[Iron Munro]

I regret that he now regrets it.

[ArtDodger]

And so the walkbacks begin.

[SeekAndFind]

He should be part of the inauguration entertainment....

[fwdude]

Regrets... like with his HPV vaccine mandate.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

I still chuckle about this one. The irony is so thick, like Rick.

[tomkat]

grrrrrrr !

[PGR88]

I regret ever having thought you were a decent conservative.

[Gaffer]

Bad move, IMO.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

I regret that you regret that he regrets it.

[fwdude]

That is sooooo embarrassing.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Rick is just showing his Energy Credentials.

[Da Coyote]

Why regret it.

Big oil gives us more energy.

DOE gives us crap.

[knarf]

Perry (and EVERY candidate that will appear before a tribunal) should bone up on every walk-back the questioner(s) ever asks

[PlateOfShrimp]

It never fails to amaze me how few people know what the real purpose of DOE is.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Are there three reasons why he regrets it???

[MayflowerMadam]

Not a good way to begin, Rick, weaseling out like that. Trump respects strength.

Jeff Sessions shouldn’t have said he’d recuse himself, either, on any issue — Clintons or otherwise.

[OKSooner]
