Parting is such sweet sorrow. Post your fond farewells to a DU beloved - Rick Perry

Oh and btw Rick

[KansDem]

1. From one Texas governor to another

[LynneSin]

2. I have friends from Texas who were hoping he would win

so they could unload him as governor.

Texas needs to stop sending their crapass governors to the White House, we're not here to clean up the mess Texas voters created (Although I do realize there are many liberals who tried hard to not make this happen).

My friend is from Houston, I told her they should try to encourage their mayor to run for Governor. I think she would be fabulous!

23. Happy and Sad

I am SO happy that Rick won't be the Republican nominee. Gleeful, in fact.

But so sad to think that he is still the governor of my beloved Texas. Thank you for acknowledging that there are many of us who tried hard to oust him as governor. We are up against wackos!

3. ¡Adios, cabrón!

We'll see how his Spanish is.

4. Two for the road

I didn't know who
on Earth could actually
be dumber than Bush.

10. As Perrys go, I liked Steve much better n/t

[deaniac21]

15. I liked Perry

[Cognitive_Resonance]

11. He can return to Texas to write his memoir (bring your own crayons). nt

[downwardly_mobile]

12. Well, I can say three good things about him: they don't call him Governor Goodhair for nothing.

He's always well-coiffed.

And, um, uh ... can't think of the third. The EPA? No, that's not it. Something to do with hair maybe?

Oops.

[broiles]

13. I have mixed feeling about this.

On the positive side, it saves Texas taxpayers $400 thou a month for his security. On the negative side he'll be back here.

[HappyMe]

14. Damn. There goes

all the fun & comedy gold.

My sympathies to the state of Texas. Please send along new Perry-isms c/o The Lounge.

[GoCubsGo]

16. Don't let the door hit you where the Good Lord split you, Ricky.

I won't miss him. It's like having Shit-for-Brains back. He sounds just like Dumbya, only more stupid.

[Inuca]

17. The OOOPS candidacy n/t

[Initech]

18. Um... Um... Someone help me out here!!

[Erose999]

19. Here's hoping he goes back to trying to sececede Texas from the Union. I wish him success in that

endeavor.

[HopeHoops]

20. If I post a full moon with the dangling junk, I'll get thrown off of DU, but that would be the post.

Bye asshole!! Have fun with your three favorite things, your gun, your beer, and your, uh, your, uh, your....

[REP]

21. Did he mean to bow out, or was he trying to order room service?

[progressoid]
