Your afternoon reading:
- "Less than two weeks before Iowa Republicans make their crucial caucus choices on the night of Jan. 3, George H.W. Bush offered words of support, if not an official endorsement, to an old friend, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. 'I think Romney is the best choice for us,' former President Bush told the Houston Chronicle this week.

reminds me of How do you know when GWB is lying: lips moving...why should anyone care who he endorses? Warmonger's?

The unkindest cut of all: The Shrub's judgment that Gov. Perry "isn't going anywhere." The judgment of one small man about another even smaller man.

I never much cared for George Bush Sr., and I care even less about him now.
George Bush Sr. lost in 1992. Why should Republicans listen to HIM?

President Bush, The Grown Up, is the last great statesman that occupied the Oval Office since the great President Reagan. Clinton, Bush-the-Younger and Obama don't compare...where it matters.

Media is everything..if everyone thinks Romney is the "favorite" and "winning" like the RNC wants, they make him win. That's how it works..the real truth is most people are more moderate in America. It's the voter vs. the media..

I am with RON PAUL. He is the only one that does not steal from the people to pad his personal bank account and investments, lie, and change his mind to go with what he thinks is popular at the moment like of rest do from one day to the next. Best of all, he is against Illegal Aliens becoming legal by sneaking over the border (or under it) and not being caught, against free babies, free food, SNAP, WIC, free, free, free, and it is NEVER enough for them. I am tired of the ILLEGAL ALIENS being treated better than our tax paying citizens and I am tired of supporting them! Become an American taxpaying citizen and start giving back instead of taking; then I say welcome! Until that time, I do not want to pay a nickel toward Illegal Aliens receiving free school & meals. If the land of milk, and honey is not good enough for you, then go home and stop trashing up America.

Maybe if you supported Perry he would be surging in the polls, Mr. Bush - HELLO?

Remember a vote for a democrat is a vote for Obama and illegal aliens , homosexuals and terrorist.
