Is Rick Perry the most right-wing Republican front-runner in modern American history? Just watch this:

1. There won't be a President Rick Perry, either...

He is a disgusting SOB.

5. Hopefully,if Rove has his way, you are right.

Perry is beyond disgusting. he is immoral. I am embarrassed to share the same state with him.

[OHdem10]

25. Picking up whispers that the"Elites, Republican" now think they

just may be able to work with this guy . Want to
watch a bit longer but leaning that way (Perry)

Yesterday, Evening News, Fox, Consensus on a side
comment. Romney should have run as a Democrat.

Listen to Chuck Todd closely. He seems to have
gotten "the word". Push Perry. Just watch and
listen as he really comes up with all these explanations
covering Perry's antics.

11. And this coming from someone who always looks for the good in people

If you feel this way...he must be pretty damn bad. I really haven't paid much attention to him. He's not very high profile in the Pacific Northwest.

But if this is his platform, the GOP is truly in shreds. This is all they got? A wild-eyed Fundie lunatic, a gun-crazy Alaskan airhead, and a rich guy who is wearing a jetsuit (I'm sorry I can't get that out of my head), with veneered teeth no less!

Obama ought to win this thing by a landslide. Those are not viable candidates. This Perry guy is the worst yet!!!

13. I am a Texan, and have seen the reality that is Perry

I care for the masses of uninsured here.It is truly a sad situation...a lot sadder than people realize. We have so may manageable diseases...hypertension, diabetes, and cancer... in young people.We have SO many work-related injuries. No one cares because they go out of their way to make sure no one knows.

When I found out Perry was sincere, and may actually stand a miniscule chance... I shuddered.

He would get his rocks off with a smile on his face while he screwed the nation.
There,I said it.

15. You make him sound worse than Bush

Is this possible?

[hifiguy]

17. I think he may be substantially dumber and meaner than Chimpy

and that beggars the imagination. Also, I think he really and truly believes all the dominionist crap that Chimpy only nodded in the direction of. Yes I know I ended that sentence with a preposition. :)

[Generic Other]

20. "Dumber and meaner"

You have to go to a whole lower order of life form to find that! So now I am scared.

[Buns_of_Fire]

22. I heard a talking head say "He's like Bush, but not as smart."

Roll THAT sentence around in your head for a while!:silly:

Another exchange I heard somewhere:
"He's like bush on steroids."
"Naw, closer to bush on PCP."

[Sal Minella]

23. I read somewhere that Perry is the candidate

favored by voters who were put off by Bush's intellectual elitism.

[Buns_of_Fire]

27. A perfect description! But there's still that small voice in the back of my head

that keeps telling me that I never thought the electorate would take Shit-fer-Brains seriously, either.

[KamaAina]

18. And the gun-crazy Alaskan airhead hasn't even announced yet!

:eyes:

P.S. Don't forget the rich guy drove several hundred miles with a dog strapped to the top of his car.

[Richardo]

2. No, just the biggest, most obvious panderer....

...and that among a field of professional panderers.

[Angry Dragon]

3. Cliff-Notes are really nice for dial-up users

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

7. Cliff Notes:

We're Fucked!

[Generic Other]

14. He actually is referring to these programs in the past tense

He is evil. And this is what passes for a Christian in Texas? Makes me wonder what the devil looks like down there. Oh yeah. Barbara Bush. I forgot.

There is something bad in the water in that state.

[valerief]

4. Why is he still breathing?

:shrug:

[TheWraith]

10. Would you like to elaborate on that? nt

[Andy823]

6. Well he is right!

If republicans have their way, there will be NO SS or medicare. A very good reason for people to wake up, get out and make damn sure republicans "DON'T" gain control, but actually lose what they already have control of, the house!

No matter what we can not afford for republicans to gain control of the Wh, and congress!

[TheKentuckian]

26. I honestly believe the money changer wing is against ending Social Security

They do want the benefits to be worthless and nearly impossible to get and to get all that money into private hands to gamble with but I figure the odds are small that they actually want to kill the piggy bank and starve themselves of loot to exploit.

They love what would be a fairly regressive tax on the "small people" if they can rig it to go through the banks and investment houses and pay out squat. It is an easy funding mechanism for the sections of government they do love like the military and the police state.

I strongly suspect Perry is off the reservation.

8. Ummm hmmmm. Americans will remember that.

...will remember that Republicons are continuing their ugly War Against America.

[kestrel91316]

9. There sure won't - at least not if the Repigs have any say in the matter.

[RadiationTherapy]

12. This isn't campaigning. It is "starting a conversation" - "initiating a meme"

This is cultural engineering at the earliest stage.

[Generic Other]

16. A lot like wearing a "kick Me" sign on your back

"cultural engineering..." What culture are we talking about? Neanderthal?

[RadiationTherapy]

24. His culture.

We all participate in cultural engineering, but I believe Perry serves the purpose of moving the "conversation" to the right and just getting this idea out there.

[leftstreet]

19. It's designed to make the Obama/Dem cuts look better n/t

[Generic Other]

21. Wait...say what?

You lost me on that convoluted turn.
