Title: Why Is Drudge Linking to Alex Jones's "Info Wars" Site?

As I normally do on a daily basis I visited the Drudge Report. On the left hand column there are three links regarding Texas Governor Rick Perry.

The first link is this: National Journal: Perry Road Tests Stump Speech

The second link is this: NBC NEWS:Perry: Stand Up and Stop Apolgizing

The third link? Infowars.com.: Bilderberg Approved Perry Set To Become GOP Frontrunner

This is apparently not the first time Drudge has linked to that charlatan Alex Jones, but this piece is absolutely ridiculous. Drudge loses credibility by linking such crap on his site.

First there's the title. Rick Perry if he gets in will be formidable,but does anyone really think he becomes the automatic front runner? He's well known with conservatives and in Texas, but relatively unknown to most Americans. Most polls that include Perry have him in single digits.

The lead paragraph:

"Every indication suggests that Bilderberg-approved Texas Governor Rick Perry is set to become the front runner in the Republican race to challenge Barack Obama for the presidency, illustrating once again how a shady, secretive and undemocratic global elite holds the reigns of true power while Americans are distracted by the delusional notion that they have a genuine choice in 2012."

Isn't it great to know that the world's most trafficked website (?) is perpetuating Alex Jones's absurdities that our Republic is a sham?

There's more:

"Texas Governor Perry, a protégé of Karl Rove, is very good at acting like a down-home populist, but that’s all it is – an act. Perry is George W. Bush 2.0."

I may not be an expert on Texas politics but I have a clear impression that the Perry's and the Bush's don't care for each other. Have we ever heard Karl Rove's name mentioned in connection with Perry's tenure as Lt. Governor and now Governor? In point of fact, Karl Rove actively supported Texas Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison in her primary effort to defeat Rick Perry's bid for a third term just last year. Perry crushed her and Rove and his Bush supporters went down to ignominious defeat at the hands of Perry in the GOP primary. I'm quite certain G.W., Rove and Senator Hutchison (who's retiring) would not categorize Perry as Bush 2.0. The rest of the article goes on with Jones's usual conspiracy nonsense even suggesting that Perry's participation in an Istanbul conference violated the "Logan Act". Oh and of course the conspiracy to nominate Rick Perry is to stop Ron Paul's momentum.

Matt Drudge does yeoman's work sifting through items for our perusal, but someone needs to call him on this crap. It's embarrassing to intelligent and thoughtful discourse.What a waste.

He's a Tampa Bay FL neocon libtard. Probably voted for all three Bush's including Jeb, and also Juan McAmnesty.

Hates America, loves wal-mart, outsourcing, atzlan, wars everywhere, and would like to send Mat Drudge to Gitmo for linking to a pro-American article at Alex Jones' website.

[Kevin Ward] a Tampa Bay FL neocon libtard.

I thought 'libtards' were retarded libertarians.

Is Alex Jones in the same category as Art Bell?

And is Infowars similar to Justin Raemondo's Anti-war?

Bilderberg-approved Texas Governor Rick Perry

I am constantly amazed at how short the memories of the average Republican voter is. No one seems to remember that it was Perry who proposed the Trans-Texas Corridor in 2001. No one seems to remember his whoring for the North American Union. In 2001-2003, he was among the top five most hated Republicans in the country if "conservative" (hardy-har-har) political forums are any indication. He was called everything but a son of God then and yet now here he is being pitched as a serious candidate for the presidency by many of these same politcal sites (LP being just one).

It's no damned wonder both parties stab their voters in the back whenever they have the opportunity. The memory of the average voter is so short that they will never be held accountable.

Why don't you go find out for yourself?

When I first started listening to his radio show, AJ sounded like a complete loon...

There was only one small problem: he sources EVERYTHING.

When he talks he sources everything.

Pick a subject:

New World Order?
An elitist eugenics plan?
Bilderberg meetings?
Flouride put in the water to intentionally poison people?
Radiactivity in the water?
Toxic immunization programs, that literally poison our kids with heavy metals?

All that and more.

And he'll give you the exact sources- documents from our government, the IMF, the WHO, UN, etc. etc. etc... And you can go look at the stuff for yourself. They post this stuff, because they're PROUD of it...

Don't dismiss AJ (or Justin Raimondo either, for that matter) without giving them an objective chance...

JMO.

Bye, rat-boy mike. We'll miss you. [NOT]

I know there was something I didn't like about him. It was the trans texas corridor.

But what is that American union you were talking about that you say he supports.

North American Union

THE NAU: IT'S THE ELEVENTH HOUR - GET BUSY - From 2006

There is a ton of information if you Google North American Union. You will also get many links if you Google Rick Perry North American Union.

Perry is a big government Republican globalist.

I should have said where does Perry support this concept?

Can't comment on Alex Jones since I've not read that much on him but Justin Raimondo (thanks for the correction) used to post at FR and seemed reasonable enough except when it came to BDS. Similar names that was all. I'll revisit both of them.

No politician in their right mind is going to stand up and admit to the American people that they support doing away with America's sovereignty by combining with Mexico and Canada in order to form a new government. Neither Bush nor the Mexican and Canadian executives admitted it either. However there is ample evidence that it was and likely still is a goal. The Trans Texas Corridor,along with the SPP were components of the NAU.

The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) was a region-level dialogue with the stated purpose of providing greater cooperation on security and economic issues.[1] The Partnership was founded in Waco, Texas on March 23, 2005 by Paul Martin, Prime Minister of Canada, Vicente Fox, President of Mexico, and George W. Bush, President of the United States.

It was intended to assist, rather than replace, existing bilateral and trilateral institutions like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and to work towards the three North American countries working cooperatively in the face of common risks and economic competition from low cost, multi-modal transportation system along the International Mid-Continent Trade Corridor [Trans Texas Corridor] to improving both the trade competitiveness and quality of life in North America.

Perry's connection with SPP/NAFTA/NAU is undeniable.
