    Tags: Rick Perry, 2012 Presidential Race, He's done...stick a fork in him, Giving ammunition to the MSM. (all tags)

    Catching up on some odds and ends while I'm back in town, I didn't give this story very much credibility after I was watching what I DVR'd this weekend.

    Not that I doubted who made the claim (Cain on Fox), but that the source that he got it from was at all credible.

    In the end, it turns out that wasn't the case.

    {Continued below the fold}

    It what will ultimately be his "I was brainwashed" moment, the Perry campaign spent the day in crisis mode attempting to spin and deflect the fallout that a hunting camp Perry leased with his father, had a...um, even though I hear the term just about every day and have no compunctions about posting it here, I'm not 100% sure that it will fall under the family-friendly nature of this site.

    Instead of waiting for a ruling from Jason, I'll just say that it's stated in the third paragraph of the WaPo article here.

    I'll also add that even though I hear it about every day, not everyone who is around me feels that it is in any way appropriate, especially given whose using it and who it's directed towards.

    If the blue-bloods want to do what's best for the party, they should strongly encourage Perry to quit this week.

    I already wasn't voting for him: tuition for illegals and mandatory medical treatment! No thank you! I'm looking at Cain, Newt and R Paul.

    There's a lot to like about each and some not to like about each.

    I hope the GOP reads this: (none / 0) (#2)

    There's only two people I will not be voting for: Obama and someone the GOP forces onto us. I think many, many will do the same. So, they'd better get behind someone the people want. Also, they should reach out to the candidates to eliminate some of the problems we've had in times past. The last run up for the governorship could have been a lot different if a few had compromised for the sake of MI.

    Yes, this is a threat I'll make good on: I will vote 3rd party or write somebody in if the GOP doesn't get this right!

    Mr. Payne has his head so far up Perry's ass that the Texan governor would need a glass bellybutton for Henry to see the daylight of the outside world.

    What's more, the story is itself bigoted - an attempt by an east coast establishment paper to caricature southerners as racists (check the Post's library - I bet they have a copy of Huckleberry Finn with the N-word throughout. Is the Post racist? And how about their repeated use of the term "Redskins" as Washington football's mascot?).

    ...

    Still, this heinous Democratic tactic is getting ample help from the Stupid Party.

    "For him to leave (the N-word) there as long as he did before I hear that they finally painted over it is just plain insensitive to a lot of black people in this country," GOP candidate and black man Herman Cain told Fox News.

    Well, Mr. Cain, and we "hear " all you did at Godfather's was slash jobs.

    So, Conservatives are the Stupid Party, Mr. Payne?

    a fan of Perry for President but the press is really starting to irritate me when it come to reporting the facts.  

    http://bigjournalism.com/aakbar/2011/10/03/ali-a-akbar-rick-perry-is-not-a-racist/

    Just think if Scott Pelley and the rest of the press had done their homework on the Obama/Rezko relationship and investigated PBO's lack of experience in ANYTHING!!??!!  

    I wouldn't get too excited (none / 0) (#8)

    This is a great way to break apart conservatives.

    Perry is not my current pick, and Herman Cain is on top of those I support.  

    BUT..

    Its a whole lot of hullaballoo about very little.

    Think "Media driven." My two cents? Malkin, while not a Perry supporter at all, offers enough to pretty much be my opinion.  She nails it on reaping that which you sow.

    Herman Cain (none / 0) (#10)

    Herman Cain showed his true colors here and I will NOT be voting for him as a result of it. This is obviously a smear job by the left and he's just piggybacking on it. It's the dumbest story ever and the reaction to it is equally dumb. Perry drives by some offensive rock 20 years ago and is supposed to call the Federal Civil Rights commission? Are you kidding me!?

    Cain came off as a doofus before and this just proves it. Not that I was going to vote for Perry in the first place, but why are we even debating this??
