Poll Shows Tea Partiers Favor Perry to Bachmann by More Than Double

While Michele Bachmann founded the Tea Party Caucus in the House of Representatives before she even decided to run for president, Texas Governor Rick Perry, her 2012 rival, is reportedly more popular among Tea Partiers, garnering double the support in a recent Gallup poll.
The poll, released Friday, shows Perry with 35 percent of Tea Party supporters while Bachmann trails considerably at 14 percent.
According to Gallup, 38 percent of Republicans most concerned with social issues favor Perry, despite Bachmann’s long track record of social conservatism. Perry also curried favor among voters who think government spending and power is the most important issue facing the country.
Do you think these findings mark the end of Tea Party support for Bachmann now that Perry is a contender for 2012?

Posted on August 26, 2011 at 10:53pmI‘m with y’all regarding Ms Bachmann and Mr Perry… for various reasons, they make my teeth hurt.
I was also with you in favor of Mr Paul, but the thing is… man, just a few days ago, I gave the guy a serious study, and it was deeply disturbing to learn about his take on Iran gaining access to nukes. The short version was like “what right have we to interfere in that?”
Granted, my personal (and total) superstition is the Christian one. I believe the Bible wholeheartedly, to include the prophecies in Daniel and Revelation. And with those in mind, the future of Israel and all the world is already a known quantity. Our stance on Iran and nukes can’t impact that beyond fulfilling some unquantifiable portion of it.
But stepping away from my personal beliefs and viewing the matter as, simply, a human… it seems unconscionable. Whether we like it or not, we‘re still one of the world’s superpowers, with the frequently demonstrated ability to gravely impact events half a world away. And to wash our hands of Iran’s nuclear ambitions…
Well, anyway, yeah. It wrecked my love for Ron Paul. I still dig the guy otherwise, but that was simply too much.

Posted on August 26, 2011 at 11:07pmThat’s right S_MALC13. The Ron Paul and the Ron Paul campaign is really about re-educating America to what can only be called Neoliberalism. Which, based on the evidence and writings of its supporters, appears to be a thin gruel of free markets, and non-interventionism seasoned heavily with anti-Semitism, morally obtuse Neo-Confederates, and an outspoken contempt for both conservatism and conservative leaders past and present.

Posted on August 26, 2011 at 11:21pmWhat is this Ron Paul night? He right about the Fed and that’s it. His nonsense about Iran is just insanity. Perry is joined at the hip with Grover Norquist who is a puppet and schmoozer for the Islamists. Perry also worked with a Muslim leader to get a curriculum into Texas schools that teaches how wonderful Islam is, that Mohammed was the exemplary human and that Jesus was just a muslim. It doesn’t mention their bloody conquests or their debasing of non-muslims and women, or that they declared war on us back in 1979. Given time, Perry’s flaws will be made known. Romney is the pretty boy wealthy country club elitist. Michelle Bachmann is smart, articulate knowledgeable and expert in tax law. She served in her state legislature and this is her second term in the House. She is one of the few who would watch and blow the whistle to let us know what was going down.

Posted on August 27, 2011 at 1:06amRon Paul has always been honest with the people. Ron Paul has always voted for what he says he believes in, he has not voted for or to extend the Patriot Act, and he stand for individual Liberty. What more could you ask for in a politician, let alone a President. Our new George Washington / Thomas Jefferson has been here all along. He is decades ahead of Beck, and all anyone can do to try to tear him down is lie or resolve to childish name calling. I will do all I can to help get him elected, because I believe if anyone but Dr. Paul is elected we are done, and the next President to sit in the Oval Office will be the last president to preside over the worlds largest economy. China will quickly overtake us, and I hope all you neo-cons & progressives alike can get together over a cup of Tea or a Pint, eat a banger a pretend we are still as great as we once were, Just like our brothers and sisters across the pond we will regulate and socialize ourselves to death.

Posted on August 27, 2011 at 2:06amRon Paul doesn’t believe, based on CIA info, that there’s evidence that Iran is working on a weapon. He believes they’re not a nuclear threat and that their military and technology ARE A JOKE. Besides, Iran can buy a WMD from any allied nation (Russia, China, North Korea, etc.) or any rogue militaristic group that owns dirty bombs. And for that matter, the FBI and CIA have already reported, a decade ago, that terrorists have possibly already strategically placed small dirty bombs or suitcases around major US cities (due to our unsecured border). North Korea has nuclear powers, and their leader is really crazy. Should we use Executive Orders again (these past Wars haven’t been constitutionally declared by Congress) and start war with N. Korea for 5 or more years? Should we send our troops to these foreign lands to sacrifice their lives, Again? When will this end?

