BBC News - Rick Perry struggles at Republican debate

Senile before his time. What a plonker.

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

It was all over CNN this morning. It made George Bush look like a mental giant. I almost felt sorry for him.

 

[Alceste]

I kind of felt sorry for him, but it's pretty astonishing that he wants to shut down departments of the US government that he can't even name. What did he do, pluck them out of a hat?

Nice dig by Ron Paul though. "EPA"? Lol. Burn.

Edit: Wait a second. Ron Paul wants to shut down the EPA, so it wasn't a burn. He was trying to be helpful. What a pack of crazy people.

I think he may just be a big, blow-up politician. Has anyone checked his butt for an air plug?

 

[Trey of Diamonds]

When I was in Texas everyone called him "Pretty Hair". That's about the only nice thing I can remember about him. Now adays he's just plain scary, pretty hair or not.

That's what so great about America, even the dumbest have a shot at leadership as long as they pay lip service to religious and patriotic sentiments.

Are you kidding? ONLY the dumbest have a shot, we weed out all the smart ones early on.

True, it's not like they're the ones who actually call the shots once they're in office. That duty goes to the high bidders.

I wonder whether Rick Perry and Herman Cain are only in the race to make Mitt Romney look like a reasonable moderate.

That would be giving the Republican party way too much credit.

 

[Revoltingest]

I don't watch debates, but I did see a clip of this melt-down.
I want him to bow out....I'm uncomfortable feeling sorry for him.

Perry may be the dumbest thing to come along since square tires but at least he has the Texas vote wrapped up.

I wouldn't be so sure. I know lots of folks back in Texas who will never vote for Perry.

 

[Sunstone]

I wouldn't be so sure. I know lots of folks back in Texas who will never vote for Perry.

That's heartening. But hasn't Texas voted Perry governor more than once?

 

[Trey of Diamonds]

That's heartening. But hasn't Texas voted Perry governor more than once?

Yeah, and he might have the rural parts wrapped up. In the cities he's losing his appeal. Houston and Austin for sure.

That's great to hear.

Right on.

Don't. Texans have been eating it up for years, mainly because he has been making his supporters very rich. That's all that he does, and he's very good at it here. I think that the rich people out here need idiots like Bush and Perry so they unquestioningly do their bidding.

 

[Mathematician]

That's heartening. But hasn't Texas voted Perry governor more than once?

He won recently because of a three-way race. Kinky.

 

[Kathryn]

I swear we're not all like Bush and Perry out here. And we didn't all vote for those yahoos either!
