Rick Perry shows what a man he is by bullying 76 year old Ron Paul!

These are pictures taken during a commercial break in the Republican debate.

Notice that he has grabbed hold of Paul's wrist.
What do you think he needed to lean in so close to say? I doubt it was reasonable.
Jon Huntsman decides to step in between them to protect Ron Paul.
I fucking hate bullies!  And though I am not sure what was said here, I can certainly tell from Perry's body language that he was trying to intimidate Ron Paul, who might be a nut, but he is a harmless nut, and does NOT deserve to be disrespected in this manner!

(Big Hat tip to Market Ticker Forum.)

Update: I have no idea if this means I have slipped into an alternate universe or just eaten a batch of bad mushrooms, but somehow I found myself in agreement with the Sea O'Pee on Rick Perry and his bullying techniques.  I will try to make sure that NEVER happens again.

I mean talk about "jumping the shark!"

    That body language was despicable. You don;t have to know what was being said because there were many photos showing the same anger and aggression.

    One photo could be misinterpreted, but not this many.

    I do not want, nor should any American want, a man such as this leading our country. Truth is, he shouldn't be leading a state because his track record show he is leading it down to ruin.

    What an arrogant, ignorance S-O-B that pissant is. As the fictional Juanita Jean in a TX blog would say, his is a sumbitch.

    Remember when he grabbed Sarah at the Governors conference in Florida,and started speaking for her at the press conference.

    The man is a thug. He has no qualms about executing an innocent man. Can you imagine, were he to get all that power as President?

    That's why we have to work harder to re elect the President. These people scare the hell outta me.

    Thanks for putting this post up. This perfectly displays the Rick Perry we know here in Texas. And although your caption on the top photo reads that he grabbed his hand, actually I believe it was Ron Paul's forearm; minor point except that this was NOT a friendly handshake. In another Reuters photo, Ron Paul's bodyguard is shown in the foreground, reportedly moving toward him just in case.

    Perry is simply unaccustomed to being opposed in any way. He's a career politician who's become a millionaire while on the state payroll through dirty dealings. NO ONE stands up to him: they either owe their job to him (he's spent 10 years building out a system of patronage that is outrageous - the real power of the "weak" governor system in Texas) or he's holding some power over them (regulatory, financial, etc.)

    What recent photo does this menacing posture recall? Sarah and Todd maybe?

    Also, there's a damning video of similar nastiness when Rick Perry's driver was pulled over for speeding, and Perry unloaded on him "why don't you just let us get on down the road" in a really unpleasant way.

    If Perry is an alpha dog, as stated on another post, then he's a rabid one.

    Rick Perry swaggers and smirks and charms and bullies because for YEARS he's been able to do anything he damn well pleases in Texas. Last election cycle he refused to meet with the editorial boards of the state's newspapers because he didn't want to answer questions on the record, and refused to debate his Democratic opponent over some chickenshit "he won't disclose his tax returns from 25 years ago" excuse.

    He called the legislature back into emergency session not for the school budget but to pass the vaginal ultrasound abortion requirement. He grows more smug and self-assured, more outrageous with each passing year.

    Perry has sold this Texas out to every special interest with an open wallet. Our education system is crippled for a generation. More than 1 in 4 children go to bed hungry every night. We have the highest rate of uninsured citizens in the country. He refused to use the billions sitting in the rainy day fund for this purpose, instead balancing the budget on the backs of the poor, young, sick, disabled, and elderly - oh, and the federal stimulus money he crowed about. And he committed $25 billion for a new Formula 1 race track, in addition to the billions he keeps in his private enterprise fund to hand out to his big donors for so called business development.

    Please send money to Obama's campaign if this is who he goes up against, because Perry will pivot for the general election and look you in the eye with every lie imaginable and tell you that you must have misunderstood what he said before. This is EXACTLY the kind of guy who would say, "What are you gonna believe, darlin', me or your lyin' eyes?" And he will have a war chest to hammer those lies home.

