Cat Fight! Rick Perry vs. Common Sense

By Zamboni

Oh, dear. We cats share something with Rick Perry: an admiration for the film "Immortal Beloved." (Yes, we know that its star, Gary Oldman, is a right winger. But the music is good.)

However, the most important tidbit to come from Perry's recent Parade magazine interview is that he's not sure President Obama's long-form birth certificate is real.

It's incredible that this is still a subject for discussion in GOP circles — but fine with us. We don't call the Republican 2012 contenders the clown college for nothing, and it's nice to know that their nuttiness is continuing to marginalize them for next year's general election.

It must be driving Karl Rove crazy to know that at some point in a domestic policy debate, the moderator is going to ask Mitt Romney (or whoever the GOP nominee is), "Do you believe that Barack Obama was born in the United States?"

As we've said before, we can't wait.
