If Perry gets elected--God forbid!--do y'all think he'll stop Sunday sales of alcoholic beverages? I do, and I also expect daylight-hours only alcoholic beverage sales and maybe a re-run attempt on Prohibition.
I also think he'll return the Oil Depletion Allowance back to 21% instead of today's 15%. That sure will be great for Big Oil, huh? Plus, I expect at least a 1/3 cut in Social Security benefits and Medicare. Heck, why not? Most everybody has a spare bedroom in which to put grandma, and we can all learn how to change IVs and adult diapers, huh?

Lets not forget that Texas, compared to other states has the highest number of minimum wage workers. The highest number of workers without health insurance, The highest number of children without health insurance and the highest number of adults without health insurance. It also has the highest number of people without a high school diploma. Doesn't sound like a place I want to live.

Sounds better than second term Barack WHO IS INSANE Obama.
Alchol sales are under the states. Different states have different laws for the sale. I do not see a President changing that.
Social Security has been so screwed up by the Democrats that we need to do someting about it. And this is an old chestnut that gets brought out by the media when ever there is a Republican president. They interview people that are eating Dog or cat food to afford medicine, they also start showing the homelss on the news again as if there were not homeless or senior problems under the Democrat.
the Media is predictable, the crazy liberals ar predictable, and they do not have a fix or a plan all they do is moan about the other plans saying not far enough or not enough. Stop looking at the grips of the left and see what they offer as a fix and what those fixes would do. all they say is tax, tax this, tax that, close the tax loophole they created. raising taxes only increase costs and create more poor people as jobs dry up.
Hey if we need to increase taxes why don't we increase the 60% that is tax on alchol to 75% if we need to raise taxes or 80%?
As for Oil companies, great anything that cuts the costs of production and the cost of fuel is great. Lowers the costs of all products.

Has Obama ever allowed normal citizens to pack a gun in their vehicle(without a CCW) and defend their homes against thugs that break in? Perry has! It wasn't already on the books, he signed it! Oh, we can still buy beer, wine on Sundays after 12 noon, just not liquor(which you should have stocked up on Saturday if you really drink that much. If you do, get help). One day I was driving through a southern state about 10 yrs ago, a Sunday, and stopped off to grab beer in the early evening to take to the hotel room. Coolers were padlocked per state law. You don't see that in Texas after 12 noon. Has Obama passed pro gun legislation? Not just ignoring current laws on the books, but put his signature on a pro gun bill? Perry has. Has Obama supported the "No Retreat Law"? Nope... Perry did, thus the "Texas Castle Law". A local thug with 20 felonies, breaks into your home, is raping your child, and holding a gun to your wifes head..........telling her to shut up...... Imagine that scenario...... If you say "I would call 911", then........ I'll leave it at that.

guzzijohn · « **Reply #9 on:** August 22, 2011, 10:35:25 AM »

Although I would be one of the last ones to support Perry I wouldn't make to much of the "D" in economics. I have worked with and around people with mental retardation (not counting republicans) since I was 15. During my freshman year the instructor I had for my intro to mental retardation class had a PH.D. but little hands on experience. I had more experience at that time than she did and we butted heads quite often, thus I received a "D". I have since had a very successful career working with people with mental retardation.

Anyone currently running would be better than 4 more years of Obama. There is no comparision. Warts and all, everyone of them has him beat by far. The choice is more of the Obamanomics/Hope & Change or a chance to change this dreadfull course. What choice does our country really have?......not much. Going over the cliff for sure seems off-base.

Mohawk · « **Reply #11 on:** August 22, 2011, 11:10:11 AM »

Cabin + 1. The "Hope and Change" is nothing more than misery and defeat. Three years into it we are worse off.

Do you think every doctor, nurse, or lawyer had straight A's?

Lost Farmboy · « **Reply #19 on:** August 22, 2011, 01:26:39 PM »

I would choose the doctor with Ds the nurse with Cs and the surgeon with As. I don't care what grades the lawyer got, I want to see him argue in court.

That was back when he was a Democrat. He ran the Gore Campaign in Texas.
But at least we know he got grades, NO ONE has seem an OBAMA transcript.

oldandslow · « **Reply #21 on:** August 22, 2011, 01:30:38 PM »

All I can tell you is "President Perry" sounds a whole heck of a lot better than "President Obama".

Don't put a lot of faith in college grades. Bill Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar for what that is worth.

You can give Perry an "F" on that. He isn't elected yet and already wants to trashcan the Constitution. If you think the 2nd amendment won't go, too, I heard there's bridge for sale in Brooklyn.

If you were worried about the constitution or the second amendment, you would not have voted the way you been voting your whole life. Your comment doesn't make any sense to me. If I were you I'd be trying to dump my voting habits and try something else, but I'm not you. So, "Obama for 2012" is about the size and scope of your life at this time. Or anyone who is democrat and not republican...doesn't matter really does it? That's as far as you can go Junior.

The most important word today is JOBS, and Perry seems to have some very good ideas. It's something Obama doesn't give much to thought to, except for finding new and amazing ways to kill them. He has promised to get around to the subject as soon as he is finished with his vacation. Wait - I know - it will involve "investments", which means throwing even more money down democratic ratholes.

Since Texas has the most people going there to get away from everything else, I would think that in itself shoots Guzzi's statements down. People migrate where they need to in order to survive. Guzzi's plans have been in place in our state a long time, we lost so many people we also lost representation. Facts are facts, they don't have anything to do with opinions or emotions. They left our state in ruins. Pictures are famous now of our cities. They would make movies there for sceince fiction, but there is no way to get camera crews in there and out safely.

It seems people are running away from the left...health care, big union wages, entitlements....for some reason the private sector is running away from it all. Fast as they can go. Texas will take the conservative hard working private sector folks, they won't want any hair brained ideas from the states they run from. They sure don't want any ideas from our state, we crashed.

We don't have any workers...minimum wage jobs were a chance to pay for school or work your way up...no jobs at all at ANY pay range.

Quote

The highest number of workers without health insurance,

Again..no workers here...so no health insurance OR jobs. The workers went to Texas to find one of those two things mentioned. Got to have a job before you can BUY health insurance...or be forced to buy it,
