I got this in email yesterday from our friend Sarah Brady.................................
Dear Tom,
Is this the type of President the American public wants?
When asked if he was armed on the campaign trail, Texas Governor Rick Perry smiled and replied, "That’s why it’s called concealed."
That's something I preach in my CCW classes.
Stop this extremism before it reaches the White House!
The Republican primary campaign has hardly begun and already it is being dominated by extremists. None as scary as Rick Perry who brazenly carries weapons — concealed and revealed. Even on the campaign trail!
Gee, a candidate who is willing to take responsibility for himself and his own safety. I don't call that brazen, I call it refreshing!!
Only an egotistical extremist would carry a loaded weapon into a crowd — encouraging others to do so.
Apparently Mrs. Brady considers Secret Service Agents and other LEOs to be "egotistical extremists".
Is this where America is headed? Is this the America you want for our nation’s children?
If it's headed toward personal responsibility then I certainly HOPE this is where America is headed. And yes, this IS the America I want for our children. Personal responsibility.....what a concept!!
Polls prove over and over again that Americans support sensible gun laws and don’t want guns in public places. Our goal is for our elected officials to reflect the will of the American people, not the "guns everywhere" ideologues.
Apparently Sarah and I are looking at different polls.
Please help us with a donation today to stop gun extremists before it is too late.
Sincerely,
Sarah Brady, Chair
Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence

Imagine if she weren't dyslexic and put her initials in the correct order
BS

You know, I'm not sold on Perry, probably because he gives off the same "used car salesman" vibe as Rommney (though to a much smaller degree), but if Sarah hates him this much? Hell that's a million dollar endorsement as far as I'm concerned. Carrying a weapon in a crowd makes you an extremist? Gee Sarah, what's your plan when that crowd turns hostile? A well timed bon mot? How about I fly you to London? ::)

2 words.
HELL YES !

I'm not sold on Perry yet either. I think I remember they tried to do a recall or something on him years ago to try and get him out of office. Anybody else remember that??
-
Not to be a prick Sarah darling, but were all those guys, particulary the one waving the uzi around "egotistical extremists" or were you glad to have them there? And how were their guns better than mine other than being taxpayer funded?
FQ13 who says KMA I don't care how unPC this might be, I'm tired of this old hag who has burned up her 18th minute.

Sarah Brady is a bitter old bat hating an object for her husbands injury. Anything she has to say about Rick Perry or any other subject is irrelevant. The only good thing I can say about her is that she has stuck by Jim Brady all these years and that can't have been easy.

So she should bitch to her kids and leave the rest of us alone.
She can be replaced by a Tracy Chapman album, or a Quaalude or something.

If you feel strongly about something, its your civic duty to presue it.
I don't agree with her, but she has "stuck to her guns"
that being said, the brady group, has not stuck to thier guns, they have become political.... going after anything they can get.

So she honored her marriage vows. That is to be expected and not the nominating factor for an award. The thing that keeps me from giving her a pat on the back for the stress and trials this has brought her is that she allowed her grief to take control rather than working through the pain to the point of making rational decisions before pushing her pain on the rest of the world's citizens.

Of course she takes care of him, The turnip in the wheel chair is her meal ticket, and she wheels him out at fund raisers like a freak in a side show.
It amazes me that people condemn the circus but give this bat a pass.

It may have started out as supporting her husband, but now I think it's something else. I would say in addition to meal ticket it's the power and adoration it brings. I remember early on Jim Brady saying he did not support her efforts and how cruel she appeared brow beating him...and that was on TV.

It's like with Carolyn McCarthy, "Oh, How sad, Her hubby was killed by the subway shooter".
What never gets mentioned is that they were getting divorced after years of him beating the snot out of her.
Not exactly a tragedy, the day he got shot was the day she won the lottery.
