In the past political candidates have been parodied on SNL, eviscerated on Comedy Central, and made the butt of jokes on late night talk shows, but I do believe this is the first time that anybody has been such a buffoon that they were ridiculed by an app sent out to millions of I-Phone users.

(H/T to TPM.)
Such a small mind. Perry needs to write on his hand ala La Quitta.
ReplyDeletesuch a good sport. He's a good leader who knows what sacrifices a leader should make on behalf of a country.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless him! I bet he's thinking, "Damn, if I were named Barack Obama, everyone would ignore all my little gaffes and think I crap ice cream. Oh well, frauds like him can't go on forever. Even his paint sniffing followers will see the light and realize he's a moron without ANY real plans or convictions."
OMG.
ReplyDeleteThat is hysterical!
Ha!Ha! I got my Yelp update yesterday morning! I'm from Austin where we call him Governor Pointy Boots. He is notorious for refusing to debate and has successfully won reelection without having to face the press or his opponents time and again. As a Texan I'm glad the spotlight has been shown on his deficiencies.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, i totally disagree with the argument that this was "all too human", a "momentary lapse".
ReplyDeleteSomeone wrote that it happened to them after speaking about their thesis for 15 min. and then couldn't recall the sources.
They tried to say it was the same thing as Perry. I vehemently disagree.
It would have been similar to Perry if this person had forgotten one third of their THESIS! Something they had supposedly worked on for many, many months.
Thing is, if Perry had recalled all three, he couldn't tell you WHY!
If he had known in his heart WHY he wanted these agencies gone, he would have been able to recount those reasons, and that "word", would have come to him.
Perry wasn't lacking a word.
Perry is lacking a platform.
Ron Paul is nutz, but he could certainly name the agencies he wants abolished and WHY. Because Ron Paul actually did the work himself.
'Member when Perry was like, "Hey, don't blame me cuz Mtt already has a healthcare plan! He's been at this a lot longer than me! But I'll get that to you soon".
Perry siphoned it off to his "team" and they came back with his talking points.
And he simply couldn't recall them.
Empty suit.
I am still waiting for the right wing puppet masters to quit distracting us with their clown show and bring out their Great White Hope who will come riding in like a Knight in Shining Armor on his Great White Horse to save the day. Who will it be?
ReplyDeleteAh, I should have put that all in caps with lots of exclamation points.

S T F U Sarah! How dare you talk about your buddy Rick Perry like that!! Without him you would be just a footnote...come to think of it...you are a footnote....not worthy even to be mentioned by ANYBODY! NOBODY GIVES A SHIT WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY... get that through your dirty ass wig! Rick Perry doesn't know shit about "sacrifices"...and I'm pretty sure he can't spell it either! The question is...why are you on here bothering Gryphen instead of taking care of your kids...you inbred!
Ahh, the trolls are back @ 6:49...Sarah, is that you again?
ReplyDeleteSure sounds like you...taking every chance to Obama bash, when this post is about Rick Perry's lack of a brain.
Rick Perry is the empty suit king of Texas, leader in name only, a symbolic figure who's only goal is to fill his coffers with cash from rich donors, selling his state to the highest bidder. He has made no sacrifices on behalf of the people of his state. He cut firefighter budgets while Texas burned, costing over $2B in agriculture losses. He lives high on the hog in a $10,000 month mansion paid for by his cronies, gotten rich from shady land deals, and makes political decisions based on the price paid by his donors.
I feel sorry for you, that you're so willfully ignorant and easily led by empty talking points. It sucks to be you.
Even here , the trolls are circling.......
ReplyDeleteI'm with Lynne's viewpoint. Can't be he of great girth from New Jersey because he supports the magic underwear guy. My guess is someone with instant name recognition, someone like Liz Cheyney, Jeb Bush, Joe Paterno or Kim Kardashian.
ReplyDeleteThe asshats and asshatette they have up there can't cut the mustard. Can't wait for their foreign policy debate. This is going to be truly Orville Redenbacker worthy!
Give the guy a break. W was his role model, and they ARE from Texass.
ReplyDelete7:14 Their "great white hope" is reportedly JEB BUSH!! So much stuff in his closet also, too. Newt is rising in the polls, too. If he becomes president, he will have affairs for sure, since he "loves his country so much" that is what happens when he works hard.
ReplyDeleteEmbarrassing for Perry that his legacy is "Oops." No doubt his obits will include this one inconsequential debate performance.
ReplyDeleteOT. I'm not a basketball fan, but I love the pics over at TheObamaDiary.com from yesterday. He and Michelle look so wonderfully relaxed.
Also OT check out this story in The Atlantic about how Obama and Hillary have repaired our relationship with those zany Kiwis in New Zealand.

8:11 am. I think Kim Kardashian is too young! But the GOP would make an exception for her!
ReplyDeleteThat's nothing.
ReplyDeleteThere are three women that Herb Cain didn't harass while he was at the NRA, but he can only remember one of them.
I can't wait for SNL tonight! This will be hilarious.
ReplyDeleteThere are three unqualified incompetents who shouldn't be running for the Republican nomination: Bachman, Cain and uh ... someone else whose name escapes me ....
