... Perry or his father did at some point paint over the name, even if they did a bad job of it, which they should get some credit for. I think a real racist would have never covered over the name until he considered running for national office and would be defending the name in much the same way bigots defend the "rebel" flag.

In short I simply don't see much here indicative of anything more than a place with an unfortunate name associated with a candidate. I'd pay more attention to his cavalier attitude toward capital punishment and the unraveling of his claims about the Texas economy.

Thanks DK.

Perhaps you aren't totally bad.

Leased.. owned... honestly, the land was under his control during the years he was on the paperwork. Popeye made it sound like he was a guest at some hunting resort.

As far as the time line... depending on who is telling the truth... has yet to be determined.

Tazzy, if it's "leased" he didn't own it. Are you saying that (he) should be responsible for something that someone else did?

Why don't people attack Perry because he is scientifically illiterate?

Why don't they attack him on the issues?

Why don't they attack him because he has sold his soul to the religious right?

What was he supposed to do with the rock? Drill a hole in it, blow it up with nitro, sandblast and bury all the pieces?

I put Perry just above Bachman and below Palin on the dumbass scale but seriously, tempest, meet teapot.

I think the bigger issue is missed here.

A five foot by three foot rock was labled. Then painted over, but the original working "bled" through. You want to cover something, you paint it the same color, not white wash it.

The rock was then "turned over".... begs the question... if thats true, who turned that size of a rock back? Its a huge rock.

He didnt write it, his family didnt write it. No one is disputing that fact.

A case of insensitivity.... yep.

A case of lying... seems like it.

Lying about something... IF he is lying.... that truly would not have bit anyone in the ass.. had the truth simply been told.

Hell, I would have accepted.... "yeah, we painted it white and thought it was covered up. Since no one used that end, I didnt check back."

If you will life... IF he is lying about this... about something so trivial... what will you do when the big stuff hits.

I still say attack him on the big stuff. Like a brain. I also said "weathered" not emerged. That means it wore off. In hind sight, yeah maybe he would paint it a different color or buy expensive paint but that was over 25 years ago.

If I bought a camp with something offensive painted on it, I'd probably take a bucket of white "Kilz" up and paint over it and forget about it. 25 years later and it weathers because I bought cheap paint, am I now a racist?

Attacking Perry for this is about as petty as attacking Obama for having someone carry his umbrella or putting his feet on the desk. PETTY crap when there are REAL issues to worry about

As for 3' by 5' rock, if it's no more than 6" thick, piece of cake to flip over even at My advanced age.

You will notice, Hill, there was no attacks here. Just a discussion of the issue. No one accused.

Be thankful it was presented this way. If someone else had, you can imagine how the thread would go.

Two points. I never said he was a racist.

And the rock was supposedly turned over. IF it had been, no one would have seen it.

BTW, did anyone see he is okay with sending troops to Mexico to "kill the cartels" ? (Perry not Firm)

I hadn't seen that, but I'd have to disagree. The only way we should send troops into Mexico is to annex the whole fucking country.

Well hell, if we did that, we'd have most of Central America and South America up in arms, running to the UN, decrying US imperialism while their populations kept sneaking across what was the former Mexican border.

wow... just... wow.

Lets go to war with Mexico.

It would probably end up better for us - and them - in the long run, rather than fighting around the world in the Middle East.
