Rep. Lloyd Doggett: A ‘President’ Rick Perry Would Have Americans Praying -- to Survive

“Twenty-five states have lower unemployment than Texas does today. We have a tie with Mississippi on many things,” he said, but “we're tied with Mississippi for more minimum-wage jobs than anywhere in the United States.”

Doggett also decried Perry’s support for axing $4 billion from public education budgets and imposing a new corporate-style model for keeping state colleges and universities profitable.

“Under a Perry administration, we would see significantly more prayer across America,” he said. “People would be praying for our country to survive someone whose primary emphasis will be on right-wing ideological zealotry.”

7. I wonder which country God would tell him to invade

The previous Texas Chimp heard God's voice inside his head telling him to invade Iraq.
