RIP Rick Perrys Campaign

Oooops.

Rick can you name three presidents?

Shit, he just nailed down the redneck stoner vote.

"Because I mean yeah....F*ck education. Kids don't learns nuthin there No how."

How can 50% of the country stand behind that? Could we move that percentage of idiots some place where they can't harm us all. Idk, maybe they could occupy Wyoming.

This reminds me of Monty Python.

"What is your favourite colour?"

"Blue ... no, yello..... aaaaaaaaaaaaa....!"

Oh I forgot to add I hope he wins...great post thanks for posting!

That giant sucking sound you will hear on Jan 3rd is the sudden evacuation of the 2012 Republican presidential candidate field. Oh well, at least they're spending money and helping the economy, I guess.

Won't you help?

Aw, that's cute.

He is talking about doing away with education, and he can't even remember all he would get rid of.

I'm not sure if that is a large dose of irony or not.

Would you trust this man with the POTUS football?

Congratulations, Rick Perry! You've just *earned* your Huffy Puffy CM2 badge.

watching rick perry fumble with his answer was painful to watch.

Oops,

Pretty much says it all.

The fork was stuck in this turkey along time ago.....he's done.

Is anyone really taking him, or Bachman, or Cain seriously? I think they were just the entertainers put out here to distract us until Romney gets the nomination since the Democrats don't have anyone running in a primary to go back and forth with them. Which is why I never took any of them seriously.

The Daily Show and SNL should have a field day with this. With the Daily Show doing a better job, of course.

He could be just acting stupid so the anti-intellectual Republican voters will think he's the right man for the job. The Republicans are trying to kill education because they know anybody who's informed, with any intelligence, or no agenda do not vote for them.

Oh, and did anyone notice that he kept looking out into the crowd for a clue?

Probably help from someone in his campaign who actually know what Perry should be talking about.

Wow! He was supposed to be the big Romney killer when he entered the race. It appears, instead, that he's killing himself.

I listened to a discussion on MTP (I think) this past Sunday where the pundits were discussing Perry's chances of getting back into the race. A couple thought his chances were good, given Cain's certain departure in light of his scandal. His lost votes would likely go to Perry, they thought. But after last night, I don't think he has a chance, oh well.

Obama and his people have been planning on battling Romney, it seems that's almost a certainty now.

The slimy political gloss falls from another puppet....I think they are all like this once you strip away the polish.
Maybe people will wake up to the fact that it's simply a game of ego, arrogance and wealth.

Nahh, the stone cold republicans will accept any blunder.

Remember, people still supported Bush 2 before he left office.

Blam! Voted off the island!!!

I bet he wishes he had the cliff's notes of the book "he" wrote.

Don't blame drugs or alcohol for his ignorance. He is but an imbecile, a tool that the elite can use to unthinkingly do their bidding in the White House. He sees the government as a control mechanism to increase profits. The only thing he wants to do is to make it so that he and his rich puppet masters can fully exploit the poor and middle class without having to pay taxes back to the society that enriched them. He doesn't think in terms of governing the people. He thinks in business terms. He thinks about profits. He thinks about how he hates a government that works for the people. He only wants it to work to generate power and wealth for himself and his evil kin. Just about all politicians are like that. Corporations and the corporate-run media do not allow intelligent independent-thinking politicians to have a shot in hell at the White House. That's why he has no idea what he's talking about. It's because he doesn't give a shit about the real issues. He just sees all government programs that help people as some big black box that he wants to destroy. He doesn't care about the details at all.

I don't feel bad for him.

Ha, was he ever in the race? This guy has always been comic relief.

I think the fact he is an actual government official really underscores the serious lack of education we have in our country. Only a fool would see this guy as a legitimate option.

Rick Perry is having far too many brain-freezes, and senior moments. Maybe he could benefit from Sister Sarah's technique of writing his notes in his hands. It is a popular trend among Teabagger/Republicans...

Send them all home, they are there for a reason and it is not to help us. Empty their offices and lets evaluate and change how and what systems should continue and how right action can be implemented into all we do....anything else at this point is just wasting humanity's time.

Perry is not a smart man. He’s basically a bigger doofus than Bush is, and that’s saying something. IMO, I think he was drunk again or on drugs. The guy is not right. It's shows how far this country has fallen--to let someone like this even run for president--wow. Not funny at all. PS...RIP Rick Perry's campaign--this should also apply to Herman Cain's.

"Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be president of the United States, please pay attention." - Molly Ivins

Molly Ivins (1944-2007) was a great political commentator, humorist, newspaper columnist and author who covered Texas politics for many years, she would be having she would be having a hayday.

As President i will do away with 3 Departments of Government,er 5,er 4,er 3,Commerce,Education,and uh,er,OH YEAH the Office of President! They don`t call me "The Wack-a-Doodle from Waco" for nothin`! I either caught the terminal Alzheimers or it was all that Kick-A-Poo Joy Juice I drank before the debate!(Burp) What was the question agin`?

Just goes to show there is nothing between the ears except
Texas dust.
He does actually make W look like he had average intelligence.

Spoken like a true puppet, whose puppet master left the room for a minute to use the loo. I won't say who he reminds me of, but the guy was from Texas too. Seems like they have a corner on stupid for governor down there....

Lucky for him that the oath of office is a "Repeat after me" type speech, if he was ever selected.

yes thank god!! RICK PERRY IS SCUM!!! NEXT!! HAHA MITT ROMNEY SCUM!!!

A good friend of mine does the same thing, he'll be talking and then forget what he was talking about. He'll be totally lost. My friend had a brain tumor removed years ago and has a reason for this to happen to him, Perry has no reason unless he used too many drugs (in the past) and burnt out a few too many brain cells.

ooops!

They must have given him to many drugs .... fried his brain .... woah .

"I mean, the people who have the money to fund it must have been smart in some capacity."

As Kevin Phillips argues in "American Dynasty: Aristocracy, Fortune, and the Politics of Deceit in the House of Bush" Wealth breeds for loyalty, not brains.

Why on earth would people put that money behind someone who can't speak publicly? I mean, the people who have the money to fund it must have been smart in some capacity
