The presidential field for 2016 has become so crowded Jon Stewart decided to refer to it as “19 and counting” — but one new candidate had him excited.
“Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, Rick Perry is running for President!” the host of “The Daily Show” said, before degenerating into a series of animal noises.
Stewart took a look at Perry’s first video spot, filled with soaring music and cinematic portrayals of the former governor.
One line of Perry’s stood out: “We must do right, and risk the consequences.”
“Risk the consequences,” Stewart said, laughing, “may be the most accurate campaign slogan I’ve ever heard.”
“Rick Perry: Risk the consequences,” he added. “It’s the same slogan you use to advocate unprotected sex.”

Rick Perry: He’s tanned, he’s rested, um, er, um, um, OOPS!
I don’t see how Perry will do any different than last time. Preparation was his excuse for the flame out according to his wife but Mr OOPS isn’t any different than he was then. His reputation is unchanged. What has he done to gain gravitas? Compare to HRC who has been Secretary of State and she knows leaders all over the world. What has Perry done other than be a republican?
He’s got his ’ he-man’ glasses on , Mr president . ( roflmao ) .
Now all we need is Palin to run for President and Stewart will push back his retirement a year!
And Perry proves that he’s just a straight up idiot yet again.
He’s been charged with abuse of power as an elected official and faces jail time. Other than that, he hasn’t done anything since 2012.
