I hope you realize that we are witnessing the re-election of Obama before our very eyes and there is nothing we can do about it, whether we like it or not!

Let this be a lesson to all future Republican candidates for President: Do not call us heartless for wanting to protect our nation and our pocket books. People are called illegal immigrants for a reason and neither they nor their children who happen to be born here under illegal circumstances deserve any right to receive in-state tuition before a legal resident or child of a legal resident elsewhere in this Republic. Rick Perry can take his internationalist policies and bleeding heart elsewhere!
You would think the Bilderbergers would have picked someone better than this moron. It almost makes one think he was put up by them as a useful idiot so as to advance another candidate who would otherwise have lost.edit on 9/25/2011 by Misoir because: (no reason given)

I think there is a couple people who could beat Obama if they were given the chance. Paul is one, and I also think Kucinich(sp?) could put up a good fight on the Democratic side.
Of course, Dems wouldn't run against Obama in this election, So all we have to look towards is the Republican ticket.
The Right is so stuck on this current NeoCon takeover that they have lost all objectivity and common sense.
You can't support any healthcare plan other than "fend for yourself", or you are called a socialist.
You can't support any immigration policy other than "send em all back", or you ar unAmerican.
You can't support a Palastinian state, or you are called antisemitic.
It has become to much for any sane person to support!

Excellent news. I called it, years ago when he gave the Republican response to the State of the Union address, I believe, and they shrouded him in this soft angelic looking light, that they would be trying to shove him down our throats. Does anyone remember that?
He's the last person we need in power at this time. Wouldn't hire that guy to cut my grass.
Look on the bright side. The NeoLib spiral of despair is coming to an end.

He is TPTB's candidate. I wouldn't underestimate the strings that will be pulled if he seems to be failing.
I mean, who would have ever though George W Bush would have made President, let alone a 2 term one?
I may end up eating my own words but for now, this is my opinion.

As neo-con godfather Irving Kristol once remarked, a neo-conservative is a ''liberal who was mugged by reality''. True to that description, neo-cons generally originated on the left side of the political spectrum and some times from the far left. Many, such as Kristol himself, have Trotskyite roots that are still reflected in their polemical and organisational skills and ideological zeal.

If you watched the last Republican debate, we have Mitt Romney to thank for Perry's downfall. Mitt proved that Perry was a Liberal Democrat. After Mitt Romney cornered him with questions, Perry ended up self destructing on stage.
Rick Perry is a Democrat trying to run on the Republican ticket.
Now, we can get to business with the real Republicans: Herman Cain, Mitt Romney, and Ron Paul.
Let us see what happens next.
