New Rick Perry Ad Warns Obama Letting Gays Rob Children of Christmas

by Kirsten Boyd Johnson  

Only a genius with an IQ of 500 like Rick Perry could finally fit the puzzle pieces together in what can be called the great Da Vinci Code riddle of our time: why did Barack Obama really want to allow gays to openly serve in the military? So that “our kids can’t openly celebrate Christmas” is Rick Perry’s somewhat counter-intuitive solution to this mystery according to his new campaign ad, but then again, special relativity is sort of counter-intuitive too, isn’t it? Oh, Rick Perry, don’t kid. We all know the reason you figured it out so fast is because you also hate Christmas. Incriminating evidence after the jump!

Check this out, from 2003:

Hey, did you know we just belatedly discovered that RickPerry.com redirects to RonPaul2012.com? And that RickPerryIsGay.com is as of yet “not occupied?” You learn something new every day! [YouTube/ Photo via Wonkette operative "Mack S."]

Happy Hollidays? Gay.
Fascism? Christianity!

Texans do love a good queer bashing at his hunting ranch N*ggerhead. Wonder what kind of bleach he uses on his sheets?

chascates December 7, 2011 at 5:51 pm

The longtime rumor around Austin is that the good-haired guv is actually bisexual. In the current GOP circus all the candidates must be to the far right of even GW Bush so gays, immigrants, unemployed, and non-Christians are openly held to be the downfall of our great nation. We may yet have a 'Cocktober'-type surprise in regards to Perry.
That the self-proclaimed greatest nation on earth is publicly concerned with what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own bedroom shows how far we've slipped from the Beacon of Liberty the world thought we were.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 6:45 pm

Although I personally could not give a satisfying shit just who he fucks, I would delight to have some HUGE gay sex scandal erupt regarding Gub'nor Dimwitty. Nothing makes me quite so happy as watching these people, who would happily throw all of us queer folk into the pits of hell if they could get away with it, get their comeuppance. Roy Cohn's in store for you, Tex, if you don't fuckin' shape up and fly, uh, right.

iburl December 7, 2011 at 6:30 pm

You're thinking of the next ranch up the road; F*ggothead.

Actually Rick thinks about F*ggothead a lot.

I'm sure he prefers faggot ass, but whatever.

I'm fearing of a gay Christmas
Not like the ones I used to know
Where the twinks glisten,
and children are forced to listen
To sounds of gays frolicing in the snow

Otherwise the gays will kill you.

Well this is refreshing: an article that includes the words "GOP" and "gay" but doesn't include "rent boy" or "wide bathroom stance."

coolhandnuke December 7, 2011 at 6:40 pm

Perry just has to have a closet the size of Oklahomo to hide in all those years..

Or "blackmail" … "wife" … "photos" … "TWO wetsuits"

Kirsten:

“'…our kids can’t openly celebrate Christmas' is Rick Perry’s somewhat counter-intuitive solution to this mystery.."

That's some funny, funny stuff right there! WIN !!!

There's a lie on the screengrab. It says ".org" and I don't see the slightest hint that Rick Perry is the least bit organized.

Unless, of course, it just stands for "organ." In which case, never mind…

edgydrifter December 7, 2011 at 5:10 pm

In Texas circa 2003, "holidays" meant Christmas, Alamo Day and Dale Earnhardt's birthday–and that is ALL. It was only later that the homos and pagans confused everything with their solstice fiestas and Hanukkah and whatnot.

What a load of bullshit- no snark available.

It's either white tie or black tie, dipshit. Doesn't the governor have a social secretary who can protect him from this sort of gaucherie, like advising him not to wear brown cowboy boots with tails?

Btw, bet we see this kid shortly holding his dolly and crying.

CapnFatback December 7, 2011 at 5:12 pm

Perry's got a point; when my kids came out to me as Christians, I nearly disowned them.

It is just a phase.

