    Yeah I think Bachmann is taking too much "professional" campaign advice. They're distorting her message. Turning her into a wooden puppet.

    Sure, Sean Hannity and Mark Levin are very leery of him. Not to mention the guys on the Midnight Radio Network.

    Perry created jobs, and balanced his budget 6 times as gov.

    You do realize that most of TX, being paid min. wage is not bad since the cost of living is alot lower.

    VS Obama's record of no new minimum wage jobs.

    Easy call.

    I like Perry. I like his record. I think he can beat Obama easily and would be a strong leader.

    Bachmann will be destroyed by the media and we can't risk another 4 years of Obama. If she gets the nomination I will vote for her, however I am backing Perry right now.

    So, this should keep Perry from office, but keep Obama in office?

    Good job, Gov Perry had every advantage possible to generate revenue for TX, and even with all those advantages, he still ran a debt. That would be an example of the worst type of management.

    Perhaps if you can look beyond your hate she is simply stating the fact that unemployment money is epnt inside the USA and thus creates jobs.

    Thats a reality , perhaps one you wont to ignore but that is your problem.

    As I said lies from you on me and on obama.

    Sure destroying almost any state run program AND not being able to have any significant change in the economy, why bother voting for him?

    So we owe about $1K each here in Texas. While Barry has got us also owning another $50K at the federal level.
    Another horror story. The poor criminals will have to wait 15% longer to bet a free lawyer. Parolees will no longer get free coffee and donuts while they wait to see their parole officer. I'd cut both to "0" and make new lawyers work for free if they can't get the criminal to pay. You notice that the criminals seem to be able to come up with bail in most cases and then want us to pay for their lawyer

    You mean people have their constitutionally protected rights violated by state inaction.

    They have a right to an attorney, even one chosen by the state whether you like it or not. This way, justice can be applied to all people. [btw Public Defenders are some of the best trial attorneys out there given their work conditions]

    What you are telling me is you really don't like our democratic based justice system. Maybe trial by combat is more to your liking. Replace criminal court with Thunderdome perhapse?

    another barrack Obama might suck but the opponent sucks worse thread. I expect to see several thousand of these in the next year and a couple of months. Why? Because Barack Obama has done nothing positive so all he and his shills have are Chicago attack politics, he sure can't run on his record because all he has is failure. Expect this to be the dirtiest election in the history of the USA.

    I have not been here much so I don't know if anyone has started the Rick Perry is gay rumor here yet. I heard that one this morning from a moderate who voted for Obama in '08.

    No lies K, you have quite a track record on this forum as an Obama lemming.

    Where did I say I hate Pelosi? I believe she is a incompetent boob, but I don't hate anyone. BTW Einstein, if you are giving money to people for not working, where do you think that money comes from that you say is put back into the system? Yep, it comes right from the tax payers.

    Here are some examples of these desperate unemployed putting food on their tables:

    27 billion on a what 100 billion budget? thats quit bad.

    Sure but texas also lost the second most jobs of all the states.

    As for the companies moving, how does that benefit anyone besides texas? Giving tax credits payed for by uSA citizens who see a company move inside the USA onoly benefits that company nothing more. If he could atract foreign companies that would be a different matter.



    So innocent until prove guilty no longer counts in texas? Ah good to know.


    Those arent the only things being cut funny you edited those out

    ""The spending plan calls for a 13% hit to public education and a 7.6% drop in higher education support. Among the cuts, funding for pre-K Early Start programs would be slashed, and four community colleges would be closed."

    Probably you know this is very bad to do thats why you ignore it?

    Sure you lie, show me 1 post of mine where I said something like that.


    Its clear you do.

    So?
    First the money isnt given for "not working" but for people to get by until they get a new job. Second yes the money comes from taxpayers, doesnt matter what she said it flows back into the economy and thus creates jobs. Or are you trying to deny that USA citizens spending money doesnt create jobs?

    Its true. TX has a much lower cost of living. just look at the cost of homes there.

    Also, there is no state income tax in Texas. So, people bring home more.

    Do not be fooled by Perry. The guy is a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing. Do not trust him. If you liked Bush's spending levels - you'll love Perry's. This clown won't cut the deficit at all. He'll bend over backwards to compromise with Democrats as soon as he gets to Washington.

    They didn't have a business income tax either - until Rick Perry added one:


    Rick Perry’s Business Income Tax is Bad for Employment

    In 2006 Rick Perry passed an uneven business income tax in the state of Texas. This is in conflict with the Texas state constitution which states you can not have an income tax without a referendum. And for five years he has been able to get away with it. To the detriment of small business and preventing the creation of jobs in our state.

    Again, don't be fooled by Rick Perry. The guy is no conservative. He's a fraud.

    High job loss, huge deficit...sounds like his boss, but with even worse college grades and a more forked tongue.

    They can sling dung all they want. Attack Perry, Bachmann, who ever it won't make a difference. The Democrats are still going to have to run on their record of fixing the economy. This is why you'll see more of the attacks like in the OP's.

    The bottom line is unless unemployment, the economy, food and gas prices substantially improve by November 2012 the Democrats are going to get clobbered badly.
