Perry puts Wingnut's Panties in a wad over tuition

[Laura PourMeADrink]

While searching online, to figure out why Perry would give a shit about
giving children of illegal aliens an in-state tuition break, i ended
up on the dark side and read these comments:

Re: Perry's In-state Tuition Break

"Well, Perry is completely off my list now. He’s down there with Myth."

"W all over again, no thank you. It’s Palin for me."

"This was just disgraceful. Looks like Perry will NEVER get it on immigration."

"Now Perry says that I have no heart. You no (sic) what Perry no longer has? My support for the nomination. Screw him."

"Channeling Lindsay effing Graham is not the road to the nomination, Rick."

"It’s becoming more & more obvious that Perry doesn’t have a BRAIN"

"Perry’s done. Palin is the only person who can save us from Romney now."

"Perry looks like a used car salesman and sounds just like every other pos the gop has propped up.
No Mitt, no Perry."

"You are absolutely right! Sarah palin 2012 or bust"


P.S. Why did Perry do this? My best guess votes and future votes(Dream Act). Mexican American population in Texas is 37%

1. How is TX not in play given that 37% and the anti-immigrant fervor of the Rethugs?

2. Actually it is ! Listened to KLBG the other day and they quoted

a recent poll that showed Perry had only 6 points over Obama in
a hypothetical

8. Ron Paul, also a Texan, may play decently here in TX. But make no mistake...

Republicans do their duty and vote Republican. And they vote more regularly than Democrats and others.

It'll be interesting to see how Ron Paul does here, for the nomination. But then, they'll figure he can't win the general election, so they may vote for Perry, anyway.

Also, don't forget the factor of wanting "our guy" in the White House.

3. demographics

as long as he gets the nomination, he can pocket the votes of the true believers no matter what. They aren't going anywhere. He can take them for granted. But the 30-percenters aren't enough to win the general election, and so he needs to pick up some more votes - hispanic / latino votes would be good for him. He is trying to throw a bone.

4. Yup...only explanation. Just like the vaccine deal - it is anti-typical

for him to actually care about a human being. It's against his character.
Especially coupled with the fact his buddy's company stood to gain.

Same with tuition.

5. "OMG. Perry is nothing but a stinkin Republicon." - RepubliBaggers (R)

"Speaking frankly, America do not needs another one of us loser a-hole fail freaks."

- RepubliBaggers (R)

7. omg...hahaha. So is "Republicon" mean something? or is

it just misspelled? Oh, I get it...Baggers do not think the are Republicans

[butterfly77]

6. These stupid...

Dumb ass people really believe that Palin can be President,she would quit in the first week they don't have a clue what it takes to be a President.

[CitizenLeft]

9. "Perry’s done. Palin is the only person who can save us from Romney now."

Oh dear.

10. Panties in a wad

is a requirement for wingnuts. Given where they keep their brains, it helps to preserve that twisted thinking . . .
