Oh dear Lord, this is the best thing I’ve seen since ….. forever.

It appears that Pamela Geller at American Thinker has caught Rick Perry red-handed as a lover of Sharia Law, and by Sharia Law I mean “Good God, he’s gonna turn us into a Muslim country!”

Perry has been sucked into the propaganda vortex, and is now wielding his enormous power to influence changes in the schoolrooms and in the curricula to reflect a sharia compliant version of Islam. He is a friend of the Aga Khan, the multimillionaire head of the Ismailis, a Shi’ite sect of Islam that today proclaims its nonviolence but in ages past was the sect that gave rise to the Assassins. Perry has concluded at least two cooperation agreements between the state of Texas and the Ismailis, including a comprehensive program to feed children in Texas public schools and taqiyya nonsense about how Islam is a religion of peace.

Oh y’all this is going to be more fun than recess in heaven.

I’ll give one dollar cash American money to the first person who can convince Geller that Perry has close zombie ties, too.

I’m not saying that Rick Perry is a closet socialist who once tried to erase In God We Trust off every dollar bill in Texas  while singing Look For The Union Label on May Day.  I’m not saying that.  But, you might ask everybody you know if they’ve heard that.

Thanks to Kewalo for the heads-up.

James Carville, I think it was, commented that Rick Perry is stupid and he talks a lot, qualities Carville likes in Republican candidates.

Rick Perry eats bullets for breakfast and then shoots off his mouth the rest of the day.  Yesterday, Rick said of the Federal Reserve —

“If this guy prints more money between now and the election,” Perry said, “I don’t know what y’all would do to him in Iowa, but we — we would treat him pretty ugly down in Texas. Printing more money to play politics at this particular time in American history is almost treacherous — or treasonous in my opinion.”

I’m from Texas so I do not see that as a physical threat.  Hell, we threaten to knock people upside the head all the time but it doesn’t mean a damn thing.  I agree with Tony Fratto, former deputy press secretary to George Dubya, that Perry’s remarks are unpresidential and inappropriate.  But, it wasn’t a death threat, for Pete’s sake. “Be still so I can laser sight you,” now that’s a threat.

However, the part about him mixing up treacherous and treasonous – that’s criminal.  It’s also a teaser of much upcoming linguistic fun.

So many of you sent me this picture that I felt the need to use it now before I forget.  Cute, ain’t it?

Dr. Gary and I have been exchanging emails all afternoon trying to tie down a story we both recall about Rick Perry but can’t find the source.

When Perry ran for agricultural commissioner against Jim Hightower he claimed that Hightower had visited the home of Jane Fonda. When pressed for proof he finally said that Hightower had visited Los Angeles and that Los Angeles was the home of Jane Fonda.

We thought maybe it was in the book.  (In Texas, when somebody is an expert, we say they “wrote the book on it.”  Dr. Gary really did write the book on it.)  It’s not, probably due to some ignorant Yankee editor.

Now we’re wondering if we read about it in one of Molly Ivins books.

Anybody recall?

Andrew Sullivan got it right.

And we’re gonna talk about Twitter for a minute.  I have a Twitter account (crabbait) but rarely use it.  However, I might start ….

Lord, I know how exciting that is!  I was once in the same bathroom Bill Clinton once was.  No wait, that’s not right.  That couldn’t be right.  Right?

Somebody break it to the Gov that Bernie Sanders was also on that air wave.

Also, if you’re on Twitter, follow Rick Perry Facts.  It’s a damn hoot.

And speaking of Bill Clinton, check this out:

Speaking at a fire fighter’s conference in midtown Manhattan this morning, Clinton said, “I got tickled by watching Governor Perry announce for governor, for president. He’s a good looking rascal.”

The audience — members of the International Association of Fire Fighters from across the United States and Canada — laughed.

Clinton, dressed in a dark suit and gray tie, continued his riff on Perry — who officially announced his presidential campaign on Saturday.

“And he’s saying ‘Oh, I’m going to Washington to make sure that the federal government stays as far away from you as possible –while I ride on Air Force One and that Marine One helicopter and go to Camp David and travel around the world and have a good time.’ I mean, this is crazy.”

He’s still the Big Dog.

And, lastly, our Texas friend and occasional commenter here, Harold Cook, will be on MSNBC on Big Ed’s Show tonight, no doubt wearing a really bad tie.

Thanks to David and Laura for some of this stuff.

They did a study.  Seriously, they did.  And discovered the astounding and shocking fact that:

Macho Guys More Likely to Get Killed

People do stupid things all the time and they do them in all geographic regions, but as any regular viewer of Comedy Central’s “Tosh 2.0” can tell you, there does seem to be an uncanny correlation between certain regions of the country and the kind of risk-taking behavior that could get you seriously hurt or even killed.

That’s the premise of a new study out today in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science. The three authors, all from the University of Oklahoma, found that states with a “culture of honor” –- in the South, and the West, mainly — also have higher rates of accidental death for white males: 42 per 100,000 compared to 36.8 per 100,000 in non “honor” states.

As someone from the “Hold my beer and watch this, Bubba” State, I can testify that more men have been killed in tractor pulls than in yacht racing.

And if you really want to waste some research dollars, study the correlation between IQ and doing stoopid stuff.  I have noticed that they are sometimes related.

Sarah Palin dusted off the bus and began her Loudest Family Vacation Ever tour again.

She went to Ronald Reagan’s birthplace and tried to write “Sarah Was Here” over the fact that Reagan raised taxes 7 times.

She then went to the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, where she posed for pictures and asked, “Who’s the dude in the he-man beard?”

Y’all, she’s just gotta run for President.  I’m getting tired of picking on Rick Perry.
