There really isn’t much going on today, is there? There hasn’t been much going on for days. It’s a black hole. It’s the steps before the gallows. We’re all just waiting to be informed that we’ve voted for one old white dude over the other old white dude and now he shall face down Barack Obama and his scrunchie-wearing harpy Debbie Wasserman Schultz. And we shall watch them be bloodied and we shall watch our own hopes fade into the distance.
I’m not a happy person right now, if you can’t tell. At any rate, while we still have opportunities to make fun of Rick Perry, we should take them, because after next week, they’ll be gone forever. Which is why there is no reason why we shouldn’t mention that Rick Perry commands an army of 20,000 troops and he’s not afraid to use them, America.
Got that, America. He commands an army.
In sheer numbers, though, a 20K man army isn’t all that impressive. It’s about the same standing army as Burundi, which may or may not be ruled by a band of roving primates. It’s also about the same size as the army of Denmark, which is, quite frankly, the standing army of Denmark. But he could defeat them, America. And with your help, he will.
What’s with the fake Marine uniform at 0:08? If you’re going to fake a military uniform, at least get the ribbons right so it isn’t so obvious.
To be fair to Perry: He’s pointing out that he has executive experience that parallels that of the office for which he’s running; as governor of one of the largest and most important states, his responsibilities mirror that of POTUS, albeit in microcosm.
CiC of 20,000 troops is about 20,000 more than Senator Obama could have claimed, and it shows.
It’s a damned shame that the hot Texas sun has apparently dried and shriveled Perry’s brain into a hard little grey raisin, because he was the only actual conservative (other than the certifiably insane Bachmann) that ever had a real shot.
Go Romney. Woo hoo.
If someone had told me in 2006 that within the next six years I’d first vote for McCain, and then for Romney, for POTUS, I would have laughed at them. Shit, I actually contributed money to McCain’s campaign. Just thinking about that makes me want to throw up.
