    You should. Half the Republican contenders for the repblican nomination are or have been his employees and it has now been revealed that his publishing empire is nothing more than a criminal enterprise.

    I seriously doubt that.

        This needs to stay on topic, because what you are saying is silly. The rouge employees who committed the crimes work for an organization that makes up 1% of his 'empire'. The New York Times routinely uses information illegally obtained. You can reference John and Alice Martin's illegal taping of Newt Gingrich which was given to Democrat leaders of the House and various news media outlets. Also, was Les Moonves drug before a congressional committee after the whole fake National Guard documents scandal? CBS has been known for corruption since they staged for their 60 Minutes show a sadle tank explosion (which I remember distinctly).

          Perry is a fraud, a big government RINO, ex-Democrat that has used State funds and future revenues to bribe companies to relocate from other states (resulting in a net loss for the US, even if a gain for Texas). He won't get my primary vote, and shouldn't get yours. Take a deeper look, he is not what he would like you to think he is.[^], and he is not a fiscal conservative[^]

          Although, regarding the first link, the article helps Perry - tort reform, making jobs a priority, keeping taxes and spending low, and also what he didn't do - get in he way of the energy industry.

              I think my favorite nonsense excuse people give for one group is to call them a rough or basically say so and so is doing it too. As if that makes it ok. Besides http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/aug/16/phone-hacking-now-reporter-letter[^] there own words tend to deflate the idea that there wasn't a cover up or than the timeline of when James Murdoch new what was going on doesn't match up with events taken place. They're a corporation and corporations only exist for one reason, profit. Everything else is by happenstance.

                There is no arguing that the big liberal states (NY, California, Michigan, NJ(has reason for hope), Rhode Island, Illinois, Wisconsin, Connecticut) have bankrupted themselves so their political leaders could derived power from the government spending. Others states Arizona and Nevada in the most trouble found by a Pew study have huge illegal-immigration issues. And, your links are irrelevant, as they simply provide an indication of the fact that red states have poorer citizens--a historical condition. So what? Mathematically, the net loss/gain to the federal government is insignifant when compared to certain state governments' deliberate policy steps taken to solidify a voter base which ends up driving away or hampering private businesses. Also, your gallup poll on political affiliations means nothing to this conversation. The types of policies put in place the state level are cold hard fact. They need no poll to interpret.

                Not looking through all of them, but I know for a fact that the Wisconsin Governor is a Republican.... Yes the state tends to vote Dem and Left, but your argument is lost when part of the government is not on that side of the fence.. Who caused the damange??

                Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

                  Scott Walker is a new governor and has done something very important to turn back the tide in his state. He has ended the automatic payment to state unions out of the paychecks of teachers. This is why he is hated so much by the union leaders, btw.
