Heisenberg Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 still doesn't have any grades or papers out....till then I can go with he is highly educated with a dad that is a alumni and a member of a group subject to help from affirmative action.one of his fellow professors is less than complimentary of his abilities....should I believe him because of his position? Who is that? Honest question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsec2010 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Eventhough Obama nor Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bachman, Cain, etc haven't relased theirs, Harvard has confirmed that he graduated Magna Cum Laude (Top 10 percent of his class) when he graduated. Something Rick Perry and the rest of the GOP can't come close to topping. Like I said. Affirmative Action and unqualified. The better man deserves the job right?

twa Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 The better man deserves the job right? Certainly, but grades nor honors make the better man to me....if it did we could simply do away with those pesky elections Interesting concept though...does my kids scoring in the top 2% academically make them the better person than the other 98%? What does my high IQ score entitle me to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckus Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 "Evolution. It is a theory. It's got some holes" :ols: When asked why he thought social security was "unconstitutional" he responded, "I have a full mouth." :ols: He seemed to have a rough day on the trail today. Also, a crazy Ron Paul supporter is putting ads in Austin mags asking "have you had sex with Perry?" good old Ron Paul folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does my high IQ score entitle me to? That goes against every argument those on the right have presented. Especially when it come to SAT scores and college admissions, and overall cognitive abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckus Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 A serious question for small government conservatives - What is your stance on RIck Perry's executive order in 2007 that attempted (but failed) to require young girls to have an HPV vaccination called GARDASIL. He defended this decision for 4 years. Until 48 hours after entering the Presidential race. Then he said - "I didn't do my research well enough." Umm, you attempted to make the government force young women to take an HPV vaccination and you didn't research it well enough . . . . and you didn't even admit that for 4 years. Fascinating enough, in 2007 his ex-chief of staff Mike Toomey just happpppened to be the lobbyist for Merck which just also happens to be the pharmaceutical company that creates GARDASIL. And even more amazing, that company just happppppenend to give Rick Perry's campaign contributions. I don't have a problem with his taking credit for Texas' success. Whether the situation there is actually good or not might be in question, but he's at the helm and deserves the credit. Just as Clinton deserves credit for the post Bush I boom in the 90s.My beef is, as usual, with his religious beliefs. I don't want anyone in office who puts faith in their God above the US Constitution. At 1:14 he says that the only thing he loves more than this country is Christ. Which is perfectly fine, and his prerogative as an individual. But as the leader of this country, I don't think its appropriate What is inappropriate is that the event was nothing more than a political rally. The American Family Association (a hate group who also happened to be a sponsor of the event :mad:) emailed everyone who registered for The Response yesterday asking people to join a voter mobilization organization - their goal is get 5 million new Christian voters. The entire purpose was to data mine - then move that data into voter mobilization. It had absolutely nothing to do with a day of prayer. It was BS, as everyone in Texas who was already paying attention knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
