Perry: Obama 'Hell-Bent' on Socialism
Texas GOP Gov. Rick Perry accused President Barack Obama on Wednesday of “punishing” Texas and being “hell-bent” on turning the United States into a socialist country.
Speaking at a luncheon for a Midland County Republican Women’s group, Perry said that “this is an administration hell-bent toward taking American towards a socialist country. And we all don’t need to be afraid to say that because that’s what it is.”

How much would it cost to have Obama and his followers stay outside the USA, and let us have our country back?
elainenottoolate
Go get um Perry!
Mad-MO
Only if WE THE PEOPLE let him turn this into a socalist nation. There are more of us than there are of them and it's time to take a stand in every city, town and one horse hamlet in this country. Wake up America, we are bigger than his administration and just because we're scattered across this nation it doesn't mean we can't stand up and be heard. The SEIU "pickets", why can't we?. All across America.

Gov. Perry is correct.
He's not my governor....but I wish he was.
I hope that Texas re-elects Perry.
Hutchinson would be a mistake.

Perry believes all people who don't believe in Jesus will go to hell. Kind of a dangerous thought - wouldn't you agree?
meholliday
I don't believe in Jesus perse, and i'm not worried where I am going. Anyplace will be better than what Obama has in store for us here.

GOD BLESS GOV. PERRY...MORE THAN HALF THE COUNTRY ADMIRES TEXAS!!!

Texas will eventually withdraw from the Union. It will be the 12th largest economy in the world. Some people will leave, but many more will come in -- because they believe in liberty and refuse to accept tyranny! I think Governor Perry understands this.

Young Regressive: McVeigh wanna bes? So since you are a liberal zombie, you are a Hasan wanna be? Fool. Castro had Che executed because Che didn't like what Castro was doing when he got into power. You romanticise socialism as if it's your escape to something better, fool. Do you even know how beautiful Cuba was, have you seen the Country literaly falling apart? People are prisoners in their Country, they risk their lives to come in little boats to America. Fool.

Perry was a democrat until 1989...................
Ronald Reagan used to be a democrat, as well. He went on to become the greatest American President of the 20th century. Give Perry a chance. At least he understands who butters his bread, now.

Young Progressive,
This isn't a Nintindo Game any longer. This is about your freedoms and liberties. Or maybe you are just a paid Liberal Troll that hasn't a clue what is going on in your country. Or maybe you don't know that being a progressive might be akin to the people in Iran that are fighting and dying for their rights as human beings. Which is it?
meholliday
I guess you got your answer! He was a liberal Troll.

Listen...lapdog...Come back when you move out of mommy's basement.
All of u liberals are the same. Here's the problem..u offer NOTHING but taxes, and dependency. America was built on capitalism and it's NEVER going to change. Get that through your empty peanut shell u call a head.
Liberalism: Truly a mental disorder. Just look at the liberal/progressives. Show me just 1 who has a business model to re-grow the economy.
Answer: You can't. Now...shut up and get your sorry zit farm of a face back to the rags life Huffy and Kos. WHere all the frustrated hate filled losers go. We're investing millions into building more mental institutions, because that's where all you haters will be very soon.
You and your kind are nothing more than empty vessels.

THIS WHAT OUR TEACHER UNIONS are teaching our kids.everything is for free, if we kept going in obama socalist road these kids will be footing the bill,that if they can find a job,with everything control by the government. read the history about castro &HUGO
Sonny
This is just the beginning of the far left liberal socialist marxist movement to takeover full control of everything and everyone in america and then tax everyone and everything that moves.
This has been done before in facist dictatorships and communist govts throughout history,
ie; Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, etc., etc..
By forcing everyone think and behave alike, they can assume full control over everyone through their legislative laws and Policies, the if that doesn’t work, thru intimidation, thereby taking away any sense of individuality and independence, which is the American way.
That is why obama and the far left want so much to change the american peoples attitude, making the american people just accept this as normal. Apathy is what the democrats are depending on.
-
Don't let these far leftwing radical idiots like Obama and Pelosi, ever take away your American Individuality and Independence and Free thinking minds. That is what is going to keep you Free. The American Spirit that founded this great Nation in the first place. America, We MUST keep it that way.!!!!!!