    My hope is he crashes and burns in a major flameout of epic proportions. He deserves it, and we need to be saved from him doing for the country what he did for Texas: dirty air and water, slave wage jobs, unsafe workplaces, crippled education system, gutted safety net services, guns everywhere, and on and on.

    Rant over. But this guy is a special kind of bad.

    http://wonkette.com/452642/rick-perry-is-al-gores-texas-cheerleader-according-to-hilarious-ron-paul-ad

    Or maybe Rick hasn't forgotten this ad yet?

    A supporter of Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul has taken out an ad seeking anyone who has had sex with Texas Gov. Rick Perry.

    The ad, which ran in this week's edition of the Austin Chronicle, asks: "Are you a stripper, an escort, or just a 'young hottie' impressed by an arrogant, entitled governor of Texas?"


    http://www.businessinsider.com/rick-perry-adultery-gay-rumors-2011-8


    Maybe it was something else. Was he telling Ron something like- 'You assholes put up the Pink Cowboy video and I'm putting up the AquaBuddah video'. And then maybe he got really pissed when Ron said 'Legalize It, Don't Criticize It, Legalize It.'

    And Perry lost it and challenged Paul to a duel as soon as Texas secedes. Which was when Huntsman got between them. Possibly Huntsman is saying- 'Wait a minute Rick, the Chinese already think the Republican Party has lost it's shit,now this?? WTF!'

    Rick Perry is here at this debate thanks to Turdblossom.

    Perry has no problem with in-your-face fuck you's: like removing the head of an agency two days before hearing a report from an outside arson forensics expert, effectively shutting down the investigation that would reveal he had refused to even DELAY the execution of an innocent man to review the evidence. And he recently tried to jigger the vote granting the regulatory permit for a new nuclear waste disposal site in west Texas (on the New Mexico border, so he doesn't mind screwing neighboring states as well) - first he dangled a plum university regent appointment, then when it was refused he re-stacked the agency... and now we're going to allow radioactive waste from half the states - and all for one of his big donors.

    He's a crook, and NOTHING is too outrageous for him to think he can get away with. Because he has. No one here in Texas has the juice to go up against him, because he plays mean and dirty and he's pretty much been paid off by, or bought off, everyone who could.

    I want to see him throw an elbow on Obama - and be buried, humiliated, spanked.

    Ron Paul is anything but harmless. What Perry appears to be doing to Paul in these photos, i.e. bullying, is nothing compared to what Paul, as a powerful U.S. Senator, does to women's reproductive rights.

    Fuck Ron Paul. Fuck Rick Perry too, of course. But I couldn't care less if they kill each other.

    Ron Paul is a nasty piece of work, but I think what Gryphen meant was at least Ron is civil, peaceful, and carries himself well in public unlike Governor P-Rick. Ron's son Rand, on the other hand...

    This email is supposedly by the guy who ran the ad for dirt on Perry. It might be a hoax, but was found on a long established RWNJ site. It shows as posted 4 days ago. This same email is reposted in some other places.

    http://hammeroftruth.com/2011/robert-morrow-stirs-the-rick-perry-sex-and-drugs-pot/

    Here is what we are learning about

    Rick Perry

    Please forward this to your email list

    Ask leads/sources to call Robert Morrow at 512-306-1510. They can also email me at FamilyValuesHypocrite@gmail.com

    1) Rick Perry has been mining strip clubs and escort services all over Texas for a very long time. Rampant adultery. Basically, Rick has his entourage literally go in the clubs and get the girls; they rent the hotel rooms; they call the escort services. Rick has been living in the gutter as much as Bill Clinton. I just talked with someone familiar with the San Antonio strip club scene and he confirmed what I know from Austin. A new source will be revealing that Perry on 2 seperate occasions in approx 2006 had age 18-19 year old women delivered to his hotel room. That is just the tip of Perry’s rampant whore bisexual mongering.

