Okay, you guys remember when Rick Perry made a total jerk of himself by insulting Wendy Davis on a very personal level.  That was way back on June 26th that he said that.

So, today is July 7th and it took him that long to come up with this.

Speaking Sunday, Perry also addressed inflammatory comments he made last week about Davis’ own history as a teen mother. In the wake of Davis’ filibuster, Perry gave a speech saying it was “unfortunate” that Davis “hasn’t learned from her own example.”

“Those comments were meant to be a compliment to her,” Perry said on Sunday.

I know the man is slower than a sloth on a snail’s back but holy crap I could have come up with something better in two damn weeks.  Two weeks to come up with, “Well, duh, Bubba, I thought calling her names was complimentary.”  I think the word he was looking for is complementary, as in “free.”

He’s gonna want to be President.  So he can finish insulting every other woman in America.  For free.

Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
