I’m ok with this. I’ve been ok with every single choice of Trump’s. He’s been very methodical and thoughtful.

This is the department that Perry couldn’t remember in one of the debates.

Yep, never thought Perry was up to sitting in the big chair, but this suits him. Wasn’t DoE one of the agencies he wanted to eliminate? Well, here his chance!

Also, Energy controls the nukes and I like having a Governor in charge.

He was on serious meds recovering from back surgery.

A mistake to run while weak , but he’s pretty good in the saddle

“Also, Energy controls the nukes and I like having a Governor in charge.”

Before the election, there was a lot of talk about our political class being uniformly corrupt and depraved.

Now people are happy to see these corrupt, depraved scoundrels appointed to high office.

Abbott in the Tx governorship, Perry in the energy dept, Cruz in the Scotus.

Things will break free

Nice cheap shot at Rick Perry. Suppose now you prove your allegation that he’s “uniformly corrupt and depraved” or a scoundrel.

Most of us have considered him to be a solid conservative Governor who just wasn’t our first choice for President. As I said.

Perry will be quite good at Energy. A very good pick.

What qualifications and accomplishment do you have to belittle Governor Perry? I think he will make a great energy secretary. Texas leads the way in energy production. Number 1 in the country producing 20.2% of the country’s energy.

“Suppose now you prove your allegation that he’s “uniformly corrupt and depraved” or a scoundrel.”

Suppose you understand what you read. It is our political class that is “uniformly corrupt and depraved.” That is perhaps the most important fact revealed by Trump’s campaign.

“Most of us have considered him to be a solid conservative Governor who just wasn’t our first choice for President.”

A large number of Republicans who had been thought to be solid conservatives were revealed in their iniquity during this campaign. There is no longer any justification for faith in any member of our irredeemably corrupt and depraved political class.

If you are still willing to go to bat for one of them, well, I’m speechless.
