Rick Perry: Funny or Not?

Published on November 10, 2011 by name team · No Comments

Well, unless you’ve been living in the proverbial cave, or just spent the day watching Law & Order reruns, you’re about sick of the Rick Perry jokes. And we don’t have any – just a couple of items from Perry’s damage control evening:

The Texas governor talked to Greta Van Susteren on Fox News about his latest oops! moment. Greta asked him what his wife said. Perry said that all she said was “I love you.” Van Susteren was a bit incredulous and marveled that Anita Perry didn’t tease him. Rick Perry said she knew better. Indeed.

Later, Rick Perry appeared on David Letterman, who said ” “It’s nice to see a guy running for President whose only groping for words.”

Perry came out to give the Top 10 Rick Perry Excuses

10. Actually there were three reasons I messed up last night:
(1) the nerves; (2) the headache; and (3) uh… uh… oops!
(Well, everyone else and their mother has done this one, so why not?)

9. I don’t know what you’re talking about — I think things went well.

8. I was up late last night watching “Dancing with the Stars.”

7. I thought the debate was tonight.

6. Hey, listen — you try concentrating with Mitt Romney smiling at you.
That is one handsome dude!

5. Uh … El Nino.

4. I had a 5-hour energy drink 6 hours before the debate.

3. I really hoped it would get me on my favorite talk show but
instead I ended up here.

2. I wanted to help take the heat off my buddy, Herman Cain.

1. I just learned Justin Bieber is my father.

So how bad do you feel for Perry now?

We’re surprised he didn’t stand on his head, too.
