Gov. Perry has brought a lot more jobs to Texas than Obama has brought to America, and these were in the private sector, not 100K goverment jobs.

Exactly! And he wasn't handed $Trillions of dollars to do it.

Latest poll shows Perry is in second place behind Romney even before he has said he is running. He is waiting to see what kind of money Romney has raised in the second quarter, which he has to announce before the 15th. Rumor is that it is not going to be as high as expected.

Bachmann as VP would flush any chance Perry has straight down the toilet.

But remember, jobs are not that important to many of the Democratic voters. They just want to talk about an obscure executive order he had that lasted 3 months for giving shots to girls that parents had an opt out option. THAT is a big issue for them.

In the same time that Texas and Perry created 47% of all jobs created in the last 2 1/2 years, Obama has caused our unemployment to go up 25%, and our national debt up 35% in that same period. The largest increase in national debt in history in that period of time.

It is like comparing an economics expert with a kid with his hand out asking to borrow money to go golfing. This will be a landslide.

What about Romney or Pawlenty as a VP? And remember Obama picked Biden and still won.

And other than a few gaffes, Bachman is actually a very intelligent and articulate lady.

Perry chose to bypass the legislature and on Feb. 2, 2007, he issued an executive order making Texas the first state in the country requiring all sixth-grade girls to receive the three-shot vaccination series (which cost about $120 per shot). The move generated a fierce public debate. Conservatives slammed Perry for promoting what they saw as an intrusion by the state into private health decisions of parents and their children. Some also complained that the mandate would encourage promiscuity among teenagers.

Many doctors, including Bill Hinchey, the president of the Texas Medical Association at the time, questioned the wisdom of rushing to mandate a drug that had been on the market for less than a year.

Doesn't something like that bother you?


Again, you are only telling half the truth on this NON issue.

HPV vaccine
On February 2, 2007, Perry issued an executive order mandating that Texas girls receive HPV vaccine that protects against some strains of the human papilloma virus, a cause of cervical cancer. The order provided vaccination free of charge to those who were not covered by insurance. The order included an opt-out provision for parents

And then on May 9, 2007, Perry allowed a bill to go into law that would undo his executive order.

So it only lasted three months, and gave parents and opt out provision. After 27 years in public office that is the best that you can come up with? Remember, Obama was good friends with terrorists, (William Ayers) and had an America hating pastor for years that he went to and and no accomplishments to speak of and still got elected President.


What Viking is not telling you in all his rah-rah-sis-boom-bah cheerleading is that Perry's former chief of staff, Mike Toomey, was a lobbyist for Merck, which created Gardisil, at the time. The legislature later repealed his order. Conflict of interest? Payback to a friend?

She hides it well.

We need people that are taken seriously, not people that have handlers that flinch every time they decide to speak extrmporaneously.

No, it's not a big issue for me. I was curious what your take on it was, that's all. You are famous for making mountains out of molehills and again, you didn't disappoint.

Here's a list of his claims that have been investigated by the Pulitzer-prize winning St. Petersburg Times.

As for your predicting who will win the next presidential election this early in the game, that's nonsense.
