That's also correct.

Remember when those tornadoes ripped through the south this past spring? I remember, because I live in Georgia. Well all those red state governors wern't crying about big government giving them federal aid and asking the president to declare those states disaster zones.

How about education. States do NOT have to participate in NCLB, they only do so to get federal dollars. Well no one is forcing these red states to participate. If you believe in states rights so much, don't participate.

Japans problems caused by some imagined Sun Goddess etc.

Rachel Maddow Show
Leave it to Rachel and leave it to her viewers (which aren't too many) to jump from blasting the Tea Party for one thing to blasting for another. The Tea Party isn't a bunch of religious right wing nuts, nor is the right wing of the party a bunch of nuts anymore than all liberal Democrats are socialist. There are a handful on both sides that probably need a head examination. Your asking if Perry is out of his mind is equal to someone on here, beacuse you are a left winger suggesting you are out of yours.

Say and spin anything? I think you meant the Republicans or the Tea Party or whoever controls them.
Have you ever heard of cut and paste, delete, etc? Do you think you might be a crazed idiot for being so far left or believing all the garbage? Of course you don't, but you do seem to think calling people creeps will make you seem a little more important instead of a little more immature.

BTW, we will see how Perry does against Obama if he gets the nomination.

Of course wierd things did not come from Rev Wrights mouth? Not to mention, you are falling into the sane group that believes everything you see on these tapes.

Well I disagree. Just my opinion and yours is just an opinion as well. Religious nut is relative.

The films clips from the show speak for themselves. They are the words of the religious nutcases on the Right straight from their mouths.

I doubt that I'm part of a tiny slice of former Republicnas who now see them as a dangerous caricature of a political organization. Their agenda is now harmful to my country and I will oppose them in every election.
What a bunch of nutcases
