This guy is very much in over his head.

Although one would've thought the same about Bush after his debates.

Lord knows.

is that what we were doing?

Because I'm a little unclear on how Iran can move "back in" to a place where they "were not".

"Dear Rick Perry: We don’t want our troops in Iraq. We don’t think President Obama was too quick to get them out. We think he was too slow. We don’t want to go back into Iraq militarily. We don’t care if Iraq’s Shiites like Iran’s Shiites and we don’t think that 18-year-old young men from Alabama and Louisiana with guns can convince them not to. And, the Iraqis don’t want them there. President Obama did not err in his negotiations. There is *no* majority in the Iraqi parliament that would vote for having US troops on Iraqi soil."

doesn't tell you that the man is a couple of tacos short of a combination platter, nothing will.

"I think we start talking with the Iraqi individuals there, the idea that we allow the Iranians to come back in to Iraq and take over that country, with all of the treasure, both in blood and money that we have spent in Iraq, because this president wants to kowtow to his liberal leftist base."

It makes no sense. It's a disjointed collection of half-formed catchphrases. Ol' Gov. Goodhair is just a-ramblin'.

A different type of experimental meds, maybe?
