Rick Perry sues Virginia elections board to get on the primary ballot that he failed to qualify for
Rick Perry is fighting his disqualification from the Virginia primary ballot (not word is lunar Newt is yet.) Rick Perry’s complaint was filed and posted online at Rick Perry’s own site for those who want to read it. But there’s one thing you might find a bit odd that Hotair caught in the complaint. In paragraph 18 of the complaint Perry says Perry he submitted “over 6,000 petition signatures from qualified Virginia voters.” Problem is, 11,900 total signatures are required to qualify for Virginia’s ballot.

Lunar colony Newt Gingrich wouldn’t vote for Ron Paul if he won the GOP nomination
When Newt Gingrich was in his “nice mode” he said during debates that “anyone on this stage would be a far better president than Obama.” I guess now that the real Newt is showing himself, he’s flip-flopped again. While I am hardly a fan of Ron Paul, I would still hold my nose and vote for him IF he was the GOP nominee to run against the Marxist Obama. Gingrich appeared on CNN with liberal hack Wolf Blizter and claimed thT not only would he not vote for Ron Paul if he was the GOP nominee, but that Paul’s views are totally outside the mainstream of virtually every decent American. Aside from Ron Paul’s foreign policy, his anti-semitism, and “reported” racism in newsletters, Ron Paul’s views (fiscally) are far more mainstream than Gingrich’s.

