Other amusing bits from the debate:

Cain apparently thinks "think of all the women I didn't molest" is a perfectly valid defense. Actual quote:

"For every person who'd come forward with a false accusation,there are thousands who will say 'I never saw that from Herman Cain.' "

He also referred to Pelosi as "Princess."

Yes, of course, he actually in reality didn't know how many states there were

He actually started with 50 and counted backwards. He subtracted Alaska, Hawaii, and the "1 other state" he hadn't visited yet.

Your boy Herman Cain had his hand up some woman's skirt while listening to the Pokemon soundtrack at the time

Kinda like forgetting which of the 57 states you are in. I still LMAO over that one. Heinz used to advertize 57 varieties on their ketchup labels. Obama-the ketchup kid.



I take it you have NEVER EVER made a mistake in your whole life right? Obama is ONLY human you know, just like you, me, and every other person living on this planet........so perry made a f***ing mistake......let's try something new and radical when it comes to voting for who we want as our president......all those Americans, who are mistake proof, and have NEVER EVER made a mistake in their entire life......wins the job as president of the United States of America! Ok now every American please stand and put your hand up high, if you are PERFECT and mistake proof. The American who can honestly say "i've never made a mistake".....gets to be our US president for LIFE!!! It's that simple folks......

Then there wouldn't be enough left to refill my prescription.....and what I think he should really do is.......try a refresher course in whatever it is that he needs help with. Anyone of us can forget the most basic of political issues we were taught in a political course and or class. But it just shocks the hell out of me when these political leaders we've elected, makes a simple common HUMAN ERROR, and they are BASHED about it........"NEWS FLASH" American voters, there is NO perfection in humans!!!! And you can look high and low to find a perfect human all you want, but you will either die trying, or go INSANE! That is all.....PEACE!!! Happy Friday! Go HUG a Vet...

This is one of the leading candidates for the election as President of the United States.

He was on a national stage, on national TV, talking about which 3 of his 15 direct subordinates he would get rid of.

The executive branch of the US government consists basically of the President and the 15 Cabinet departments that he is the chief executive of. The bulk of the President's job is to effectively run these 15 executive agencies.

He was talking about which of these major branches of his own government he would get rid of. And he didn't even know. He couldn't remember which of his 15 agencies he would completely cut off. The heads of these departments are his absolute senior staff. These are the people, and the agencies, who actually run the country. And he couldn't remember which he wanted to completely eradicate.

He gave the appearance of being an idiot and not having given much, if any, thought to how he was going to dramatically alter his branch of the federal government.


All the reasons you mention, plus his other flubs in past speeches and debates are why Perry is steadily falling in the polls. In my opinion, Perry biggest problem was his mostly unplanned entry into the race. Running for president takes a ton of preparation since you will be asked about every single issue facing the country.

This is partially why Romney will probably be the eventual nominee. He has been preparing for this since the last election.

Here's what Perry & Paul would really cut doing away with 3 to 5 agencies.

And once again, the American media is concerned with something extremely trivial and unimportant in any way or form. Instead of focusing on things like the economy, wars, climate change, we all choose to sit around and laugh at some politician who forgot what he was going to say. Facepalm. Face-f***ing-palm.


Well what do you expect? It gives us the chance to return to our base mental states and root for our side while deriding the other. I bet there's similar situations in Lebanon too. Why whouldn't there be? You guys are human too, after all.

I'm still stunned that Herman Cain is the front runner. I just don't get that. Herman Cain is an absolute joke. Every time he opens his mouth, utter ridiculousness inevitably comes tumbling out. I watch Herman Cain for pure entertainment value. How is it that voters think he is their best shot??


They don't. Romney is still the front runner, and unless something very drastic happens, he'll be the Republican candidate.

We've got the same in Lebanon, no doubt. But even though it's a warm and fuzzy environment, isn't it also quite pathetic that we think of it as such? Why must we pluck the poisonous fruit just because it is ripe? Perry's little mistake on stage says absolutely nothing about him or about his potential value as a president.
