Perry tries to scare americans: “A big black cloud” hangs over the country"

Just minutes earlier, while delivering remarks at the Des Moines Register Soapbox here, Perry focused his fire on President Obama, who will be in a different part of the state later Monday.

“He says he’s on a listening tour,” Perry said, “so I’m going to talk to him.” … Perry warned that a “big black cloud” hangs over the country.

“I think you want a president who is passionate about America — that’s in love with America.”

Well, I think Perry could do a WONDERFUL job of that!

K&R

Not to mention the one that hangs over him wherever he may be. Remember that guy in L'il Abner, the one with the black cloud that always hovered above his head? Joe Ixblix or something like that? Maybe that should be Perry's "nickname"--The Joe Ixblix of the 2012 Campaign.

Just a thought...

Btfsplk, according to Wikipedia.

As much as I detest Rick Perry's governorship, I think that he's just one (howbeit big) cloud in a sky full of Texas Republican strato-cumulus ruination. He wouldn't have gotten away with it if he didn't have PLENTY of help from the Republican-controlled state legislature, the knee-jerk Texas Republican voters and the politically-asleep lunkheads who don't bother to vote.

Always had a problem pronouncing his name so just went for Ixblix. And I couldn't agree more about the Texas republicans, voters, non-voters, legislators, on and on. I absolutely abhor the ugly e-mails I receive from a Texas cousin, but she just won't quit sending them. It's pointless to counter her rhetoric with the truth...so I pretty much ignore her now. So far she hasn't taken me off her Christmas card list!

And the sooner it gets its ass back to Texas the better.

:wtf:

as I can remember.

And bad luck as well.

in another thread.

the executive branch. What a bunch of corny hogwash.

more minimum wage workers than any state,the state is in a severe drought,and he wants to succeeded from the union......
don`t let the door hit you in your ass perry.

the scary thing about him is the odds are he`ll be nominated.

he wants to secede from it.

:)

Bwahahahahahaha

It's everywhere, and difficult to eradicate. The last thing we need is you dispensing a fresh dose across Uhmurika.

:puke:

If he's not thumping a bible, he's waving his patriotism with Nationalistic fervor.

How in the hell can a group of people like this enjoy such prominence?

I hope it stays there.

breathe and children to live without asthma attacks. The sooner the COPD patients die off, the better for him.

Dumbya stripped as manny of those regs as he could and asthma rates skyrocketed. Perry is simply continuing the corporate health policy.

what he might want to talk about are some sane solutions to this country's many, many problems.

People are hurting financially, mentally, physically and not many are going to have the patience to listen to this kind of jackassery when their mortgage's about to be foreclosed on, they just got a pink slip, are on the last weeks of unemployment, fridge is empty and the lights are about to be turned off.

Perry fail and I hope it's one of a million.

First of all - this is some crappy language usage. It should be "who is in love with America"

Secondly, what the heck is he trying to say here - "big black cloud" WTF?

And once again, the tired, worn out old chestnut that somehow Democrats don't love America as much as Republicans do. This is divisive bull shit and Perry should be called on it by the media. Not that it will happen. How exactly do you measure someone's "love for America" Mr. Perry? Please explain.

Mainstream German news is calling Perry this in their headlines. Basically "the radical Bush copy".

Texans have pointed out in various online fora that Perry = Bush with a mean streak...

...he has his cronies in other states approach union shops and convince them to relocate/reopen as non union. In Erie PA we once had a thriving manufacturing base, till Chimpy got in. The head of our local "manufacturing association" went to Texas for a while, and when he returned, it was like a vaccum was sucking the jobs out of Erie. This "manufacturing association" is actually a right wing anti union group, headed by Ralph Pontillo, who sponsored Chimpys appearance here in Erie after he left office. Expect no help from DINO Mayor Joe Sinnot. Once a year, Pontillo and Mayor Sinnot cosponsor "Roar on the Shore", an event when all the republican gun loving boogereaters converge on the city, behave like aholes, and don't get bothered by the city cops. Soon a generation long democratic stronghold will be redistricted courtesy of Mike Kelly, put at the mercy of vast rural areas where methlabs are the only manufacturing going on. Sarah Palin wasn't kidding when she put Erie in her "crosshairs".

fails.

It was selective editing by NBC and Ed Shultz...

Schultz regrets Perry remark about 'big black cloud'

Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Monday says he sees a “big black cloud that hangs over America” – a remark that MSNBC host Ed Schultz quickly interpreted as being about President Barack Obama, which in turn prompted charges of race-baiting and deceptive editing by conservative blogs.

On Tuesday, Schultz addressed the criticism created by his incomplete quoting of Perry’s remarks in Iowa and said he regrets the error, but maintained that other controversial remarks this week by the Texas governor reveal his true nature.

“We did not present the full context of those statements and we should have,” Schultz said, then replaying the full Perry quote that made it clear the “big black cloud” Perry was referring to is the U.S. debt, and not President Obama, as Schultz maintained Monday. “No doubt about it, it was a mistake and we regret the error … we should not have included it in our coverage.”

seriously?
His audience does, whether they realize it or not.

You must be a very honest and forthright person - and don't see how these villains play their prey for the fools that they are.

What do you see?

Cue the black helicopters.
Wait!
I mean, er, blue ones.

Just read on Yahoo news that Perry's license plates could be an issue.
Could be, as in it might be, if the media asked him about it.
They won't.

We need to see him eating a corndo, or he will never be famous.

has fought the EPA at every turn. You can hardly walk outside in the summer any more. It hurts to breathe the air. People are dying from it.

I get headaches when I read their stuff.

I saw this thread. Looks like a racist Freudian slip to me. Then again, he might have wanted to say it. I think we're going to hear a lot of racist code from this guy.

Perry is fiscally ruining his own state.
He's with that fringe crowd that wants Texas to secede.
Wages in Texas are below the national average.
He loves to claim that he hasn't raised taxes. He's a liar - he has.

Why the hell then is there a need to go hysterical and make shit up? You really have to chop up his statement, out of context, to get to that point.

He clearly was talking about the debt. It wasn't a slip. It wasn't a secret message to fellow haters of black people.

No need to lie - the truth exposes Perry as an awful candidate, perhaps the worst among the worst from the other side.
He'll sink on his own.
No need to lie.

Uh huh.

It makes us look silly. If you listen to the comment, he talks about the 'big black cloud...the debt'... Was Bob Dylan singing about racism when he talks about 'that cold black cloud is coming down' in Knocking on Heaven's Door? Was JRR Tolkien being alliteratively racist in describing the 'black clouds over Mordor'? Why bother looking for racism where it doesn't exist -- AND will serve to easily ridicule us and drive away voters who might have otherwise listened to us -- when there is so much REAL racism (Hi, License Plates!) to look at? What POSSIBLE good is there in 'pointing out' this drivel that you have to actually be LOOKING for to notice...in the first place!?

Governor goodhair is an idiot.