You seem to be holding up well. Be brave and remain strong.

natoslug December 7, 2011 at 5:50 pm

My kids were so incredibly happy when I finally broke the wife of the church habit. The only time they plan on going into a church again is for funerals and marriages.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:00 pm

Good on ya! If I've made ONE tiny contribution to humanity, it's ridding all my ex-partners permanently of the habit of resorting to prayer/faith in a deity. Seeing as how well invoking it worked on me, and all.

dadanarchist December 7, 2011 at 6:47 pm

Thankfully there are now wonderful therapies and treatments available for "curing Christianity:" it's called an education.

You see them hanging around in Christmas bars, nursing their egg nogs. It's kind of sad. There was a famous one in NYC in the 70s called "The Red Nose" … everyone in the place was a "little helper," if you know what I mean.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:10 pm

Um … I'd venture to say it wasn't the religious sentiment in your words that caused the suspension. Perhaps a little tenting further south? The heat of enthusiasm in your, um ejaculation?

I'm Rick Perry, and if I were still running for President I'd spend my ad time on policy issues.

SayItWithWookies December 7, 2011 at 5:17 pm

Rick Perry, lone voice in the wilderness crying out for the 250 million neglected and oppressed American Christians, won't truly be happy until he's forced to drag his cross to Golgotha while being scourged by a couple of muscular half-naked Kenyan socialists. Actually, that would make me kinda happy too.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:15 pm

I found out when my father died at that age that it really didn't matter. I knew he was going to die. It's not as if anyone gets off this planet alive. But it still left a tremendous empty space in my life.

I just found out that Harry Morgan died today. He will be missed.

BarackMyWorld December 7, 2011 at 5:27 pm

Look on the bright side….anyone thick-skulled enough to be suckered in by Perry probably wasn't going to vote for Obama anyways.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:17 pm

But does Perry realize, at this point, that there isn't anyone left who is planning to vote for him? Surely he can't be THAT dense … CAN he?

YouBetcha December 7, 2011 at 5:27 pm

Every time I watch a clip of Rick Perry, I slide a little more toward LESBIAN on the Kinsey Scale. I don't know if it's because I'm so repulsed by him that the idea of any penis grosses me out, or that his gay is so very flamboyant, it's contagious. All I know is: GAY.

I would like to address his war on Christmas comments to the Pilgrims that outlawed the celebration of said holiday and fined folks for giving each other gifts and making merry. Were the Pilgrims gay too?

DaRooster December 7, 2011 at 6:04 pm

"The pilgrims, English separatists that came to America in 1620, were even more orthodox in their Puritan beliefs than Cromwell. As a result, Christmas was not a holiday in early America. From 1659 to 1681, the celebration of Christmas was actually outlawed in Boston. Anyone exhibiting the Christmas spirit was fined five shillings." http://www.thehistoryofchristmas.com/ch/in_americ...

Mittens is starting the desperate moves too, now. So unappealing.

chicken_thief December 7, 2011 at 11:53 pm

Almost as nauseating as Newt sucking his own cock over how great he is now that he's in the lead.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 11:58 pm

Arrogant little shit smirking all over the InterToobz about how he's going to be the nominee ALMOST makes me wish someone else would overtake him — but there's only 26 days left, and who's going to be the next Not-Mittens? Ain't no one left.

Kids should save up their prayers until they are really needed … like in the presence of a priest or a preacher, or in the shower room with a manly man football coach.

hagajim December 7, 2011 at 5:48 pm

Of course Christmas is gay. After all, why else would Santy wear a red suit and jingle bells?

That or a young Gilbert Gottfried with a bad dye job.

Rotundo_ December 7, 2011 at 5:51 pm

Even with such a simple message, Rick's stupidity and lack of sincerity shine through like a heavenly beacon shoved up his ass. One that unfortunately has to compete for space with Rick's head.

faith may have made america strong, but it's no match for texas wildfires.

Chichikovovich December 7, 2011 at 6:17 pm

Faith made America strong and in parts charred and smokey.

DaRooster December 7, 2011 at 6:01 pm

"Faith made America strong…"

Yeah Dickhole… the faith that we had freedom of religion… faith that the government should help its people, not pepper spray them into submission… faith that together (truly) we can do anything.
Not the faith in constantly pitting people against each other in vile, hateful and evil ways. Go away… all of you hate mongering Ass Holes.