Oops. Rick Perry disqualified from Virginia primary ballot
Here’s yet another oops moment for Rick Perry. This one though may prove to be more costly to his chances at being the GOP nominee than any of the previous. According to the Republican Party Of Virginia’s Twitter feed, Rick Perry did not submit the required 10,000 signatures needed to qualify for the Virginia primary, and will be left off the ballot. Perry now joins Michelle Bachmann, Jon Huntsman and Rick Santorum, as those who failed to qualify for the Super Tuesday Virginia Primary. Of course, it’s not like Bachmann, Santorum or Huntsman matter, after January they will probably have dropped out anyway.
Rasmussen Iowa GOP poll: Romney 25% Paul 20% Gingrich 17%
Gingrich’s plunge continues. Earlier this week PPP had a poll showing Ron Paul ahead of Mitt Romney with Gingrich in third place. This poll seems to confirm Gingrich’s epic tumble in Iowa, expect it has Mittens Romney ahead of Ron Paul by five points. The new Rasmussen Reports poll of Iowa caucus participants shows Romney with 25% and Ron Paul at 20%. Gingrich has fallen all the way down to 17%. Other interesting results of this poll show Rick Perry AND Rick Santorum in double digits.
Newt Gingrich plummets in Iowa – now third behind Ron Paul and Mitt Romney in latest PPP poll
Looks like those truthful Ron Paul ads about Newt Gingrich in Iowa are paying off. Of course, this is left wing biased PPP polling group which is used by Daily Kos, so I can’t really get overly excited about these results until I see other polls showing similar numbers. PPP says Newt Gingrich’s campaign is rapidly imploding. Ron Paul is now the leader in Iowa with 23% of the vote to Mittens Romney at 20%. Gingrich has dropped like a rock in Iowa. After hitting a peak of 27% of the vote a few weeks ago in the same poll, he’s dropped 13 points in a very short time. 10% each for Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann, and Rick Perry. Here’s where the rest of the poll doesn’t make any sense. Phony Jon Huntsman is at 4%? In a state he decided to stop campaigning in and skip debates? I don’t think so. Oh, and they also put Gary Johnson at 25. Gary FRICKEN Johnson who might be lucky to pull 1% in his home state of New Mexico. Again, makes no sense.
Rick Perry “retires” early only to collect tax payer funded pension in Texas
By “retiring early,” Rick Perry isn’t stepping down as Governor of Texas, or dropping out of the GOP race. Instead, according to Hot Air, Perry “retiring” simply means he will be allowed to collect nearly $6,500 after taxes per month, in addition to his annual salary of $150,000. Perry’s yearly annual tax payer funded salary will go from $150,000 to about $240,000. Regardless if you are a Perry supporter or not, this isn’t exactly a smart move during a GOP primary process. (Thank god he didn’t get the nominee and pull this stunt next year.)
Fox News GOP Iowa Debate – Rick Perry is the new Tim Tebow or something
Rick Perry had his second decent debate in a row. But his phoniness like calling himself the “Tim Tebow” of the Iowa Caucuses was lame. Yea, whatever Ricardo. Jon Huntsman is also the biggest phony in these GOP debates and tonight was more of the same. But the biggest loser of this debate wasn’t any GOP candidate. It was the Fox News Sunday hack Chris Wallace. Again, they decided to use the flake as a questioner of the candidates. Wallace was his usual condescending self. As far as the winners of this debate, I think Michele Bachmann did very well. She totally owned Newt Gingrich. Rick Santorum did well too far the limited amount of time he was given to answer questions. Ron Paul got the only booing of the night when he made excuses for Iran getting nukes and blaming America for the Islamic Extremists attacking us. Mitt Romney for once answered some questions on his flip flops.
Ron Paul within one point of Gingrich in Iowa?
If i see other polls from Iowa showing the same results, I’d be tempted to believe these results. But alas it’s left wing PPP. This is the polling outfit used by Daily Ko(s)ok. But if this poll is accurate, it’s significant. According to the poll, Ron Paul now trails Newt Gingrich in Iowa by just 1 point. The poll finds Gingrich at 22% of the GOP vote and Ron Paul at 21%. Last week, Gingrich lead by 9 points. RINO Romney sits in third place at 16%. Michele Bachmann at 11%, Rick Perry at 9%, Rick Santorum at 8% round out the rest. Oh, and somehow Jon Huntsman is at 5%. No other poll has Huntsman anywhere near this high in Iowa. It’s so bad there for Huntsman that he’s skipped the recent debates in that state.
Donald Trump’s publicity stunt fails – announces he will not be moderator of the Newsmax debate
Hey Donald Trump, you’re fired! With only two candidates agreeing to appear at a Newsmax debate that Trump was supposed to moderate, the media whore Donald Trump has finally pulled out as moderator in another yet another embarrassing publicity stunt that went wrong. Fox Nation posted Trump’s statement of his withdrawal:
Rick Santorum destroys CNN hack Candy Crowley on Obama’s appeasement to Muslims
Meet Candy Crowley, the latest CNN hack the become a spokes”person” for Obama. Fareed Zarkaria has already admitted he is an adviser to Obama on Muslim affairs. Candy Crowley while not admitting anything directly, basically showed her cards in an snotty, arrogant, rude interview with Rick Santorum, defending Obama on every point that Santorum made. Newsbusters posted the video and transcript of the exchange in which Rick Santorum calm destroying the pitiful hack Candy Crowley.
Dreadful new Rick Perry ad whines about gays serving in the military
I’m sorry, but it’s candidates and ads like these that turn people into Obama voters. The primary concerns in this country are jobs, the national debt, class warfare and taxes. Not gays serving in the military, or other social conservative issues like prayer in school. Rick Perry’s flat tax scheme totally bombed, so now he’s looking for anything he can to try and climb the polls. I doubt the following ad he just released is going to do it.

Oops. Rick Perry calls conservative blog Hot Air “Hot Gas” – says $600 billion in defense cuts could lead to another Pearl Harbor
Rick Perry is a funny guy. Kind of goofy too. His calling conservative blog Hot Air “Hot Gas” was yet another oops moment for the Texas Governor. I actually just snickered when I heard it. But then Rick Perry goes on to say dumb stuff again like claiming the $600 billion in automatic defense cuts could lead to another Pearl Harbor. For whatever reason Perry had a sit down interview with far left hack Wolf Blitzer. Perry also made an odd remark. With Gingrich so far out in front in GOP polls, Perry claimed it’s “Newt’s time in the barrel.” Whatever that means.

