one who said God put us in this recession to bring us back to biblical ways? (or something similar)

"PERRY: I think in America from time to time we have to go through some difficult times — and I think we’re going through those difficult economic times for a purpose, to bring us back to those Biblical principles of you know, you don’t spend all the money."

Or maybe it was something similar.

lol....right, I'm sure that "don't spend all the money" was the biblical ways you were implying when you made your post.......

“Our conservative leadership has brought unmatched job creation, including 47.8 percent of all jobs created in America in the last two years. We’re the No. 1 exporting state in the nation, and we’ve got a balanced budget to boot.”

why on earth would anyone want him to be president.....

the theme of his speech, in my mind, was "being an American does not suck".......something we haven't heard for a while.....sort of reminds me of the Reagan campaign........

I wasn't implying anything except what I recalled seeing as a headline.