Dashboard Buddha December 7, 2011 at 6:11 pm

Is this assburger still hanging around?

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:25 pm

Assburger! I'd forgotten about that.

Oh, god, assburger.

Chichikovovich December 7, 2011 at 6:14 pm

OK, no snark here. "The Save Merry Christmas from the predatory Happy Holidays and Season's Greetings" people do have this much of a point. (Well, they rarely, if ever, make this specific point, but dammit they should.) "Holiday" themed music sucks. Jingle Bells? Jingle Bell Rock? "Frosty the Snowman"? "Let it Snow?" "Baby it's Cold Outside?" (especially "the classic version" by Dean Martin in his most shiver-worthy date-rapist leering voice.) Elevator-calibre soul-crushing life-draining horrors, every last one of them. And you can't escape them. They're everywhere.

Say what you will about the Church of England – they had some first-rate tunes. Give me the classic religious carols, is what I'm saying here, people.

Negligently_Joe December 7, 2011 at 6:30 pm

To be fair, even plenty of the good Holiday songs merely mention Christmas in passing, at most, and are largely secular in nature otherwise: White Christmas, O Tannenbaum (or O Christmas-tree, if you're terrible), Greensleeves (which has nothing to do with anything remotely Christmas or Holidays come to think of it), and of course the best holiday/Xmas/Jesusween song of them all, Carol of the Motherfucking Bells.

I'm totally with you on Baby It's Cold Outside being the creepiest, most date-rapey song ever, though.

KeepFnThatChicken December 8, 2011 at 10:39 pm

…with that said, I heart "Carol of the Bells" the most.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:28 pm

Interesting. For me, Christmas meant Midnight Mass, which was actually very beautiful and solemn, with all the kids lining up to light their candles at the shrine of the Madonna and then singing hyms as they circled the church. And the caroling was wonderful, but we sang old-fashioned carols rather like what Negligently_Joe lists in his reply. The secular Xmas music is, indeed, utterly horrible and inescapably so. I don't like the religious sentiments of the carols, but musically, they are very beautiful, and certainly more seasonally appropriate than "Jingle Bells."

Chichikovovich December 7, 2011 at 8:43 pm

It stands to reason that it would be so. For over a thousand years, the best, and sometimes the only, option for a truly talented composer was to express his (always "his", of course) gift within the church. There were other folk musical traditions like the famous troubadours around the 14th century in Provençal, but they didn't have the staying power to have great composers building on other great composers, pushing the musical conceptions deeper. And some wonderful music came out of that.

I'm personally OK with the religious content. I know lots of people who draw sustenance and strength from their Christian beliefs, so I'm content to leave it alone if it will leave me and my loved ones and friends alone. Perhaps this comes from growing up a natural skeptic in the only non-Catholic family in a very devout French Canadian small town. From the outset, Christianity was always "what other people believe", and since I try to avoid jerks as much as I can, most of the Christians I do know are pretty decent people. So I just take it on those terms, as I would Hinduism or Islam, religions more exotic to Western eyes, but also with both rich artistic traditions and darker aspects.

KeepFnThatChicken December 8, 2011 at 10:42 pm

…and in keeping with the apparent tradition of solemnity that Christmas is often espoused to enjoy, helps to distinguish such a beautiful rememberance of the holiday from today's more modern, horror-filled, agenda-driven version.

Chet Kincaid December 7, 2011 at 11:57 pm

That is so awful! Madonna has NO place in the celebration of our Lord's birth!!

Chichikovovich December 8, 2011 at 8:05 am

Not even "Like a Virgin"?

Chet Kincaid December 8, 2011 at 8:58 am

From her classic album, "The Annunciation."

PalinzADummy December 8, 2011 at 12:58 pm

You're horrible, Chet. It must be why I have a major crush on you.

Nostrildamus December 8, 2011 at 12:09 am

Some of the nicest old "Yule" tunes are Wassail songs which may mention Christ is passing, but are much more about drinking, fellowship and more drinking, for example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gower_Wassail

Chichikovovich December 8, 2011 at 8:04 am

Yes, I stand corrected and chastened. I should have made an exception for folk-traditional songs of sufficient quality to be sung and improved 400 years or more. (Especially if they emerge from a culture like that of Wales, in which music plays a central social role.) If radio stations and malls/supermarkets would saturation bomb us with that instead of the tin pan alley muck we hear today, I'd be fully content.—

Chet Kincaid December 8, 2011 at 9:00 am

Mmm, mulled cider. "Tis the season!

