But nah. This is just the republicans continuing to be fucking morons. Like when perry (?) campaigned on killing the DOEnergy, got appointed as head, and realized that there were nukes next to all that clean coal.
To be fair, most people probably don't realize that nuclear weapons are under the purview of the Deptartment of Engery. Most people would guess the Deptarment of Defense cause nuclear weapons, war, the Pentagon, etc.
However, Rick Perry is still an idiot cause he was a governor of Texas for three terms and ran for President. Rick Perry should have basic understanding of how the Federal government works from being a governor; definitely should understand what Department of Energy does, if you are going to campagin on dismantling it.
Yes, Inquisitor. This one right here. They won't stop talking about the Four Arm Emperor and the Star Gods.
