Perry Brain Freeze May End Campaign.Political pundits are calling the presidential campaign of Texas governor Rick Perry dead in the water after the candidate suffered an excruciating brain freeze while trying to remember which federal departments he would cut during a televised debate on Wednesday night.While answering a question about the federal tax code, Perry, stealing from fellow Texan Ron Paul's Restore America Plan, announced that he would eliminate three agencies."And I'll tell ya," Perry said, turning to Paul, who was standing next to him on stage."It's three agencies of government when I get there that are gone. Commerce, education and, uh.... what's the third one there..." a suddenly hapless Perry turned to the audience after trying to stare down the Texas congressman. Paul let Perry hang himself, mocking him by saying, "you mean five..." a reference to Paul's original plan to cut five federal agencies.
@conflictedllo - I agree. However, If we dismantel the Federal Board of Education, states will fail to GET funding and even LESS people will fight for states to receive adequate funding, which we already don't receive.

@amskiurts Any federal funds for education should all be given to the states to use.

@983215ljhlkadbspig6y Winging it in front of the world you mean. America has allies all around the world and is does the USA no credit to put people like Perry, Palin and GW Bush up there as credible people to hold the most important office in the world.
You are not selecting and anchor for Fox News where looks and a good voice are the only pre-requisites.
I feel bad for him but I don't feel bad for the "brains trust" who got together and said "Perry, now that's a guy we can use".

See him looking at Ron Paul like he was the architect behind these ideas, when he is nothing more than the dumb jock kid in school who copied off the smart kids and then the whole thing blows up in his face, and it's like the teacher just asked him to explain his answer to the whole class and he ends up looking back at the smart kid and gives him the totally embarrased "help me out here" look. What a joke. Ron Paul is a giant and they are nothing but NWO bugs to be crushed by the freedom boot!!

Cain down, Perry Down so now its time to push the slime ball Newt that will sell the country to the highest bidder. Romney is the biggest flip-flopper, only one person up on that stage has consistently been right about everything and has put his money where his mouth is every single time and keeps on getting it right. Honesty, Integrity, Consistency, freedom, Constitution...Ron Paul!!!
