Hell, Yes.
When the Republican Governor’s Association met and someone suggested that they change the way they do their Presidential debates, Governor Rick Perry shouted, “Hell, yeah.”
He had three good reasons for wanting the change the process:
1. It would be much more exciting if we found out that the Republican was an idiot during actual Presidential debates.
2. It’s hard to remember what your speechwriters tell you to say.
3. Uh, just a minute, uh, did I mention that it’s hard to remember? I did?, okay, uh ….
Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
I apologize to all of you non-Texans for having to watch Rick Perry in public. I also apologize ahead of time for y’all having to put up with Ted Cruz who is nuttier than a fruitcake. My friend in Maine said i lived in the United States of Nueces (nutty/nutshell). I’m so sorry. Maybe we should start sharing recipes for Cruz Cakes or Cruz Cookies for the holidays.
1Perry must have thought that meant he wouldn’t even have to remember thing one and thing two.
2p.s. I also really think that Abbott and Perry got a twofer on their glasses. Honestly.
3I keep wondering if Perry drinks Brain-Drano.
4I am having a hard time believing that Perry thinks that he can run for POTUS. He is living in a different or alternative universe compared to the people who watched his debate performance
5@Marge Wood – You have a wonderful idea, just in time for the holidays. Texas Politician Fruitcake – – chock full of more nuts & fruit than any other fruitcake in the 50 states. Ingredients: Rick “Pecan” Perry, Teddy “Cashew” Cruz, Louie “Cherries Glace” Gohmert…
6Just discovered your blog and it has already made my day. I don’t want to post the link here, but check my cover story in Houston Press this week about Kinky Friedman’s run for Ag Commissioner. Some pungent comments on Gov. Good Hair. Keep up the good work, fight the good fight. William Michael Smith
7Hey Rick, I bet we could sell those for fund-raisers. We could have Texas shaped labels on them and endorsements by different candidates. I can see those nice shiny labels already… And the flavor is, well, nutty. And is Kinky running and messing up the elections AGAIN? Aargh.
You know what else I betcha would be a nifty fund-raiser? Get candidates or somebody like Juanita Jean and Thelma, her sidekick, reading these jewels on CDs or DVDs or have links for listening to them….

We can always hope,but I’m willing to sacrifice a bunch of these nuts if it helps deserving folks live longer. Texas wouldn’t miss ’em,would they?
