It's called illustrating the absurd by being absurd. Perry supporters should never have gone there in the first place, and it is fun tweaking them with their own memes for another candidate's supporters.

We get away with lot of stuff here on FR because most of us have posted with, to, for, and against each other for a LONG TIME. We snipe at each other on one thread and agree with each other on another.
Anyone who thinks politics is a friendly sport is out of their mind. And we pretty much prove it every day. But when we need to, we know that this is the mother ship and we will not abandon it because we disagree SOMETIMES.

YOU know it, I know it, and if he doesn’t, that is HIS loss, not ours.