    2) The gay rumors are very likely true, too. We have 2 gay men working on getting their friends, who they say have had gay sex with Rick Perry, to go public. There are also 2 other credible gay men who probably had sex with Rick Perry who we are working. 4 total. I have not met these 4 primary sources yet; the going is slow, but I think over a period of months something will happen. When Bill Clinton ran for president in 1992, he by then had hundreds of women, but only 3 went public in 1992 – Gennifer Flower, Sally Perdue, Bobbie Ann Williams. Then they were greeted with Hillary’s terror campaign of private detectives.

    3) I think Rick Perry uses cocaine a lot. Remember the stripper in 2009 told me he was “too coked up” to get it up or perform sexually. Someone close to Rick’s supposed cocaine dealer called me recently.

    4) Anita Perry has 4-5 male friends herself according to friends of her friends. So Anita is a little whore, too. I think Rick and Anita have a pure Hillary/Bill Clinton arrangement where they have sex with whoever they want. Anita almost never lets lecher Rick kiss her on the lips; always closing her eyes, puckering her lips, then looking away from him. I think I know why!

    Rick Perry is a highly compromised man and his over the top dysfunctional *personal life* is an absolute gold mine for media, GOP opponents & Demo opponents. Really, it is stunning that this stuff has not come out already.

    I think it is just a matter of time before a credible primary source on Rick’s debauchery comes forward. Ask your sources on Rick Perry to call me at 512-306-1510 or email me at FamilyValuesHypocrite@gmail.com.

    Sincerely,

    Robert Morrow

    Ron Paul is not a nut. His policy follows what was written in the constitution, period. Like it or not. Listen to what he says then read the part of the constitution pertaining to what he is talking about. See for yourself.

    5:41 PM

    You're kidding, right? You want people to read his policy, then find something in the constitution that defends it?

    Please show us, where, in the constitution it says "I can get gas to ten cents a gallon, if you use a silver dime", his assinine energy policy statement in the speech, in an attempt to make Michele Bachmann's brilliant statement "Under a Bachmann Presidency, we'll see gas for less than two dollars a gallon" sound ludicrous. She did fine without his help.

    Not there? Maybe it's in the Statute of Liberty? It's gotta be SOMEWHERE, right?

    Is Ron Paul nuts? Not just yes, but hell yes!

    I read something that perry got into paul's face right after paul said (paraphrase) You (perry) weren't against so-so when you "fancy" yourself over and signed the bill."

    I think perry got his panties in a twist because it made reference to him being gay.

    perry knows anything sexual is a sore spot for him.

    Rick Perry is a bully, but Ron Paul is a virulent racist. Please read The New Republic's article from May 2011 titled aptly enough "Ron Paul's Racism." He isn't harmless just because he's 76. He has been a huge contributor to the racist tone in the Republican Party for decades. He's not some cute, doddering old man. A lot of college students love him, but know nothing about his virulent racist side.

    Oh, Gryphen, more of your typical liberal whining... Maybe in your nancy-boy state what Perry did was 'bullying' but in Texas it aint bullying less'n he pulled a gun. And fired it. Into something living.

    Yeah, he got all up in Ron Paul's grill. And I can't imagine his breath is too pleasing to smell. But so what? Did he pull a gun? Did he fire a gun? Did he fire a gun into something? Into something living? No. No. No. and... no. Objective (Texas-style) conclusion: no bullying. And if Ron Paul really felt threatened, he could have pulled his own hand gun to protect himself the way a REAL Texas man would do. In fact, any of them, all of them could have pulled their hand guns and ducked behind their respective podia and resolved the problem the good old-fashioned Founding Fathers t-bagger way with a political shoot-out.

    Did it EVER occur to you that, perhaps, just perhaps, what our political system needs is MORE guns and violence, not less? No, I suppose not. That's the problem with you liberals. A fundamental inability to shoot outside of the box...

    Remember, this man could easily become the next president. And once inaugurated it's likely he won't be exercising the restraint he did on Ron Paul. That dick Perry isnt a peacemaker. He CARRIES a Peacemaker. A Colt .45 Cal. Single Action Peacemaker. And that ain't the worst: He just ain't smart enough not to use it.

