    Rick Perry is a religious zealot and a hypocrit too. He was on track to be the most prolific mass killer in US history.

    Subject to the draft where were you? And please address the questions asked.

    So no one went to school to get an education? To get a degree so they could get their COMMISSION WHEN THEY JOINED THE MILITARY.

    Explain to my how else Perry would be able to fly military aircraft without getting his degree first?

    Perry's draft number was 275, he would not have had a worry about having to avoid the draft he would not have been called.

    So your whole assertion is false on it's face.

    Why do you even care if you don't even live here and are so ignorant of US history?

    Most Americans are totally unaware of their real history - you are no exception.

    I was drafted in early 1966, before the lottery. I only had one year of college. I scored very high on my written tests in basic training. They offered me O.C.S., Fixed Wing Flight School, and Helicopter Pilot School.
    So, it was not necessary to have a degree, but you had to have a fairly good IQ (GT) to get a commission.

    When I said you...it was not about ''you'' personally, but the people who support Obama's ideology in general...However it was you that was dumping on Perry and conservatives...

    Well that's all good and fine, as far as opinions go. I'm just trying to find out if you're telling the truth about your OP. What is your source that Perry dodged Viet Nam? Link? Video? Note passed in math class? Your best friend's girlfriend had a cousin who told you? God? (Just goofin' around, no hostility intended).
    Trying to find out where you came up with this.

    I'd say I represent the majority of Obama supporters, dispite his ideologies or political labels. You guys like to segregate and marginalize those that have differing views, makes it like shooting fish in a barrel when arguing. We like to include a fuller/wiser perspective.

    It's hard to debate this without a proper context. What is the history of the US that is ignored and why are you so sure of your preferred version of it?

    So we should just take your word for it? I've asked a simple question 3 times. What is the source of your post? You've dodged it 3 times. Well gee, you're just so much more credible than those silly Americans who want even more, than the word of some anonymous guy on a message board...

    btw, I'm not even a Perry supporter but I am kinda fond of facts.

    It's a disingenuous smear given:
    a) that these 'liberals' likely opposed that war - and
    b) None of them would vote for the guy even if he did go to Vietnam.

    Did they bother to give McCain a chance even in their minds? He was a war prisoner for Christ's sake and a moderate politically to boot but they preferred Obama.

    Funny, when others do that you call it grouping people,,when you do it....not so much...
    Conservatives are individuals,,some support Gay marriage, some do not, some support abortion others do not....see how that works?

    This is just the first of the personal attacks against Perry. The Obama re-election team has already stated they they plan to destroy their opponents. They have to, they certainly can't run on Obama's record.But I believe that the people of this country have woken up enough to reject this kind of smear attempt.

    Perry has more True Grit Americanism in his little finger. Than most all these trash barking liberals put together.

    Can you liberals spell? - 'SCARED'

    Funny, I've not heard 'grouping' being tossed about lately, and including groups is better than excluding, in my book.

    It's not the gay or abortion support I'm concerned about, but the far more dangerous aspects they tend to glom towards. I don't like how that works.

    He is claiming that not immediately volunteering for military service at age 18 is the same thing as dodging service. Perry was 18 in 1968, and instead of enlisting he went to an ROTC program in college, graduated in 1972, and went into the Air Force.

    His effort is part of a massive smear campaign that the Left has launched to try to tear Perry down. It won't work because Perry doesn't have any skeletons in his closet. Texas politics can get rough, especially when you have the Bushes against you as Perry did in his last primary race. If he had it dirty laundry it would have been found by now.

    Coming from someone who claims to come from a part of the US which was treasonous and may still be Im not at all surprised that you would speak so highly of a separatist like Perry.

    This thread needs to be closed. It's nothing but a Pro-Obama Canadian spouting inaccuracies.

    "Pro-Obama Canadian, inaccuracies", is that the best you can do sonny? I have a degree in History, Theology, and Engineering. Believe me my son I know what I'm talking about.

    I do not believe you one bit. I see no evidence that you know anything about what you are talking about.

    Most Canadians are clueless to American history as you have shown and make fools of themselves claiming they know better than we Americans.

    So don't dodge this time, why are you so concerned about American politics and why should any Americas give a hoot what you think about it especially when your opinions are so misinformed?
