The Republican gouvenour of Texas and a candidate for the Republican nomination for the presidential election in 2012.
He believes that you can pray away forest fires and calls the recession a punishment from God. According to him, the problems facing America and the state of Texas are to great to be solved by humans, so he got 30.000 people together in a big sports stadium to pray for the future...instead of, you know, doing something about the issues.
The next few days, the Dow Jones plummeted. God must really hate Rick Perry.
Executions give him a big ol' boner. 234 on them since he's been govenour.
Of course, he is a against abortion and homosexuality for no other reason than "Jesus said it's wrong". He's against social security aswell, calling it an "illegal Ponzi scheme".
In most Western countries, nobody would take this idiot seriously and would probably be labeled a fascist, but in America he is a serious candidate for the Rep. nomination for presidency. Thank you, Fox News and stupid people. Thank you.

George W. Bush on steroids. Take all the bad things about Bush and amplify by 10 and you have Rick Perry.
Utters "Amurica!" and "Freedum!" in every sentence instead of every other sentence.
Even more hawkish - carries a gun with him at all times, and is known to use it on small animals that get too close.
Greater religious fanaticism - In April of 2011, as governor of Texas, held an "official" prayer rally for rain in his drought-stricken state. Let's see how that worked out for him: in April only 60% of Texas was under severe drought according to the UNL drought monitor. As of September 20, 99% of the state is under severe drought with 85% under exceptional drought. In other words, a true Texas miracle. Also believes creationism should be taught in public schools.
Instead of just privatizing social security, wants to completely abolish it, so grandma is just supposed to starve I guess.
Even greater hypocrisy - as governor of Texas, threatened to secede from the U.S. over the passage of the stimulus act. He then took $17.4 billion in funds made available by the stimulus act to help plug his state's ballooning budget deficit and create most of the jobs he brags about creating. Yet, he declined $500 million in funds to help educate youth in Texas.
Even less qualified - graduated from Texas A&M with a 2.22 GPA, earning a C in U.S. history and a D in economics. Interestingly he got an A in world military systems. Better watch your ass Iran.

If you thought Bush was a good president, or you are a masochist, vote Rick Perry. For the other 80% of us, there is sanity.

You'd think Americans would learn from their previous mistakes, but that's asking too much isn't it?

A slang term for coitus interruptus aka the "pull out and pray". Pull and Pray method. Attributed to the fact that Rick Perry has announced that he is pulling out of the Republican Primary candidate race and is going home to pray about it.
Is she on birth-control? Nope, we Rick Perry!

1. The reason I lose hope for our world.
2. Someone who steals taxpayers' money in order to get elected.
3. A Texas Republican....need I say more?

Rick Perry is actually taken SERIOUSLY by a large amount of people. I think I want to curl up and die. Or get abducted by aliens.