I have lived now in Texas for 6 years. In that time I have come to respect Gov. Rick Perry. I came down here from South Carolina where Lindsay Graham si from. I wasn't too impressed with him. I attended several Tea Party rallies here in the Fort Worth area, and Gov Perry took the time to come to every one of them and to give a good long talk. And afterwards stayed around to talk to folks. I really liked that. He strikes me as a real approachable sincere tyoe of person...very much unlike the Jerk that is in the White House who seems to be only occupied with himself and his agendas! Go Rick Perry! Keep up the great work!!
A. Taxpayer
I wish Governor Perry would change his mind about running for President!
This is the man who can turn this country around! I wish my state was as financially sound as Texas is under his watch, and I wish I had a no nonsense governor like Governor Perry.
As President, he could appoint Joe Arpaio to head ICE!
countaxula
Perry was a democrat until 1989
and campaigned and supported Al Gore in 1988
he was also going to reduce property tax in 2002 then changed his mind
this CHIP program which has the major cities here fighting to get illegals for the funding purposes RICK PERRYS PROGRAM
he has been gov for 8 years and then all of a sudden decides to sent what 24 officers to the border?
and that has nothing to do with the election
nothing at all
yeah right
we believe you
no really
Texas Patriot 12
A handful of people should not decide the fate of 300 million. If this health care bill passes, Texas should nullify it as being unconstitutional. They should also review and nullify any and all other legislation coming out of Washington that enforces their tyrannical rule over the people. By the way the states are joined into this union voluntarily

2010 revolt
Gov. Perry sent the Texas Rangers after many months of waiting for the Federal Gov. to ANSWER his requests for help in combating the violence and gang problem on the border. This was done at the beginning of the year and had nothing to do with his run for re-election. As far as Hutchinson goes, she has been spending feverishly in DC with our tax dollars. Texans don't need her to bankrupt our state. Also I sent e-mails to her every week for 8 months and I received 1 response from her. This isn’t what I call an elected official whom is concerned about her constituents. Perry has done a remarkable job of keeping our state in fiscally responsibility and bringing in new companies to our state.

I dont know where you get your information
but the trans texas corridor was RICK PERRY'S PROPOSAL
after being lobiied by Dan Shelly on behalf of cintra and zachery construction
and Perry refuses to this day to let anyone see the terms of that deal
the only reason it is stalled is because of legislation

and texas conservative I dont know where you get your info
but the texas super highway was Perry's proposal and is currently held up in legislation

Perry didnt send more officers to the border till he was running for re-election as gov
he did support mccains bill and IF HE HAS CHANGED HIS MIND
it is only to get re-elected
at the beginning of his campaign he promised a million dollars to support border enforcement
ooooooh a whole million
his policies have given way to the santuary city cr@p that we now see in all our major cities
and he has waffled so much I was begging to think him and John Kerry were seperated at birth
Hutchinson ... soley stopped amnesty in the senate
and for that alone I would follow that woman into hell

Go Gov. PERRY!!!
We are no longer a nation of laws, we are a nation of men.
If you have enough money, political connections or power, you can do as you will.
The biggest weapon in a lawyer's arsenal is delay.
Think of all the lawyers in govenment. They will delay and bully as long as they can get away with it; and ultimately hope the other side will get tired or run out of money and quit.
Collateral Damage
To: Conservative Texan:
Yes, only delusional right-wing Foxinistas deriving their reality from the likes of Palin, Beck, Limbaugh and Hannity can believe that someone can be simultaneously a communist and a Nazi (and an Islamist).
George Orwell called this “doublethink” in 1984:
“The power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them....To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies — all this is indispensably necessary. Even in using the word doublethink it is necessary to exercise doublethink. For by using the word one admits that one is tampering with reality; by a fresh act of doublethink one erases this knowledge; and so on indefinitely, with the lie always one leap ahead of the truth”
That sums up perfectly the GOP-FOX right wing propaganda machine perfectly.
meholliday
....and your point is???? You just said a lot of nothing that means nothing.
True Blue American
So does your reading also apply to the Doublethinking process Obama has. where while Campaigning he said no to GOVT healthcare but now is forcing it down our throats?
