Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry expressed confidence on Fox News Sunday that his policy proposals will win over the American people as he talked up his flat-tax proposal and defended the lower revenue rates his plan will bring in.
Perry's appearance--his first on any of the Sunday morning talk shows--came just as a new poll by the Des Moines Register showed him tied for fifth place with former House Speaker Newt Gingrich at 7 percent in the state. Ahead of the Texas governor in the poll were businessman Herman Cain (23 percent), former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (22 percent), Texas Rep. Ron Paul (12 percent), and Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann (8 percent).
But Perry said he is convinced his flat-tax plan will sway voters his way. "Americans will say, 'Not only is this a great plan--this fella's got the record of doing it. That's what we need in the White House,' " Perry said. He insisted the plan, which calls for a voluntary 20 percent flat tax on all Americans, will "put the meat on the bone" for voters.
And though the plan would bring in $4.7 trillion less in revenue than the current tax system, Perry doesn't see a problem. "There's nothing wrong with lower revenue," he said. "I don't want more revenue in D.C.'s hands, I want more revenue in job creators' hands."
To help balance that, he is pledging to cut $1 trillion from the federal budget in his first year in office, though still has few details to offer on how exactly he would do that. On the show, he suggested $25 billion could be saved by combining the Education Department's elementary and secondary education programs and sending some of their responsibilities back to the states, but did not offer other solutions.
And he pushed back against the suggestion by host Chris Wallace that his plan to create 2.5 million jobs--built mostly on expanding energy exploration in the U.S. and reforming the tax code--was too low. Perry painted the number as a more realistic vision than, perhaps, a promise that he create 10.5 million jobs.
Perry also assured Wallace he was up to the challenge of debating, both with his competitors and President Obama. On Saturday night, his advisors confirmed that he will participate in at least five more debates in the coming months: a CNBC debate in Michigan on Nov. 9, a CBS debate in South Carolina on Nov. 12, a Family Leader forum in Iowa on Nov. 19, and CNN-sponsored debates in Washington on Nov. 15 and in Arizona on Dec. 1, said spokesman Mark Miner.
"I'm not worried a bit that I'll be able to stand on the stage with Barack Obama and draw a very bright line," Perry said. "He's an individual who lost 2.5 million jobs for this country--his experiment with the American economy turned it into an absolutely Frankenstein experience," he added, in a nod to Halloween.
During the show, Perry also repeated an oft-cited criticism of President Obama's proposal to withdraw troops from Iraq by saying it was "irresponsible" to inform the enemy of one's plans. The other target of Perry's criticism was fellow candidate Mitt Romney, who Perry has been attacking for being inconsistent in his views since his entry into the race.

Thanks for doing that. I think it is needed. I am just hoping the code wouldn't be to difficult to accomplish this.

I'd also like it if they took it a step further and added the ability to password protect the folders. I've recording various adult programming off HBO before (Real Sex, Cat House, etc). I know we can set parental controls so kids can't view those programs, but it would better if we could simply keep the children, baby-sitter, guest, etc. from seeing what's recorded period.

I was so excited to receive these goggles, and was thrilled with the look and feel of them. I must first say I have an extremely small and narrow face and have a difficult time finding googles that fit, and when I got in the water they leaked because the nose piece was too wide for me. I did order the Ops small 2.0 and they fit well however they did not have the color options that this google has, so boo-hoo for me but with a larger face I think they would be great!

Love them for open water swimming and race day
May 28, 2015 | Posted by | Gender: Female Sport Interest: Triathlon Age: 45-54
These goggles fit and feel great! I'm a small/medium sized female so I got the small size. No leaking, they aren't overly dark and tinted. Recently used them during a race while sighting directly into the sun and they were pretty good. Nothing was going to be perfect in that circumstance, but I was glad I choose these over my mirrored goggles. The only place I don't like using them is at the indoor pool. The lane line looks weird to me for some reason and it distracts me during practice. I've decided these are my open water/race day goggles only.

What I liked best about this style swim goggle is the type of rubber padding around the eye area. It doesn't press in so
hard as to leave deep grooves in my eye socket area.

The grey mirror coating just came off out of nowhere. No longer reflects the sunlight or prevents it from entering my eyes. Before that happened, it was a quality pair of goggles. However, this defect completely ruins it.

#1 Triathlon Goggle

This is by far the best triathlon goggle I have ever used. I was a big fan of the first Special Ops, but V2 is even better. There is virtually no distortion, gaskets are incredibly comfortable and the strap stays firmly in place. I've tested a lot of other brands and no other goggle comes close!

The Spain midfielder was not expected back after an ankle injury before the next month's international break but tweeted: "I will be fit maybe in one week, I hope I can play at West Brom."
Cazorla, 28, has missed the Gunners' last four matches in all competitions due to the problem and, prior to possibly travelling to The Hawthorns, will miss the trip to Swansea on Saturday and hosting Napoli in the Champions League on Tuesday.
As well as Cazorla, manager Arsene Wenger is without Theo Walcott (stomach), Yaya Sanogo (back), Lukas Podolski (hamstring), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Abou Diaby (both knee).
However, Mikel Arteta came through 95 minutes unscathed in Wednesday's Capital One Cup third-round tie with the Baggies, which the Gunners won 4-3 on penalties after it finished 1-1 after extra-time.
Czech midfielder Tomas Rosicky is also due back to training on Monday ahead of the visit of Rafael Benitez's Italian leaders to The Emirates the following day.
