Today's the debate! OFFICIAL 9/7 debate thread!

Why vote for Rick Perry who is trying to act like Ron Paul-lite, when you can actually get the man who is truly against the status quo, will protect your liberty, and won't just pay the Constitution lip-service?
 
Bachmann, the winner of the Iowa Straw Poll, should be given more time.

I know many of us hate her, but it's hypocritical to complain about Dr Paul's lack of proportionate coverage while laughing at and celebrating Rep. Bachmann's disenfranchisement.

That kind of asshat behavior makes it harder to win over her supporters and sympathizers.

I'm afraid we're not making a good impression tonight. From Twitter...

I'm sorry, Ron Paul just sounds like a crazy old man.

Just a reminder: "I want to totally disassociate myself from the Reagan Administration." - Ron Paul (May 10, 1988) #ReaganDebate

ron paul would never, EVER force your teenage daughter to do anything, except have a baby if she is pregnant

Dr. Ron Paul: Vaccinations against #cancer is "not good medicine"

Ron Paul has been told to smile, quit being cranky. It's not working. #ReaganDebate

If your home floods, Ron Paul will send you a pack of straws and a Ziplock bag.... LOL #GOPDebate

Perry’s Real Record on Illegal Immigration
True Pioneer of the Dream Act

“Perry has been criticized by some fellow conservatives as being too lenient on undocumented immigration issues.” Huffington Post

In June 2011, Perry signed a bill to give illegal immigrants in-state tuition.
“In 2001, Perry signed into law the first state “DREAM Act,” which allows children of illegal immigrants to pay in-state tuition at state universities…” Union Leader

In 2007, Perry said he would oppose efforts to repeal the law.
“Gov. Rick Perry said Thursday he will oppose efforts to repeal a law, which he signed six years ago, giving tuition breaks to illegal immigrants attending state universities.” Houston Chronicle

During The Fall Semester Of 2009, Over 12,000 Students Took Advantage Of The Law.
“During the fall semester, 12,138 students - about 1 percent of all Texas college students - benefited from the state law granting in-state tuition, according to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. Most of the immigrants among those students are illegal, and some others are not legal permanent residents or U.S. citizens.” Dallas Morning News

Recipients Collected Roughly $33 Million In Financial Aid Between 2004 And 2008:
“Texas awarded about $33.6 million in state and institutional financial aid to those students between fall 2004 and summer 2008.” Dallas Morning News

...While Texas Sustains Huge Deficits:
“House legislators were forced to rely on spending cuts to close the shortfall -- estimated at between $15 billion and $27 billion…” “Some 60,000 students would lose financial aid for college.CNN

Nancy Pelosi and Rick Perry are quite the pair:
