  2. Democrats clearly believe that it is the place of each and every one of us to be servants for our almighty and powerful government.

    The entire quote was:

    In America, the people are not subjects of government. The government is subject to the people. And it is up to us, to this present generation of Americans, to take a stand for freedom, to send a message to Washington that we’re taking our future back from the grips of central planners who would control our health care, who would spend our treasure, who downgrade our future and micro-manage our lives.
    Rick Perry says this and I believe him.

    The Progressives are coming out of the woodwork in Texas. They fear that Governor Perry will win and put a stop to their socialist utopia.

    Unlike most of you Yankees, Texas will always take a stand against tyranny. The current administration in Washington are all thugs.

    Obama and pals are making our people serfs and subjects of Federal Government.


    Rick Perry is just the man to return the government to the people.

  4. President Obama's summer woes have dragged his approval rating to an all-time low, sinking below 40% for the first time in Gallup's daily tracking poll.

    New data posted Sunday 08/14/11 shows that 39% of Americans approve of Obama's job performance, while 54% disapprove. Both are the worst numbers of the Obama presidency.

    Obama's approval rating has hovered in the 40% range for much of 2011, peaking at 53% in the weeks following the death of Osama bin Laden.

    But Americans' view of his job performance continued to tick downward as the debt-ceiling debate heated up. By the time he signed legislation averting a federal default, he was mired in the low-40% range.

    The polling setback comes as the Republican race to unseat him has kicked into overdrive. The past week has been dominated by the activity in Iowa ahead of the Ames Straw Poll, and the entrance of a new contender in Texas Gov. Rick Perry. The candidates have routinely assailed Obama's leadership in appealing to conservative activists who dominate this stage of the nominating contest.

    Obama is set to launch something of a counter-offensive with a three-day bus tour of the Midwest, a trip that includes two stops in Iowa.

  5. If President Obama embraced the GOP's proposals he could have garnered Blue Dog and GOP support while at the same time being seen by America as the protector of the solvency of Social Security and Medicare.

    Basically he would have guaranteed himself a second term… instead he tried to please his base and "play hard ball" with the Republicans. Only to find out that his brand of hard ball only works in the 12 and under age group… the big boys play a lot tougher than he does,,,?

    Perry Talks Like Bush, Could Win Like Reagan

    Perry, the straight-talking three-term governor, is bringing to the race a message and biography that couldn’t contrast any more starkly with President Obama’s.

    He grew up in rural Paint Creek, Texas, farming cotton in his early years, and attending the state’s land-grant university, Texas A&M. Obama went to Harvard Law School, earned his political chops in Chicago, spending much of his early career in academia. Perry has governed a low-tax, low-regulation state at a time when the president has sought to expand government’s role in the economy. The Texas governor’s blunt advocacy of conservatism and faith-tinged rhetoric couldn’t be any different from Obama’s nuanced rhetoric and cautious governing style.

    And he’s going to be bragging about his record of job creation in Texas, compared to the economic stagnation that’s been prevalent nationwide.

  7. A true conservative, Rick Perry is the only Texas governor since WWII to cut general revenue spending. He signed historic tax cuts and some of the strongest lawsuit reforms in the country. Since June ‘09, more than 40 percent of all net new jobs in America have been created in Texas.
