That we may just be starting down the road to 2012 but it's already clear that the mainstream media have set their sights on Rick Perry and are determined -- take him down now.

He's been tarred as a racist religious zealot.

And -- -- political dot com completes the slanderous trifecta with a headline.

That is -- is Rick Perry -- may reach quote.

Strip away the euphemisms and Rick Perry is confronting an unavoidable question is He dumb or just miss underestimated the article goes on to read quote.

In Austin he's been derided as a right place right time Paul who looks the part but isn't so -- Now the question of intelligence is -- the mainstream media never bothered to ask about President Obama.

But today big government dot com while they're doing just that.

Now forget what the liberal media is saying they want to know this is President Obama smart joining me was reaction the editor of the daily caller Fox News contributor Tucker -- Democratic strategist Steve McMahon.

I Steve let's take a little rundown -- memory lane that's.

You know what I mean any such a genius -- -- would have you know.

Not lost two and a half million jobs He -- cut the deficit in half like He promised they would have done all these things.

Let's take a look at some of Obama's gaffes that lot of people didn't pay attention to.

I've now been 57.

States on this Memorial Day.

As our nation honors it's unbroken line of fallen heroes and I see many of the -- in the audience here today.

I don't know what the -- -- an Austrian Wheeling and dealing.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The men and women.

Like.

-- run.

-- -- -- -- -- -- With -- I don't know Russia and Canada it's about Greta -- -- kinds of one speech she doesn't know what a lukewarm relatives.

-- -- -- is brilliant did you know shot.

-- the conversation that we should be having this conversation and I know I don't want your key if not -- I wanna have my conversation I wanna know what President Obama doesn't know what the navy corpsman is I want well.

After my conversation I ask -- questions you answer them why did they know what a navy corpsman is what did He say -- than three times in one speech.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- He read a teleprompter three times -- doesn't know the name corpsman.

Any such -- commander in chief and you don't have the courage to one minute.

-- all I'll admit that He mispronounce a word but I'm not gonna sit here and have a conversation with you about whether or not present Obama is a smart man.

He was the president of the Harvard law I don't view if He started a genius you know what or whatever yeah they can I.

At this point we -- -- of that but he's not the only president what -- graduates -- Harvard sort of George W.

Bush -- derided as a moron.

The point is not what your credentials are it's not.

How much you brag about your intelligence as Obama has implicitly through his entire public where you can claim to be the greatest quarterback in American history you don't throw when He.

Touchdown passes your lying we judge it by its fruits.

And if Obama is so smart the fruits don't suggest that.

The country has not become a better place to live in the almost three years he's been president it has -- -- -- worse place bullets so -- Tucker imagine what we're seeing results.

What's your Washington guy or sports fan when not a Washington Redskins replace their coach.

If you've heard of rebuilding right you don't you don't put a new coach -- And inherited disastrous to what has He help team gets and -- Palin were -- that's -- that doesn't have you can't doesn't happen when you inherit an economy like -- I gotta stop He gets played it for three per pack two years He had a democratic house democratic senate He promised unemployment wouldn't go above 8% and cut the deficit in half.

He's quadrupled that the economy -- never been worse none of its promises come come true.

And you -- still want to blame the -- you don't blame the air show you envoy George W.

Bush John it's not working with the American diesel Steve this is obviously what you pants on and it's time -- to take responsibility.

This is the conversation that we should be having whether the president's policies were smart -- -- -- you have one you they have one view.

I have another.

And the voters get to decide which few is correct seven and I want to percent of Americans now say that this president is doing a horrible job on the economy so they are -- -- shape and the president is the first person to admit it.

But He inherited tough economy the question village so they Ryan ray ray Sullivan plus George Bush -- economy the question Sean.

Is is the economy getting better now that's the question upon which people not cast the votes in 2002 -- actually the White House Obama is understand better or worse than right that's.

-- -- He inherited.

And fact by every measure it's worse I mean that's demonstrable that numbers tell that story.

You don't that's not rhetoric it's not a talking point that's -- -- -- this question Tucker.

He's thinking -- -- -- three times this is fascinating right because he's such a genius I'd liken it to any right at these -- Columbia I'd -- for them to release it.

I'd love to see what it was about I think -- in the spirit of -- in the most transparent administration may be willing to give it to us but let me ask you.

-- think He made a mistake.

What do you think you didn't know what do Korman was I think it I don't -- I don't think he's lived in a world populated by many -- and you know as well as not that that's the problem is that that's not the million He comes out He did get it He got got to college and I used -- -- actually put the port look.

Satisfied with the dumb president actually or one was bad taste or bad -- I just wanna present condos as a conduit.

Who who has an understanding of basic economic principle sufficient to right the economy and this guy who I think probably does have a high IQ.

Clearly doesn't understand basic economics and that's the problem.

That's what was that it -- don't come -- we're sitting here saying that when Politico doesn't ad hominem attack.

On Rick Perry it's somehow wrong and you sit here for a whole segment and we're making fun of the president saying -- minutes that performance and -- it and it -- basically it's an ad hominem attack.

Let's all eyes and all we -- you mentioned -- -- Ray had the -- liberals like yourself referred to Reagan as an amiable dunce you constantly attacked Michelle -- intelligence Sarah Palin intelligence -- and that is true -- -- George Bush's intelligence.

And then all of a sudden we on every liberals -- genius that drives the economy to a ditch.

And then you say this guy's brilliant.

And I'm just I.

That's what I do it.

Liberals I don't check people's intelligence instinctively the first inning go to Europe more on your favourite media players -- but what.

Seriously one million new jobs the real bouncing you know great season that -- you don't know he's -- -- do -- your friends do do it you should ask him as well.

Okay they should stop for you know what we -- conversation about the policies that that these that these candidates for president.

Are pursuing.

And that's the key cabinet -- you ever the American people are gonna find out well we're not happen tonight well I wish all the navy corps been out there my best and put up.

Appreciate -- Steve.

-- riot act.

I think anybody hiring mired in the last thing doesn't get it was why do I get -- -- -- -- let me I I guess you're lazy you think He made a mistake forty think He didn't know.

Honest I think you made a mistake I think you don't think He caught Osama bin Laden He He I think that George -- -- -- -- yeah -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- to hold the trick question He gave the order right credit He gave that order but it -- I'm happy with what -- hard enough that did pass from an annual deterioration of that.

I gotta get smart enough to do that I'm gonna thanks again draw -- -- from viewers out there and coming up.
