Rick Perry
Bless his heart, Rick Perry is trying to get a pardon from the man who is going to be in prison before he is.
Rick went all Old Testament over Donald Trump this weekend and slobbered some of the most prayerful pile of poop seen anywhere since the last time Rick Perry needed divine intervention to fix some mess he got involved in while trying to play way above his IQ level.
Trump has been described as the “chosen one” by his secretary of energy, Rick Perry.
In the preview of an interview shown on Fox News on Sunday night, the adviser, who has drawn scrutiny for his role in the Ukraine scandal, also compared the US president to a number of biblical kings.
“God’s used imperfect people all through history,” Mr Perry told the broadcaster. “King David wasn’t perfect, Saul wasn’t perfect, Solomon wasn’t perfect.”
Well, yeah, nobody’s perfect but I don’t think any of them paid off a hooker. And Saul had the good grace to fall on his sword.
Here’s the part you’re gonna love —
He revealed that he gave Mr Trump “a little one-pager on those Old Testament kings about a month ago”.
So now you have to ponder if Perry gave Trump a one-pager because Trump is too dumb to understand anything bigger than that or because that’s all Rick’s crayola would write.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
Key to understanding the Ukraine position of this maladministration would be to understand #1 what is in it for Putin and #2 what is in it for IQ4.5. In language even a Republicon should be able to understand: Donnie is busily selling out the Ukraine to line his own pockets, while serving Putin’s military interests. Also see Kurt Volker and his ties to Raytheon. There is not one lousy altruistic bone in this entire maladministration.
1Careful Rick, Imagine Fiona Hill as Judith cutting off the head of Holofernes… You being Holofernes of course.

2Lol ‘Pardon me please!’ Perry just confirmed what we already know, that Conservatives worship a hateful, punishing, vengeful god.
3King Solomon? Saul?
4When I think of Trump and a scripture in the Bible, a one man Sodom & Gomorrah comes to mind. It’s doubtful all the comparisons would fit on a single sheet of paper though.
Be real nice if pRick Perry is on Parnas’ tapes along with the rest of them. Those tapes, supposedly in the Intel Cmte hands now, may seal this deal; and entangle Nunes and a few others.
Pelosi, Schiff and Democrats need to slow down the impeachment process a little, and start including some of the other pieces that are shaking out, with thorough investigations. It’s a target-rich environment, choose wisely.
5Little to nothing is going to be publicly noticed or effective in December, when most ‘short attention span’ ‘Muricans are completely distracted by the holidays.
No need to rush this into the Senate before January, where it will certainly quickly die. Drag it out a bit, let it fester and pustulate in public a while, well into Spring.
The extended public exposure of Republikan corruption is all that’s available, the Senate and much of the judiciary are utterly corrupted now.
Wonder if Mr. Perry is reading the King James Bible as annotated by the Texas Board of Education.
6Will Perry cover the New Testament this semester? Because when I think of trump, the king who comes to mind is Herod, the killer of children.
7As if Rick would know “chosen” even if it but him on the gluteus maximus.
8Early warning!
All the Nunes news you can stomach now so you won’t have to push away from the thanksgiving table with acid reflux later this week.

9I’ve wondered about the evangelical support for Trump since his election. Now with the Kanye West/Joel Olsteen charade and now “Goodhair” Perry’s profound declaration of faith in the “The Great One”, I understand…..These folks are wacko and their followers are of similar nature. The Christian Taliban are in firm control of the GOP.
10I swore to God JJ that all these Trupers like Perry still play with crayons!
11If Dotard is chosen by God, it can only be as the Antichrist…
12Oh Rick, please tell me you meant to compare Trump to King Ahab, not Solomon. Also, last time I checked, we don’t have kings here, and God told the Israelites in the Bible that they wouldn’t like having a king either!
13Hmmm, Q. what does the Trump base, the Republican base and Evangelical base all have in common?
A. White Supremacy
To justify your hateful, bigoted white supremacy you’ll need a god.
14All this pandering for the sake of evengelical votes. When will these people understand they are being played?
15Perry and the rest of the so-called “Religious Right’ (which was never religious and never, ever did anything that was right) quote from a book that:
“You believe in a book that has talking animals, wizards, witches, demons, sticks turning into snakes, burning bushes, food falling from the sky, people walking on water, and all sorts of magical, absurd and primitive stories, and you say that we are the ones that need help?”
― Mark Twain
16Fred Farklestone @16,
Clements/Twain had a lot of cynical, satirical writings on Xtians and other religions.
I think he wrote a hysterically funny story about some low-level angels chattering away near St Peter’s gate while detailed to pitchfork the most pompous Xtians down the chute to that ‘other place’.
One of my favorite Mark Twain works is “Letters from the Earth”, a damned good send-up of the hypocrites [which may be what you’re reading and quoted]:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letters_from_the_Earth
“Content
17Letters from the Earth consists of a series of commentaries in essay and short story form. Many of these pieces express Twain’s discomfort with and disdain for Christianity, both as a theological position and a lifestyle. The title story consists of eleven letters written by the archangel Satan to archangels Gabriel and Michael,[2] about his observations on the curious proceedings of earthly life and the nature of Man’s religions. Other pieces in the book include a morality tale told as a bedtime discussion with Twain’s children, Susy and Clara, about a family of cats, and an essay explaining why an anaconda is morally superior to Man.”