Newt Gingrich: Life begins at implantation, not conception
Newt Gingrich may have ticked off some pro-life people with them one. It seems pretty apparent that Gingrich is now trying to go down that “centrist” road that Romney has been playing for five years. — Newt Gingrich sat down with ABC News hack Jake Tapper and claimed life begins at implantation rather than conception.
Oops. Rick Perry thinks the legal voting age is 21 years old instead of 18
If Rick Perry’s fumbles and brain fart at debates weren’t bad enough, he doesn’t even seem to know that the legal voting age in the country is 18 instead of 21. I guess he can claim this was just another brain fart or something. Perry may be a good guy, but as far as I’m concerned, he just isn’t ready for prime time. Of course, this and his brain fart during the debate isn’t any worse than thinking America has 57 states.

Ron Paul just 1 point behind Herman in Iowa according to latest Bloomberg poll
There always seems to be an unexpected winner of the Iowa caucus. In 2008 it was Mike Huckabee for the Republicans and then little known Chicago Marxist Barack Obama for the Democrats. Now, according to the Daily Caller, Ron Paul just one one point off the lead in Iowa, behind Herman Cain. There are actually four candidates bunched up together. Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich earned 20 percent, 19 percent, 18 percent, and 17 percent, respectively, in the Bloomberg poll released today.
Rick Perry – Any Congressman or Senator that uses their insider knowledge to profit in the stock market ought to be sent to jail. Period.
Good thing Rick Perry remembered to release a video on the emerging insider trading scandal by Congress critters and Senators. Last night Peter Schweizer revealed in his new book entitled Throw Them All Out that Nancy Pelosi bought anywhere from $1 million to $5 million of Visa stock while holding up serious credit card reform for two years as Speaker of the House. Pelosi’s watched her investment skyrocket 203% by holding up credit card reform! The scandal is not limited to Nancy Pelosi and Democrats though. Republicans such as Alabama Rep. Spencer Bachus is also named in the book, and was a big part of the 60 minutes report. So too was Weeper Boehner and former New Hampshire Senator Judd Gregg. Today Perry remembered to release a campaign video stating that any Congressman or Senator that uses their insider knowledge to profit in the stock market ought to be sent to jail, period! And Perry says Congress should pass a law that says so right now. Now ifs, ands or buts.

Ron Paul calls CBS disgraceful – only gets 90 seconds to speak in televised first hour
If you are a regular reader of this site, you know my stance on Ron Paul. Love his fiscal conservatism side,and dislike his forgien policy. I wouldn’t bash him for what he said during the pathetic CBS / National Journal foreign policy debate, because he said exactly what I expected him to say. Of course, Paul didn’t get to say much, as he only got 90 seconds (a minute and a half) to speak during the first televised hour of the CBS debate, before they cut off and went to some stupid NCIS. Useless tools like Jon Huntsman and Rick Santorum got more time to speak than Ron Paul. Sorry, even though I don’t agree with Paul’s foreign policy, I’m going to agree with him here. CBS is a disgrace.
Rick Perry reads Top 10 list on Late Show with David Letterman
I’m not a fan of Rick Perry. But I like the fact he can take his gaffe in good humor and poke fun at himself over it. The media as usual has blown it way out of proportion. That it self makes Perry brain fart “oops” moment even less significant. Fact of the matter is, it wasn’t Perry’s “brain fart” that killed his campaign chances to win the GOP nomination. It was just fodder for the lame stream media and left wing hacks. It was his claim that you are “heartless” unless you support tax payer money to pay for college of illegals. Check out the following video of Perry reading the “Top 10 Rick Perry excuses.”

Figures! Rick Perry is for granting work visas to illegal immigrants
Because, if you aren’t for granting work visas for illegals, then you are just heartless. Right Rick Perry? In an interview with CNN, posted over at Univision Perry said he is against deporting all people in the country without documentation and said that a system should be put in place for them to work here legally. Rick Perry also said that professed his support for visas for illegals:
Rick Perry interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News
I guess Fox News got off the Mitt Romney bandwagon for one night. Hard to tell the difference in the hair between Rick Perry and Sean Hannity, but the two sat down for an interview tonight. The interview touched on issues such as Perry’s 20% flat tax proposal, border security, Iran, and very briefly Herman Cain. The interview is divided into three parts. Rick Perry thinks that Herman Cain is a “likeable fellow.”
