why is Rick Perry able to make a hate speech ad without consequence

why is Rick Perry still running for president

why is Rick Perry

I’ve been thinking about this too. I want to do my own “Rick Perry” ad and say something like, “You know there’s something wrong with this country when a person can go on national television to spew hatred and disrespect for others while still being considered as a legitimate candidate for the presidency.”

Presidential candidate Rick Perry of Texas, who continually touts his record in Texas for taking away his citizens’ rights to sue for harms done to them (“tort reform” measures like capping awards for medical malpractice and other personal injuries), seems to think it is OK to sue the Commonwealth of Virginia . Mr. Perry found Virginia’s requirement that a Presidential candidate obtain 10,000 signatures before being placed on a primary ballot to be too “onerous” and “problematic”

omfipu what a frikkin child

Even if he weren’t a homophobic religious lunatic bigoted douchenozzle I wouldn’t want him to be president.

Republicans can’t do anything for the U.S. That’s their entire platform: The belief that government never does anything right, therefore, it shouldn’t do anything. It reminds me of when I was in 2nd grade and I hurt my little sister when trying out some rad WWF-style wrestling moves. Rather than changing what games were OK to play with a girl three years younger than me, I declared I’d never play with her again. Of course, the difference between me and every Republican is that I GREW THE FUCK UP.

Bolded for emphasis.  These are trufax.

A ‘War On Birth Control’

These cuts are less about saving money and more about abortion and contraception. Evangelicals and Tea Party supporters are ascendant in Texas and Gov. Perry is their champion. These cuts are evidence of their political power as well.

The goal is to get government money out of the abortion process and if contraceptive services have to suffer a bit of collateral damage in the process, so be it. When The Texas Tribune asked state Rep. Wayne Christian (R-Nacogdoches), a supporter of the family planning cuts, if this was a war on birth control, he said “yes.”

“Well of course this is a war on birth control and abortions and everything, that’s what family planning is supposed to be about,” Christian said.

Family planning clinics are routinely referred to by many Texas Republican legislators as “abortion clinics” even though none of the 71 family planning clinics in the state that receive government funding provide abortions. Texas and federal law prohibits that, but most women’s health clinics will refer women or teens who want an abortion to a provider.

“They’re sitting here, referring women out to receive abortions,” Christian said in an interview with NPR. “Those are the clinics, including Planned Parenthood, we were targeting.”

Yeah, so basically, fuck everyone because we think we have the right to tell you what to do with your body.

These ignorant sexist self-righteous fucksticks make me wanna punch a wall.

Because I would pretend that the wall was all of their faces.

And I would punch it.

I really just can’t.  I can’t.  It’s gotten to the point where I just can’t with these willfully ignorant wastes of human flesh WHO DON’T EVEN HAVE UTERUSES.