    ==============================
    Oops... I mistyped something that I didnt notice until I after I hit PUBLISH. In the last paragraph it reads "dick Perry" and of course, it should read "RICK Perry". I apologize to Governor Perry for the error. (asshole...)

    Mr G
    Please update this post with the video of Rick Perry manhandling Mrs Palin at an RGA press conference (after the last general election). It will be a good comparison and really shows his boorishness. Please?
    5:09 PM
    -----------------------
    I agree with Anonymous. I disliked Palin from the moment she opened her mouth at the RNC and started spewing her ignorant hate.

    But I also remember Perry's actions at that Governor's meeting and how he physically pushed her out of the way. It was rude, vulgar, and demeaning.

    I loathe Palin but that would not give me the right to behave as Perry did. Nor would it occur to me to behave in a boorish manner to someone because they were not a person I liked. You are a civilized person who behaves appropriately toward other people or you are not. Perry is not.

    Lots of comments over on Huffpo, many with links to this site for complete photos.

    My favorite comment:

    "Ron Paul knows that there's a lot more stink on this monkey, Perry"

    Don't you know that Perry gets that - Ron Paul is the perfect opponent for him right now: fearless, a little nutty, a congressman so not intimidated or indebted, with a very long history of hearing all about Perry's drug use, bisexual escapades, dirty money, and sellout politics - and at 20 years older and 30 pounds lighter, when he provokes Perry like this it sets up a scene like this.

    This is not the first time Perry has lost sight of the fact that he does NOT control everybody and everything (unlike back in Texas). A few years back he assumed the cameras had stopped rolling when he ended a TV interview, so he said (on camera, clearly and with some disdain) "Adios, mofo"

    So this time he assumed that commercial break meant he could do whatever he wanted and there'd be no record, he'd just say (as his handlers now have) I was just discussing policy with Ron Paul.

    Maybe now the camera guys will keep a closer and constant focus on him to catch him in more of this stuff.

    Personally, I think he needs to back off the testosterone replacement regimen and/or cut down on the coke.

    Ron Paul is not racist. He has been accused of being kooky, racist, fringe and a whole lot more. Those who benefit from the state frequently use simple minded ad hominem attacks against Dr. Paul, calling him names and making up slurrs, but if you take the time to read some of his books (especially 'Liberty Defined') will see clearly that Dr. Paul is in no way racist.

  110. Honestly, it's too bad Huntsman isn't more popular because he is clearly a conservative whereas most of these yahoos are about bringing America back to the dark ages.

    If the GOP base weren't insane - they'd nominate Huntsman cuz he would definitely give President Obama a run for his money. Huntsman at this point is the only Republican I have a shred of respect for.

    I may not agree with Ron Paul on many counts, but to speak to someone, especially someone in their late 70's that way, is just downright disgusting, I certainly know if someone spoke to someone in their mid 70's like that where I come from there'd be plenty of people willing to teach him a lesson or two

    Anon @ 6:02,
    Ron Paul most certainly IS a racist. His newsletters were chock full of racist bullshit with plenty of homophobia and anti-Semitism thrown in as a bonus.

    Paul has NOT effectively explained those newsletters in a fashion which either exonerates or absolves him of responsibility.

    If he wrote them, he is a racist. If he didn't write them, he was STILL a racist because all of the bigotry was published in a news letter emblazoned with his name AND he kept all of the money from the sales of these newsletters. He made more than $1 million from subscriptions to this racist rag.

    The best that Paul can argue is that he is so incompetent that he allowed his newsletters to be used by bigots and that he was unaware for 20 years.

    He's so fucking incompetent that he can't manage a monthly eight page mimeographed newsletter but he can be president? Please.

  119. We'll never know for sure just what was said, but those pictures speak volumes. Perry appears to have a very short fuse. With any luck, he's going to explode into a full-blown public temper tantrum/fist fight/smackdown and show the world his true colors.
