While I support the idea of electing a “Republican” from Texas with initials R.P., I was pleased to see Michelle M nail the other R.P.:

On the other hand, as a stockholder in Merck, perhaps I should thank Rick Perry for his concern for my financial wellbeing.

I hear Rick Perry kicks dogs and was once seen trying to peek up Mother Theresa’s skirt. Both He and Sarah Palin sacrifice babies to Satan in secret midnight ceremonies.
I don’t know about Rick yet but as I said before I’m hopeful. Unlike most Republican candidates he looks like someone who can attract voters. It’s well known that I think the world of Sarah, but Mercer long ago convinced me that she is not Presidential material. the beat goes on.

@ MyRon “I think dad Ron Paul is trying to pave the way for Rand in 2016.”

I think it started out that way Ron laying the ground work for Rand in 16

But things change in politics on a dime & Ron has been building & growing his support in a consistent basis, while the others go up & down like a yo yo

Ron has the most loyal supporters reading the cross tabs in various polls if the keeps building a stronger base ….

The following link makes the same comparison of Bush and Perry as my 6:13 comment. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/exclusive/rick-perry-vulnerabilities-145436433.html However, no, I can not substantiate his comments about merging health care with Mexico. That was passed on to me by a Texan’s word of mouth. If pressed, I can dig through internet archives; but, I really don’t want to waste that much time on someone I’m not interested in.

Perry and Bush loath each other; definitely a positive. And today Perry suggested that Ben Bernanke be dragged off to Texas and horsewhipped/executed for “treason” if he prints any more money. Republicrat Karl Rove is in a tizzy. Sounds good to me. Perry polarizes, and I’m all for that. Perhaps he’ll select Bachmann for VP.

By the way, “nutcase” Ron was on FOX 10 minutes ago while I was in the hallway – “but you have no chance to win” (the old process media question)… and “what if you’re wrong and Iran drops a nuke on Israel?”. Ron Paul said “Israel can and should defend herself and we do not need to interfere. Israel has 300 nuclear weapons and I supported her attack on the Iraqi reactor…”

Meanwhile, here is the legacy of the Bush-Obama “mainstream” – ethanol mandates causing Global Instability:

Ron Paul speaks truth to statist power but will never be allowed to win the Republican nomination and probably will not pull more than 25% in any meaningful primary race (but he WILL get my vote!). Gary Johnson (bad on immigration) can't even get himself into the debate - so much for mass media "free speech" 2011 style. Michelle is straddling between the Neocon/Social-con statists and some libertarian ideas - a difficult balancing act. The rest of the bunch are "Republikeynesians" - spend money and cut taxes and bomb the planet Welfare-Warfare statists and basically Bush clones to run against the Messianic Afro-Bush (whom they hate for partisan and symbolic reasons more than actual policy). It makes for good TV like a football game but in the end, we will have more statism 2013-2017 with Texobama Perry, Mormon Obama, or Afro-Bush. I think dad Ron Paul is trying to pave the way for Rand in 2016.

As a lifetime resident of Texas I can say the man being portrayed in the national media bears absolutely no resemblance (except in looks only) to the the guy who's been the Governor of our state for years. Texas is doing better than any other state in these hard times but what folks need to understand is that the way our state government is set up, the Governor is almost a figure head, he has very little power. The Lt. Governor is actually much more powerful in the state government. That's how we survived G.W. Bush and Perry all these years without them destroying our state. Remember, Rick Perry tried to seize countless acres of land via eminent domain for his Trans Texas Corridor (I like to refer to it as the Rick Perry memorial highway). Doesn't exactly sound like the "small government, anti establishment conservative rebel" being portrayed on the tv does it? [Very good; thanks. I've posted this to my FB Wall too. Please join me on FB.]
