I'm waiting for a White House response to 'Turkey should be thrown out of NATO'

[denem]

The man who said it? Rick Perry. The rationale - the Turkish Government are Islamic Terrorists or at least, support 'anti-Isreal' Terrorists. The context, Turkey has been critical of Israel and downgraded diplomatic relations since Turkish nationals were shot dead on a boat headed for Gaza.

The truth: Turkey asked for a formal apology for the deaths of their citizens. Bibi's cabinet were split and could not come up with an agreed appropriate form of words before the deadline set by Turkey.

Up to date: Turkey is trying to broker an understanding between Israel and Hamas.

My take: When SC is over, get the hell out you ignorant box of rocks. Why in heaven's name should the State Department have to respond every time some GOP clown throws out more of Teh Crazy.

1. Will Perry invade Turkey before or after he's done re-invading Iraq?

[baldguy]

4. No, next up is Iran.

Then Turkey. Then Indonesia.

Then he'll nuke Mecca.

6. He'll invade that hunting camp in Texas

He can't invade another country without being elected to something. He's sitting at the Republican "kids' table" along with Bachmann, Palin, Paul, etc.

I'm sure the Republican PTB are trying to get him to drop out.

2. I am still waiting for a response from the White House

for the statement made by the guy standing on a soapbox on the corner who claims President Obama is a illegal alien from Mars!

Rick Perry is a Governor wannabe soon to be ex-Presidential candidate. Why would the White House need to fuel his delusions?

3. I understand there has been some difficulty summoning the Martian ambassador,

but. as a last resort, an all frequency statement from Area 51 is being considered.

Turkish newspaper headlines: Men are from Mars and Turkey will be expelled from NATO.

5. I'm waiting for Perry to fade into history...

so that the White House will have fewer idiotic statements it is asked to repond to.
