ORIGINAL: Hillwilliam A rock that was painted over and the paint subsequently weathered exposing an underlying layer of decades old paint with an offensive word on it. Why don't people attack Perry because he is scientifically illiterate? Why don't they attack him on the issues? Why don't they attack him because he has sold his soul to the religious right? What was he supposed to do with the rock? Drill a hole in it, blow it up with nitro, sandblast and bury all the pieces? I put Perry just above Bachman and below Palin on the dumbass scale but seriously, tempest, meet teapot. I think the bigger issue is missed here. A five foot by three foot rock was labled. Then painted over, but the original working "bled" through. You want to cover something, you paint it the same color, not white wash it. The rock was then "turned over".... begs the question... if thats true, who turned that size of a rock back? Its a huge rock. He didnt write it, his family didnt write it. No one is disputing that fact. A case of insensitivity.... yep. A case of lying... seems like it. Lying about something... IF he is lying.... that truly would not have bit anyone in the ass.. had the truth simply been told. Hell, I would have accepted.... "yeah, we painted it white and thought it was covered up. Since no one used that end, I didnt check back." If you will life... IF he is lying about this... about something so trivial... what will you do when the big stuff hits. I still say attack him on the big stuff. Like a brain. I also said "weathered" not emerged. That means it wore off. In hind sight, yeah maybe he would paint it a different color or buy expensive paint but that was over 25 years ago. If I bought a camp with something offensive painted on it, I'd probably take a bucket of white "Kilz" up and paint over it and forget about it. 25 years later and it weathers because I bought cheap paint, am I now a racist? Attacking Perry for this is about as petty as attacking Obama for having someone carry his umbrella or putting his feet on the desk. PETTY crap when there are REAL issues to worry about As for 3' by 5' rock, if it's no more than 6" thick, piece of cake to flip over even at My advanced age.
