Perry is a total idiot!!! Homosexuality and alcoholism

How this guy became governor, is way beyond me.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/06/12/us-usa-texas-perry-gay-idUSKBN0EN1CR20140612

Perry, who is seen as a possible presidential candidate in 2016, was forced to exit the 2012 Republican race after several gaffes including when he lost his train of thought during a debate and could not recall which government departments he wanted to abolish.

Bring it on Rick.

I'd love to see you derail again.

No need to justify his idiociy on any particular subject. He's an idiot all the way around.

I'm ashamed that Texans never figured that out, but we have idiots down here who just voted for Dan Patrick, too.

Just know...we're trying down here!!!

Where one person says something like, "If plants like water so much how come they don't grow out of the toilets?" and then gets high-fived by another idiocrat citizen.

Idiocrats have the mentality of 5 year old Kindergardners, snickering gleefully over any references to underpants and anything in them. It's age appropriate for real kids as my Kindergarden teacher mom told me once. But for grown-ups not so much.

... but you have to be wary of idiots who think they are clever. Perry reminds me of the prototype employee whose performance is horrible and who effs up every task he is given, but is supremely confident in himself. Everyone's worked with THAT guy.
