excerpt ..
Who is this sleepy-eyed unknown tied atop the leaderboard at the PGA Championship?He's no duffer, he's Dufner, as in Jason, an Auburn grad (Class of 2000) who loves the Tigers. He loves them so much his goal each year has been to make enough money during the summer so he can take the rest of the fall off and follow the football team.
He shot 68 on Saturday, with four birdies and two bogeys, and was 7 under for the tournament. He hit 17 of 18 greens in regulation. If he can string together one more good round at the Atlanta Athletic Club, he will make enough money in earnings and endorsements to gold-plate the ailing oaks at Toomer's Corner
"I've stayed in the Auburn area for the last 13 years," he said. "I've got a lot of ties there."Rick Perry Exclusive Newsweek Interview: Calls For Dismantling Social Security and Medicare - The Daily Beast / Andrew Romano

Rick Perry has called Social Security unconstitutional and presided over the execution of a man who was probably innocent. But as Paul Begala argues, that's just the beginning.
I first met Rick Perry in 1985. He was a Democratic freshman state rep, straight off the ranch in Haskell, Texas. He wore his jeans so tight, and, umm, adjusted himself so often that my fellow young legislative aides and I used to call him Crotch. Even among state representatives, even among Texas Aggies (graduates of this cute remedial school we have in Texas), Perry stood out for his modest intellectual gifts. Hell, he got a C in animal breeding. I have goats who got an A in that subject. But lack of brains has never been a hindrance in politics.
Mitt Romney should be shaking in his Guccis.
Rick Perry threw his hair in the ring on Saturday. His entrance into the GOP presidential field can be a game changer. Perry can raise money as well as Mitt. He can rally the base as well as Michele Bachmann, and he will say or do anything—annnnnnnyyyyyyything—to win. And in today's Republican Party, if you want to be the nominee you have to be willing to do some really crazy s--t.
