Rick Perry 'agencies' gaffe at GOP debate Well Rick Perry had the most memorable moment of Wednesday night's CNBC debate, even though it was a moment when he couldn't remember what he was talking about.When Perry tried to name the three federal agencies he would like to eliminate if he is elected president, but he was able to name just two: the Commerce and Education Departments. Perry received some assistance from Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), who suggested that he should actually eliminate five agencies. At another point, someone else helpfully suggested that perhaps Perry was talking about the Environmental Protection Agency. He said that agency wasn't it, and ended with a simple, "Oops":PERRY: I will tell you, it is three agencies of government when I get there that are gone. Commerce, Education, and the -- What's the third one there? Let's see.PERRY: Five. Okay. Commerce, Education, and the PERRY: EPA. There you go. Q: Seriously -- is EPA one you are talking about?

Christine O'Donnell Endorses Mitt Romney

Posted on February 14, 2012 in Christine O Donnell

Christine O'Donnell Endorses Mitt Romney BY EMOKE BEBIAK Former Delaware Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell announced her endorsement for Mitt Romney for the Republican presidential nomination on Tuesday. After notifying Tea Party members, O'Donnell went on Fox News to declare her decision. "I think infrastructure and executive experience are important, so for that reason I'm endorsing Mitt Romney. And I'm very happy. It's not an anti-Gingrich, or an anti-anyone else, but it's a pro-Governor Romney endorsement." According to the Atlantic Wire, the news "[elicited] media chuckles." A writer for Fox News's website reminds us of O'Donnell's "spectacularly bad Senate run in 2010" and says the endorsement just doesn't make sense... "She is the antithesis of Mitt Romney. He's the sobersided seeker of the GOP establishment's banner, and she's the woman trying to make a career out of being allegedly victimized by the same establishment." O'Donnell says one of her main reasons for endorsing Romney is his consistency. And when a CNN host pointed out Romney had changed his mind on major issues, O'Donnell told the news channel... "You know that's one of the things that I like about him because he's been consistent since he's changed his mind. And I think he's humble enough to say, 'I don't always have the right answers.'" In response to the endorsement, Romney thanked O'Donnell for her support and released a statement saying... "Christine has been a leader in the conservative movement for many years...
