Yea, really dumb gaff. I don't like him today or tomorrow.

I should come back and explain why Cain irritated me so. It was his remarks on Perry being soft of immigration. All that showed is that he doesn't know the real issue and the policies that Gov. Perry has put in place.

There is no point in punishing people who are trying to play by the rules. And the in-state tuition is not free.

Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio happen to agree with Gov. Perry.

Did I say dumb?
I wouldn't support Perry either-- not even taking into account, "Camp N...."

Re: Herman Cain: Blacks Brainwashed

Being that Cain is black himself, he carries himself very well IMHO. He doesn't strike me as arrogant or better than anyone else, let alone out to get anyone.

Honestly, for Cain to run on the Republican ticket is a blow to the black community. Whether or not he can persuade those among him to see his perspective and vote for him is another story. After all, most black folks I know are very vocal on their support for democrats. There are a few who don't support them.

I could care less about skin color, unlike some of my democrat brethren . For the sole purpose of making a statistical statement by voting for someone because they think they'll get more representation, or because of skin color, is absurd and throws up red flags immediately. They're in it for the wrong reasons. I'm not alone on that one, even with some of my non-white friends...

Re: Herman Cain: Blacks Brainwashed

Now, look...

I think I'm just gonna vote myself in office. Sounds good to me. I mean, after all, we've heard all these years from people who say one thing but do another. How 'bout just nominate me? I haven't said what I'd do, which means I'd do something all the more.

As serious as it should be taken, politics can be humorous at times...

(and I'm just kidding on the self-nomination thing )

LOL! You could run on the same premise as Kinky Friedman when he ran for Governor of Texas.

Reporter: "Kinky, why do you qualify to run as Governor of Texas?"

Kinky: "Because I have absolutely no experience."

Agree? Disagree? Not sure?
Here is your brainwash:

She needs to read or be taught out of William Bradford's book, Of Plymouth Plantation.

Capitalism is a self-disciplinary system. It is the only organizing principle of human activity that requires us to be of value to the rest of society in order to prosper. Enron did not follow the rules. Capitalism dismembered the company.

Okay, that video stinks with ignorance, plain and simply put. But, sadly, because she's a kid, she's only going to repeat what she's been hearing or been told.

I just started seeing commercials this week from the NEA where kids are stating why the gov't needs to pass the jobs bill. Granted, my wife is a school teacher, and even if a local vote came down to it for the sake of keeping her career from derailing, I'd vote for a slight tax increase. But that's at the local level. So, when I see this commercial, I cringe in disgust because it's...(here comes that "F" word)...federal. On one hand, we have a President/administration preaching "jobs! jobs! jobs!" and how much we need them, yet he's trying to go after corporate america and "the rich" by taxing them even more, which in the long run will prevent them from having the funds to hire more people.

It's merely a viscious circle of confusion...
