Rick Perry does it again....

Rick Perry does it again....
http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/arch...picks=true

Quote:The Texas governor who drew national attention for his "oops" moment during the last GOP presidential primary has been thrust back into the national spotlight, thanks to the 11-hour filibuster of Texas State Senator Wendy Davis. And so has his awkward way with language.
The fact is, who are we to say that children born into the worst of circumstances can't grow to live successful lives?" Perry asked Thursday in a speech before the 43rd annual National Right to Life Convention in Dallas. "In fact, even the woman who filibustered the Senate the other day was born into difficult circumstances.
She was the daughter of a single woman. She was a teenage mother herself. She managed to eventually graduate from Harvard Law School and serve in the Texas senate," Perry continued. "It's just unfortunate that she hasn't learned from her own example that every life must be given a chance to realize its full potential and that every life matters."

It was classic mansplaining -- as Elyse Fradkin pithily summarized it on Twitter, "when a man explains to a woman how she should view the meaning of her own life experience."
"The louder they scream, the more we know we are getting something done," he said of the abortion-rights supporters.

Help me out here guys, I'm trying very hard to figure something out here.
Once again Capt. Oops! has stuck his foot in his mouth so deep as to tickle
his tonsils. This is the part I cannot figure out:
How does a man who goes through life with his head so firmly planted
up his ass stick his foot in his mouth over and over again?Thinking
“To terrify children with the image of hell, to consider women an inferior creation—is that good for the world?”
