Rick Perry is Toast. Couldn't name three government agencies he wanted to shut down.
This came after the claim that he would shut down three agencies...education, commerce, and uhhh.....uhhh

Harwood: can you name three gvmnt agencies

Perry: uhhh education, commerce, (look at notes) uhhh, nope. I can't. Oops.

Hahahahhaa. Epic fail.

6. Hahaha. That was hilarious. Looked to Paul, then at his notes, then at his notes harder, then "nope.
I can't. Oops." Oops sounded almost like a question.

Geezus this is painful.

3. No ed. department means no more NCLB and no more RTT right?
Maybe this should be looked at.

8. That was hard to watch. Man.
I just posted a thread about that, then saw yours.

That had to be the end of his campaign there.

Wow.

10. I agree. Even the moderators appeared shocked and almost feeling sorry. Harwood asking if
he really couldn't name three agencies. Oh man.

11. Nail just met coffin.
I'd suggest Perry get a brain scan to look for organic problems, but I doubt anything, haha, would show up.

17. On what planet is "Commerce" an agency?
The thing is, none of them can tell you where they'll yank any significant money. They really can't. They're just enjoying their group tantrum and name-calling. It's empty.

29. You guys are "misunderestimating"
The Repuke party. They are just as dumb as him, so they probably see nothing wrong with this. They would be nervous too. LOL!
