Wow. I thought it was a gaffe when I read the title here but no, HE MADE THAT AN AD. Someone needs to ask him to explain that. That just flat out sucks.
Oh, come on. You all need to grow up and move on with your lives, that's what mature, serious people do. Just in case you have deciphered this election's media script yet, Murray's pretty obviously the mature, serious candidate.
For my money, Perry clearly sounded like the best candidate at the Inspector General forum. I was beginning to have doubts about him. More doubts actually, I always had some.

I have doubts about all these people. I'm in the unfamiliar and uncomfortable position of being an actual undecided voter right now.
But it's a weird year all around. For example, the Saints are undefeated.

According to E at We Could Be Famous, Perry dominated the sparsely attended crime debate as well.
This is modern America. Many of our institutions have become incapable of admitting mistakes, learning from failures and self-correcting. Sadly, one of the few and most effective options is to loudly focus on blame and investigate who is at fault. One of the only others is to litigate.
That is a shame. Both options are divisive and of limited utility. But they are almost all we have to work with.
Murray may be making a case that we should worry more about moving forward than dwelling on the past, but he frames it in such a way that would excuse mistakes and revise history.
To quote Faulkner, "the past is never dead, it isn't even past."