Posted on August 27, 2011 at 2:22amAs regards to Ron Paul’s foreign policy and that of the Founding Fathers, President George Washington said in his farewell address, “The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations, is in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. Europe has a set of primary interests, which to us have none, or a very remote relation. Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concerns. Hence, therefore, it must be unwise in us to implicate ourselves, by artificial ties, in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics, or the ordinary combinations and collisions of her friendships or enmities”.
President Thomas Jefferson followed in his inaugural address, “peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none”.

Posted on August 27, 2011 at 2:27amRick Perry is a former Democrat that supported Al Gore for President (1988) and chaired Gore’s campaign in Texas. He supported a 5.7 million dollar tax increase in Texas, which is still the largest ever passed in that State. As a Democrat in the House, he voted to increase the amount of income state legislators received. (http://www.texastribune.org/texas-po…emocrat-years/)
Later in his political career, as Republican Governor, he endorsed a 6 billion dollar increase to fund Health services. He now takes pride in Texas creating jobs and so forth, when in actuality many of those jobs are Government jobs funded partially by the federal Government’s stimulus money, almost exactly what liberal Governor O’Malley is doing. He mandated vaccines on young girls. He allowed in-state tuition for illegal aliens (something we’re against here in MD). He has had no actual and meaningful investigations into the TSA in Texas although there was a major outcry by Texas Citizens and Tea Party state representatives. He proposed the construction of a major highway costing around $145+ billion dollars that benefits foreign interests and investors, a plan actually intended to advance a North American Union. (And we‘re worried about O’Malleys $60+ million dollar Purple Line project?) Texas’ sanctuary cities have grown while in his Governorship. He was against implementing a similar Arizona SB1070 styled law proposed by state legislators.

Posted on August 27, 2011 at 2:29amThe Bilderberg group does exist. Most members and attendees are from North America and Western Europe. Influential and in Power individuals from government, industry, communication, banking, finance, media, academia and the military-industrial complex are invited and present. Attendance is by invitation only. Meetings are private and no details may be disclosed to media outlets. Several figures from other nations have attended the groups meetings and some have later become high appointed or elected (through the influence of the media) officials (Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Neelie Kroes, Pascal Lamy, Stephen Harper, Rolf Schweiger, Fu Ying). Former and present high officials and presidential candidates have attended the groups meetings (most notably Colin Powell, Joe Biden, John Edwards, John Kerry, Condoleezza Rice, Robert Gates). After Rice and Gates and other EU officials attended a groups meeting, a sanction and threat against Iran was proposed. Robert Gibbs, when asked, reported that in 2008 Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton attended a ‘private meeting’ in Northern Virginia, yet, on that same day, a Bildergroup meeting was being held in Chantilly with Henry Kissinger and David Rockefeller attending.

The group currently supports the creation of a North American Union (based on one currency and economic system). The groups chairman Étienne Davignon has previously stated that the group helped create the Euro in the 1990′s. The group is currently pushing forward to implement the Lisbon Treaty which will basically make the EU a federalized Nation.
Does any of this raise a red flag to any one? Especially when Perry or any other current candidate or high official attends one these meetings or adheres to their agenda? I’m sure these are legit concerns, when worried about the sovereignty and existence of the US.

Anyhow, Ron Paul won’t be the Republican nominee because: (1) too old (2) has said that Iran should have nukes if they want them, because everyone else around them has them (3) he doesn’t the charisma necessary to win a National election.
Rick Perry has the charisma and has won three elections in Texas. Yes, he was a Democrat at one time, but has seen the error of his ways. He grew up and became a Republican. Since there are in reality only two main political parties, the Republicans have to have a nominee that will kick the effeminate Obama off his feet. (Does anyone consider Obama to be “manly”?) I know that I don’t. The Independents might like an Administration that’s free of pedophile supporting lifestyles.

In June, the meeting of the Bilderberg group named Texas Governor Rick Perry to be their candidate.

He will abandon the platform when he receives the nomination, and once again, Americans are left with no real choice. He is no conservative, don’t be fooled by his peacocking.

Perry’s latest veto was of a plan to add a number of requirements to the Texas eminent-domain procedures, under which governments can grab and use private property.

Meanwhile, Perry’s dismal record on illegal immigration demonstrates his belief in open borders and the “free flow of goods, services and people.” Why is FOX not reporting Perry’s stance on illegal immigration?