PalinzADummy December 8, 2011 at 12:58 pm

Yes! Thanky kindly!

not that Dewey December 8, 2011 at 9:05 am

But but but what about Elvis?

Chichikovovich December 8, 2011 at 12:03 pm

Elvis's voice could produce some nice moments even in “Granny got Run Over by a Reindeer” so there's a general exception for him.On the other hand, I remember a woman I knew behind the counter of a drugstore close to my apartment when I was a youngster. Her store had a Christmas song tape that seemed to consist of nothing but Elvis singing “Blue Christmas”. She told me that after ten days of that song, eight hours a day, five or six days a week, she thought she had died and gone to hell.—

not that Dewey December 8, 2011 at 12:34 pm

Back in my recording studio days, I had a client who dreamed of being an Elvis impersonator. He went by the name "Isaac Elvis". He was Majorcan, with a super-thick accent, didn't look or sound at all like Elvis, but he was willing to pay me $40/hr to strip vocals from Elvis records with a karaoke machine and record his tortured singing in its place for 6 – 8 hours at a time, several times a week. He was paying my rent, so I never complained, always delivered gracious service with a smile. I was able to tolerate this for about 2 years.

Needless to say, the ordeal involved his recording two xmas albums. He barely knew the words to the songs, so we would have to stop and punch in vocals dozens of times per song, hundreds per night. Blue Christmas is seared into my neurons, as if with a branding iron.

PalinzADummy December 8, 2011 at 1:01 pm

My poor, dear friend! (I hate Elvis Presley on GP)

user-of-owls December 7, 2011 at 6:20 pm

I keep waiting, and waiting, but the arms on that jacket he's always wearing just never become sentient and grow straps and buckles that attach at the back.

mavenmaven December 7, 2011 at 6:25 pm

I watched the video, but all I heard was desperation.

DaRooster December 7, 2011 at 6:26 pm

I would "make love" to his wife… but she would be confused about not wearing the strap on.

RadioYKWE December 7, 2011 at 6:30 pm

Have a Ni**erhead Christmas, motherfucker.

Tundra Grifter December 7, 2011 at 6:32 pm

Radio YKWE:

Geez – you don't Karl Rove was behind leaking that little tidbit, do you?

Apparently he was working for Perry once upon a time…

jesus_vs_gojira December 7, 2011 at 6:32 pm

It's true, the gays are "out" all year long, and I only see Christmas stuff from early September until, say, late January. That's what I call being persecuted!

sbj1964 December 7, 2011 at 6:32 pm

Gays are going to steal Christmas,and start decorating everything with lights,sparkles,flashy wrappers,and singing with dancing ! So how do you Gay up Christmas again?

iburl December 7, 2011 at 6:34 pm

I would like to think that Perry's downfall was due to his massive idiocy and obvious fascism, but sadly I think he's only failing this bad right now because he said that people that want Mexicans shot and killed on sight are "heartless".

OneDollarJuana December 7, 2011 at 6:37 pm

Hey! I just clicked on "rickperry.com" and all the headers were pink! What gives?

RadioYKWE December 7, 2011 at 6:47 pm

I can't wait to hear his comments about Kwanza. That ought to be precious.

SaintRond December 7, 2011 at 6:50 pm

So let me get this straight… Every time a gay person joins the military, or does something gay, it's fucking up Christmas for some poor kid somewhere. And so kicking gays out of the military and keeping folks from doing gay stuff will not only fix Christmas, it's also going to bring back the jobs and make it morning in America again.

Makes sense to me. Does it make sense to you?

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:31 pm

We need to talk.

chicken_thief December 7, 2011 at 11:58 pm

I'm out of bud, so no. It doesn't make a fucking lick of sense to me.

