Perry makes it an even ten

Half-wit former republican Governor of Texas Rick Perry became the tenth announced republican candidate for the Presidency in 2016--which seemed to elicit plenty of chuckles from pundits far and wide.

Perry is best known for threatening to secede from the union, not being able to remember the three--count 'em, a whole three--government agencies he was going to abolish upon his ascendancy to the Presidency in January of 2013 during a republican debate, and for donning a pair of black-rimmed eyeglasses in the hope that we'd forget that he was an idiot (and good luck with that).  Perry also thinks just about everything is unconstitutional (Social Security, Medicare, Clean Air Laws, Federal Health Programs) and is the only candidate in either party who is currently under indictment (for abuse of office).

And yet all you really need to know is that the last time we elected a half-wit Governor of Texas to the Presidency we ended up with the worst terrorist attack in U.S. history, two costly and failed wars, an incompetent response to a hurricane that left over a thousand dead and thousands more homeless, and the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression.

Pretty sure if by some miracle Perry actually wins the republican nomination the Democratic Party would spend the last few months of the campaign reminding Americans again and again that just because your head can fit into a ten gallon hat doesn't mean you have brains to match.

Peace,
