12. Thats correct..And we thought George Bush didn't have a chance
The dumber the better..This is the caliber of person the corporate mafia wants...They only want the body..They need a puppet as in Bush type puppet...George Bush was in the White House for 8 years and he still believes he was President..
If Perry gets the nomination they will choose the VP, a corporatist as in the Cheney type.. What is really scary is the fact that there are unlimited corporate dollars out there that can buy election results.Yes..I believe this will be another election where votes wont be counted and votes will be added...

14. W did have Poppy in his corner though, that must have counted for a lot.
Perry is more telegenic than W, which may give him a boost.

Of course, there is always election stealing to contend with.

15. Galileo got out voted by religion...
... and he was still correct. 300 years later... he is still correct. 1,000,000,000,000,000 years from now, he will still be correct

and religion will still be WRONG.

19. Read "The Family" and you'll know what we are in for with Perry.

The Family by Jeff Sharlet. I'm reading it again now and, oh geez. Yes Virginia they really do want a theocracy led by Jesus Christ..not the church and Sunday school Jesus Christ. The Jesus Christ of the powerful elite. Just him. Not the Bible. Not the laid back quiet Jesus that came up with those pesky little sayings about the meek inheriting the earth..OH HELL NO. As Jeff Sharlet says, they believe in a Jesus Christ on meth. A Jesus Christ that has CHOSEN THEM.

Sorry for using the words Jesus Christ so many times. Believe me, it was needed to get my point across...if I did get my point across. Oh, and it's not only with Perry. Just about any Republican. I'm beginning to think we would be much better off with a Mormon if we do end up, no my brain won't go there!

20. Just about any Republican.
AND some Dems... like my rep Mike McIntyre


No women though (that I know of)... hmmmmm....


A raunchy Boys Club using Jesus as an excuse to do as they please. (Sounds like the Vatican!)

23. Yep, what comes through in Sharletts' book is that if these monsters acquire riches,
it's cuz "Jesus/God/Deity" wants them to have it and the best way to serve "Jesus/God/Deity" is to acquire more.

How's that for rationalizing greed?

32. I need to read that, thanks...
Have heard about "the Family" here and there,
but they are getting to close to power not to know more.

4. He's Bush with better retention of his acting lines...
Never a better actor than Ronald Reagan int his arena, however.

On the other hand, I'll bet Rick likes BBQ

6. Following Perry's line of BS
We shouldn't consider a Governor for President because Pontius Pilate, as Governor crucified Jesus.

Perry, you're fired.

7. I didn't know Galileo ran for public office. So all you old folks
receiving those SS checks, Perry thinks you're living a lie, so I think you need to hand them over.

30. I think he's confusing Gallileo with Ernest and Julio Gallo
They got voted out by Bartles and Jaymes.

21. As I said in another thread... about Perry's true believer followers
Who probably have no idea what a "Galileo" is, anyway....

One of the Ninja Turtles????

and who's "Miss Miller" anyway? And why won't she let him go?

Forget it!

Go Perry!

11. No, he's promoting science and scientists over ignorance and religious dogma.
He is refuting his own position but he is too much of an idiot to realize it.

31. I can't bear to watch this... is this ALL Rick Perry or are there a few
other stupid crazy things, like stuff Michele said, or even Santorum ?

Just a guess, I can't bear to watch any of these idiots anymore, I already know how stupid they all are, how anit-science, how pro religion, how pro business anti people