Chet Kincaid December 8, 2011 at 12:02 am

Every time a gay gets special rights in a foreign country, Baby Jesus gets colicky, also.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 6:57 pm

That god dood don't seem to like these fucking evangelistas much, does he?

Troglodeity December 7, 2011 at 7:15 pm

Vote Rick Perry President … of J. Crew!

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 7:33 pm

KBJ, I hate to contradict a charming lady like yourself, but I suspect if Rick Motherfuckin' Perry had an IQ of 50, he'd be lucky.

ttommyunger December 7, 2011 at 8:18 pm

Everyone has their beliefs. I believe Rick is a moron, but at least you know by his rough-cut attire that he's straight, right? Right? The son, notsomuch.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 9:24 pm

Even if Rick Perry never laid a finger on another man in his life, he is not straight. At best, he's a gay individual. More likely, he's just a sick and twisted little bastid.

ttommyunger December 7, 2011 at 9:53 pm

Well, in fact, my intent re. his attire was sarcasm. He makes a superhuman effort to butch himself up on camera.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 10:02 pm

I got that. He just fills me full of piss and vinegar, it has to come out somewhere.

ttommyunger December 7, 2011 at 10:27 pm

Relax, he ain't worth it.

HolyCow!! December 7, 2011 at 8:53 pm

Rick certainly isn't afraid to use his religion as a stage prop. I think that's a sin (see Mark 6:6 for details). War on religion, no prayer, no Christmas but gays! You can prayer in school all you want but you can't, as school employee, lead prayers. Obvious lie that right-wingers have been pushing for years.

So much bullshit in just 30 seconds. Impressive.

crunk4jesus December 7, 2011 at 9:19 pm

At some point, he will have to expand his appeal beyond the Westboro Baptists.

crunk4jesus December 7, 2011 at 9:57 pm

The comments on his channel are pretty entertaining.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 11:34 pm

I went through about 15 pages, at least, and I don't think I saw more than ONE that wasn't rude and insulting to Perry. The gist of all the comments can be summed up as: You SUCK, Rick Perry. Go FUCK yourself and go away and never again darken our towels!

crunk4jesus December 8, 2011 at 5:15 am

And "Americans would rather fuck a blender than have you as President."

PalinzADummy December 8, 2011 at 1:03 pm

I spent a good part of yesterday evening reading the comments aloud as foreplay. Yes, we DO have kinky sex in this household.

Though, to be fair, there are enough Westboro Baptists to win the entire state of Kansas.

Actually, if you have a measurable IQ, special relativity is intuitive. Its general relativity that's the buzz kill.

Chet Kincaid December 7, 2011 at 11:11 pm

He can film as many obsessing-about-the-gays TV spots and issue as many Gay-phobic foreign policy pronouncements as he wants, but there is no scrubbing the Paul Lynde off his reputation after that "speech" in New Hampshire.

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 11:34 pm

Paul Lynde had wit and charm. Rick has an "Ooops."

Negropolis December 8, 2011 at 1:56 am

This dude is on fire more than a Bananas Foster, I'll tell you what.

NYNYNYjr December 7, 2011 at 11:41 pm

Video currently has 5,500 views, 2,000 some likes, 90,000 dislikes.
This reminds me to ask this question: Does it not count as a view if the person doesn't watch to the end? Or does the view count just have long update lag times?

PalinzADummy December 7, 2011 at 11:43 pm

Did it leave any evidence, Chet?

Nostrildamus December 8, 2011 at 12:02 am

Nothing ruins Christmas for the kids like taking away their faggot punching bags.

Negropolis December 8, 2011 at 1:14 am

I so badly want this guy to take a long walk off a short Rasmussen poll.

They have got to realize this unveiled gay bashing has increasingly diminishing returns? We are quite literally at the point, nationally, where candidates might actually start paying for this bullshit instead of earning political capital if polls from this year are right about the issue.

Suck My Balls December 8, 2011 at 1:26 am

American Christians. The mainstream, dominant, overwhelming majority that has convinced themselves they're a persecuted minority.

smitallica December 8, 2011 at 10:31 am

I'm Rick Perry, and I approved this message. And for that reason alone, I should not be allowed anywhere within ten berjillion fucking miles of the White House, ever.
