Perry Accuses Obama Of Conspiracy To Bring In The Undocumented
Radditz properly pointed out that it was a Bush-era law that allowed children into the country.
RADDATZ: Governor, do you really believe there’s some sort of conspiracy to get people into the United States by the federal government, by the Obama administration?
PERRY: When I have — when I have written a letter that is dated May of 2012, and I have yet to have a response from this administration, I will tell you they either are inept or don’t care, and that is my position.
We have been bringing to the attention of President Obama and his administration since 2010, he received a letter from me on the tarmac. He sends — I have to believe that when you do not respond in any way, that you are either inept, or you have some ulterior motive of which you are functioning from.

Keep blaming Obama for actions Bush took. It’s working out swimmingly.

I love how the gopers are now ready to embrace W’s presidency by giving away “I miss W” T-shirts for donations. While I doubt many of them will be worn by those who get them, the news of them will remind voters of W’s disastrous presidency.

Heh. I saw a motorist the other day with an old “Bush/Cheney” sticker on his car. He should be so embarrassed.

I still see McCain/Palin stickers down here in Texas, I guess stupid never really does go away.

My conservative mother was embarrassed that she voted for Bush, not once but twice.

I did too. I also have an “I stand with Wendy” bumper sticker, of course I live in MO so I get questions on it all the time.

The difference is that my Mom was a moderate, whereas today’s’ Republicans have ventured off the crazy cliff. She never agreed with them wanting to cut necessary programs and….wait a second here…she was a RINO!
Carla Akins July 6th, 2014 at 5:54 pm
Me too, I was a Republican, when they were actually Republicans. It didn’t take long after the 2nd Bush vote for me to realize how wrong I had been.

good to know that we still have some sane conservatives out there.

Well, Carla, at least you’ve finally met the OZ of Liberalland.

Or they haven’t figured out how to scrape them off their bumpers.

Was that the line green DeSoto?

Whenever an interviewer delves beneath the scripted Republican talking points (“secure the border!”) and ignores the nonsensical, evidence-devoid efforts to propagate conspiracy theories (“it’s a socialist plot!”) … stripping off the layers of banal rhetoric …
… a complete void of substantive, feasible policy proposals is exposed.

That’s our Rick, sulking because the administration doesn’t bother to answer his stupid letters.
Carla Akins July 6th, 2014 at 5:14 pm
Seriously, the first question must be was it legible and did it make sense? Perhaps the President was being nice by not answering as to not embarrass the Gov.

Perhaps it was in crayon.

One he stole from Denny’s?

Slick Rick didn’t have his magic glasses on when he wrote the letter, so it was written in his native language of scatterbrain.

Oh, good. He’s still crazy.
