    Perry discusses view of homosexuality

    Well, it looks like he's been coached somewhat, because he uses the term "genetic coding" but his faux pas was likening it to alcoholism. That's where he went sideways. People don't need to drink alcohol. They need to drink something to keep hydrated. On the other hand, people were wired to be sexual and it's almost a primal need. Cavemen and women had sex, and some probably had sex with their own gender. Now that really seems primal! Cavemen and women looked for sources of water because they needed to drink. They did not drink alcohol, AFAIK.

    The article mentions 'potential future GOP candidate' and this is scary. But, I don't think he has a chance at the White House because he never had much upstairs to begin with and, as for his looks, which I'm sure he used to his advantage 15 years ago, those won't be a calling card at this point. Of course, getting up in years does happen to everyone. I never realized what a dunce he was until he was in the debates. He wiped out fairly early. But I suppose they nicknamed him "Scary Perry" long before the last Presidential race.

    Honestly, I'm not sure if I'd rather have Abbott or Perry as governor. Ironically, the best governor in recent memory was Bush. He was, relatively speaking, a bipartisan player as governor, but on the election trail to president he was pushed heavily to the right by the campaign.

    Rick Perry's debate performances, while hilarious and scary at the same time, are representative of the typical Republican base voter. He'll never win a national election if he ever does run again, and he's an example of how the GOP is being held hostage by the base, the minority of its membership.

    I recall that speech in New Hampshire, where he'd had a few Martinis, and then taken pain pills, and was all high/giggly. That was pretty funny!

    My God, and the debates. I love when he was asked which three branches of the government he'd cut, but could only come up with two...also very funny.

    Oh, and then that ranch with the embarrassing name...

    Overall, he'd be a real barrel of laughs, as a candidate, so I'd love to see him run, because he'd be easy to defeat.

    It was so funny that his ratings plummeted right after that. See and hear link:

    Perry Stumbles on Agencies He'd Eliminate - YouTube

    Like the saying goes "no second chances to make a first impression." That applies here if that was your window to forming a first impression of Rick Perry.

    Rumors about Rick Perry's homosexuality or bisexuality have been making the rounds in Austin since the 1980s and rumors do not persist that long unless there is something to them.

    This ode to Rick Perry is just too damn funny, I had to post it!


    Strange Bed Fellows in Texas in 2004

    A Texas RINO Governor named Rick Perry
    Got busted bedding his State Secretary.
    His wife couldn’t handle
    The thought of a scandal
    Like Idaho’s “wide stance” Senator Larry!

    Perry likes to pray, and talk about straight Texas Honor
    But his wife caught him with Secretary of State Geoff Connor.
    His wife felt disgraced
    That she’d been displaced
    ‘Cause Rick spent way more time off her than on her!

    Soon after the sordid tale hit he press
    The Bilderburgers stepped in to suppress
    All these gay Perry rumors
    Which are electoral tumors
    So they brought in “The Rove” for finesse.

    Karl issued an immediate repudiation
    And arranged Goeff Connor’s resignation
    ‘Cause the Bilderburg’s goal
    Of a Perry Presidential role
    Won’t be blocked by Rick’s back door infatuation.

    When Perry prays, he’s only playin’ you for a fool
    For he only practices the top half of the Golden Rule.
    He now awaits his chance
    To “widen out” his stance
    And be President, offering to push in America’s stool! :grin:
