Title: Rick Perry Says Drug War ‘May Require Our Military in Mexico’ (Will GOP ever stop being crazy? Face it folks, Perry talks crazy because the GOP base is crazy. Or maybe Perry's oil backers want all that Mexican oil and the drug war is the excuse?)

Oct 1, 2011 6:41pm Rick Perry Says Drug War ‘May Require Our Military in Mexico’ Texas Gov. Rick Perry spent today campaigning in New Hampshire, hammering away at his message that “over-taxation, over-regulation, and over-litigation” are hurting business and the U.S. economy, but he also advocated for a larger government role in the war on drugs. At a house party in Manchester, Perry said that ending the drug war in Mexico “may require our military in Mexico.” “The way that we were able to stop the drug cartels in Colombia was with a coordinated effort,” Perry said. “It may require our military in Mexico working in concert with them to kill these drug cartels and to keep them off of our border and to destroy their networks. I don’t know all the scenarios that are out there but I think it is very important that we work with them, to keep that country from failing.” The comments raise questions about whether the governor would support military action by executive order. Perry has long supported sending U.S. troops to Mexico to help with the drug war.

His good buddy Calderon must be pissed....lmao You on the Left should shift targets. Perry's done.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Perry is done because the GOP is more crazy than he is. They are upset he funded education for illegal alien's children rather than hunt them down with blood hounds or some such.

Ah, no...but its okay if you want to pretend.

Perry vaccinates against HPV to prevent girls from getting cancer - GOP goes crazy including making up crazy lies like Bachman did about a mother of a girl that went retarded after a "shot".

The GOP didn't do that, Bachmann did, and the result is she's no longer contending for the nomination. At least make a passing attempt at being honest about what happened. That noted, Perry's done. Put a fork in him.

She was done before that remark. It just reinforced WHY she is done. Goodwinson's point is spot on, tho. There is a Moonbat wing in the GOP that, while it is not a substantial plurality, it is still a significant one. Bachmann, rather than focus on the crony capitalism aspect of Perry's decision - which was the right tact, imho - went the Moonbat, visceral route. Given her previous gaffes - a generous term for them to be sure - this was no more than an extrinsic exercise in why she is safe in her Moonbat district but nowhere else.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" I lurk to see if someone other than Myst or Pookie posts anything...
All parties have their moonbat elements (you can find anti-vaccination kooks on the left as well) but the GOP has embraced them more because the more stable elements of the GOP quit the party. I quit the GOP as a member into Bush's first term. Now the GOP is a party that has as a litmus test, denying science like evolution. That's just too much for any sensible person to remain in such a party as a member. So the only base that can be counted on are the kooks and as the debate audiences have shown - there is a consequence for letting the kooks into the door.

I think you are flat out unstable, and lying your ass off here. No big deal, the dwarf you keep pinging has been doing the same thing on the internet for a decade now.