2) Through real grassroots efforts elect Representatives that believe in American principles and values based on our heritage and constitutional institutions.
3) Repeal obamacare and vote out every member in congress that voted for Obama’s debt ceiling bill.
4) Keep marriage out of the Government’s business and within the authority of the Church and Family. Our American Common Law has already settled that marriage is between one man and one women. End entitlement programs. Educate Citizens to understand that illegal aliens and their babies are actually subject to a foreign jurisdiction (ergo, subject to deportation) and not our responsibility.
5) End Unions that force membership and end Government funded and ran Unions. Get us out of the UN, IMF, World Bank, Federal Reserve System, and NAFTA.
6) Elect Ron Paul in 2012!
7) Pray to God that a bunch of ignorant, lazy, few men and their hard headed, stubborn and arrogant selves do not ruin and destroy our chances to RESTORE AMERICA NOW!
8) End the IRS and US INCOME TAX, and let the people keep all the fruit of their labor, so the Government can stop using it for their global and foreign interests.

It worked then, and they sure as heck will try it again. They’re trying to cover themselves on all fronts (Republican Party and Democrat Party). They, the media and global elitists, want to keep Obama in place or have anyone (which they will help elect) in place that they can manipulate or influence to advance their global agenda. And to me, it seems like Perry is trying to be bought by the elite.

And I do believe there are those pre-ordained by a new world order, and they may not even know it yet.

All the tea party people I talk to support Ron Paul. the Tea Party is way smarter than this. This creep is being promoted by the media, Builderburg and god knows who else in this network and fox. People, you better wake up and get sharp, your being told what to think. You better open your eyes, cause your butt is about to be invaded once again.

You all have been through a lot over this kind of crap like Perry and Bachmann ….Don’t be stupid and end up once again being told what you think and who you want. This guy is crap and you all know it. Just because he is not Obama does not mean he is what we need to restore our country.

Posted on August 26, 2011 at 10:16pmTexas’ success is real, nothing mythical about that, but it has nothing to do with Perry. Perry is corrupt as the day is long. He is owned by special interests. He will do or say anything. Just look at his record.
His baby was the Trans-Texas corridor. He wanted to eminent domain over a million acres of private property to build a massive toll-road that TX taypayers would fund, but then would be handed over to a Spanish contractor to build and then operate/maintain after the fact. Every study showed the highway would do nothing but hurt our economy. We didn’t need the road, it would hurt small downs, forcing people to drive for miles to find bridges to get across this 1/4-mile wide behemoth toll road. It would provide high-speed transport connecting Mexico to the northern states, driving business we currently get to them. Nobody was in favor of this highway. Perry refused to put it to a popular vote. For years and years he pushed this, only recently backing off.

Posted on August 26, 2011 at 10:20pmPerry has continuously vetoed legislation that would have deregulated healthcare in TX and allowed for more competition. Right now the way our system is designed, doctors band together in a regional lobby and have absolute control over local healthcare markets. You can think of it like a union, but encompassing an entire geographic region. What is a patient going to do, drive to a different hospital or doctor a hundreds of miles away? It’s not a free market economy. These doctor lobby’s seek to maintain provider shortages so as to raise demand and income for themselves. They will not allow competition. They also push the burden of government-imposed losses onto private providers like hospitals. State and federal government requires by-law that hospitals provide certain services but then when patients don’t pay they do no reimburse for these losses. End result, hospitals raise prices on everybody else. The healthcare system is rather corrupt. Repeated legislation has gone to Perry’s desk that would greatly serve to ease these problems by making the market more free and more competitive, busting up the power of these doctor lobbys. Perry always vetos.
Perry has handed out countless billions to his contributors in the form of state contracts, many of them for jobs that weren’t necessary to begin with. He has helped big companies maintain unfair competitive edges over new smaller companies.

Posted on August 26, 2011 at 10:11pmPerry can win. Bachmann, though a good conservative, is a congressman and history tells us that it is very hard for a senator to become president even though Obama did, the last was JFK. The last congressman to become president was I think James Garfield. So apparently coming from a position of executive experience like a governor is more than helpful!

…The ruling elite might continue to push Obama through to the DNC convention next summer, but much will depend on what happens next month in Hawaii. One thing that’s becoming clear is the growing anger towards Obama by his base support making him a risky proposition for the 2012 nomination. Could the puppet masters engineer an exit for Obama before it’s too late to run another candidate? In a heart beat. It won’t be Hillary Clinton due to health reasons. She has already publicly stated she will not run for public office again, but will return to private advocacy work. Of course, that’s where the money is for globlal elites like the Clintons… Enter Governor Rick Perry of Texas…
