Perry: Government you can TRUST.

[Doktor Howl]

If the Movie Gallery stock ownership were pushed, i think a lot of people might see that and think, "well, hell. I rented movies from Hollywood Video all the time when they were around and i don't think I am hypocritical just because i didn't know that the company that owned it also distributed pornography..."
So, it may come across as grabbing at straws to some?

Do you know whether, since the 2006 date of this article, anyone has shown that Perry was aware of the conflict between his stock ownership and his supposed values?

Righteo.  Nothing to see here.

[Adios]

I begin to see why you are angry Dok.

[Cain]

No, what I meant was that I didn't notice the font. I noticed the ad, and I thought it was the shit.

That's what everyone else noticed, too.

When I realized the media wasn't going to carry the porn story, I knew - right down in my gonads - who the next president will be.  Because people get a good laugh at a poster like that, and then stop caring.  My money says that Perry's people were actually behind that poster, to preempt any accusations as people making shit up based on the poster.  And Perry's fans, and the country in general, either support or don't care about Perry's secessionist rambling.

So we'll wind up with a  dominionist president.  Whee!

Which is no more than this country full of fucking morons deserves.  

It was a Ron Paul supporter, apparently.

The usual suspects have already declared that whoever was behind the poster were "ultraradical leftists" and, when corrected, then went on to declare Ron Paul an "ultraradical leftist" because he was against the War in Iraq or some such shit.

No, not angry.  Frustrated, though I really should know better.

In any case, America will probably elect another crazy fucking Texan.  And why not?  It's the government America deserves.

[Elder Iptuous]

Well, has anything else been discovered about this in the past five years?
if it was just something in his stock portfolio, and he wasn't aware of the conflict then it would be weak.
however, if someone uncovered that the AFA had contacted him about it, and he didn't sell his stocks.....
well, that would be awesome!

I've heard that.  I don't believe it.

Even if Paul's people did it, Perry couldn't have gotten better ammunition than if he wrote it himself.

Move over Nyx, another inbound American escaping before the Mexicans start guarding the border to keep us out.

That's what vetting is for.  Either he doesn't care, or he's too incompetent to look (which, largely, is why McCain wound up with Sarah Crazypance).

In any case, he gets it hung around his neck.

But that won't happen, because the media has already decided who the next president will be...And America will, of course, do what it is told.

You can go.  I'm going to hang around and watch the yahoos get what they've been screaming for.  Also, to hear the left whine.

You really think he's electable?
i hope to hell you're wrong.  I just figure that Bush is still a bad taste in the country's mouth and Perry would just be seen as another Bush...
i remember how many times the 'annointed one' for the republican nomination changed during the last campaign, too.

Last week, I didn't think he had a chance.

Now, I KNOW he's electable.  You can tell who the media is siding with by what they DON'T say.

Nixon was a bad taste in the country's mouth, he resigned and Ford filled in for a little while, Carter got elected because people were fed up witht the GOP. He served one term, and then we got REAGAN.

This country has the attention span of a gnat.

[President Television]

So I just skimmed over Rick Perry's Wikipedia article, wondering what all the fuss was about.

Holy shit. He's the worst presidential candidate possible. He's like some kind of caricature of the hypocritical religious right.

The worst part is that I would almost prefer Reagan compared to any of these people. Hell, I would be ok with Romney as president in comparison to the other GOP candidates, but we know that's not going to happen.
