7 Signs Rick Perry Might Be An Actual Comic Book Villain



7 Signs Rick Perry Might Be An Actual Comic Book Villain
Every super hero needs an arch nemesis. Batman has the Joker, Wonder Woman has Cheetah; the badder the bad guy, the gooder the good guy looks. That's why we've got to hand it to Rick Perry — his cartoonish villainy made Wendy Davis look extra-heroic. But is Rick Perry too good at being a bad? Here's why I'm starting to think he's an actual comic book villain made flesh.

He's a prominent member of a scary religious culty organization who often speaks at rallies for zealots.
Rick Perry is a religious nut who is tight with the leaders of IHOP (that ultracreepy Christian evangelical organization) and delivered a 13-minute prayerspeech at The Response, a 2011 megachurch rally so huge it was held in a stadium. This week, he spoke at the National Right to Life conference. Never is Rick Perry scarier than when he gets behind the podium. Think Lex Luther speaking to Lexcorp shareholders. Think Bane in prison. But, uh, with a lobotomy.
