Lazy

Via Talking Points Memo we get to see a new Rick Perry ad, called "Lazy." In it, Perry takes an excerpt from a statement by President Obama:

We’ve been a little bit lazy over the last couple of decades. We’ve kind of taken for granted — ‘Well, people would want to come here’ — and we aren’t out there hungry, selling America and trying to attract new businesses into America.

Let's see what Perry does with that:



Now, don't get upset. What did you expect? If you showed this ad to a Tea Partier he'd probably pop a blood vessel in anger at Obama. Nothing new here.

Except maybe this:

Does Rick Perry seem even stupider than usual in this ad? Even without knowing that his point is stupid?  Is this Rick Perry doing his imitation of Will Ferrell doing his imitation of George W. Bush?
