i'm rick perry, and i approve this message. >> so that was how rick perry ran for president the first time. he will, in his barn coat, protect you from homosexuals. so in case you are worried, america, the one man who will stand between you and homosexuality is this guy. it's rick perry receiving and then, of course, famously cuddling a bottle of maple syrup that was given to him in a speech in new hampshire. rick perry will protect you from the gay and he will keep christmas legal from the democrats who want to make it illegal. that is how rick perry first ran for president. that's how he ran first time and presumably that is how he is going to run for president the second time. although we are still observing a ban about talking about 2016 here at the "rachel maddow show" in my handwriting on a whiteboard in my office, one way you know despite the 2016 ban that rick perry is running for president again besides the fact rick perry, himself, is open to running for president again, one of the ways you know he means it is that bill signing with the sleigh bells and santa clauses where h

governor rick perry signed that voter i.d. bill into law and then the federal government wrote the state of texas a nice note about it. "we've carefully considered the information you have provided about your new voter i.d. law. including the state's own estimate that as many as 800,000 registered texas voters do not have the kind of i.d. that texas republicans wanted to make people show before they'd be allowed to vote." it's not just any 800,000 texans who don't have it. "hispanic registered voters are more than twice as likely as non hispanic registered voters to lack such identification." under the new republican voting law in texas, hispanics would be twice as likely to not be allowed to vote. according to the state's own data. so the federal government said, you know what, texas, no. you cannot change your laws in such a way that you, yourself, admit will block hundreds of thousands of latinos from voting. the federal government blocked texas from going ahead with that. duh. but that wasn't all that texas republicans wer

>> well, you know governor perry, bless his heart. as you know, sometimes he can forget really important things, and he can get confused about very important current events. and the polls actually show not what governor perry is saying, but that 75% really would prefer for our state to focus on education and on jobs and on information like highways and water. and to leave these divisive issues to the wayside, to concentrate on what is really important. the other mistake, i think, that our leadership, the republican leadership, because it is a red state, has made, is to assume that because for years of redistricting manipulation where the districts are so solidly republican, that the only voters that matter are those that participate in a republican primary. i don't think they realized that there are other texans, and texans who are not primary voters who were so upset at what their government was about to do for the health care of women that they came in masses, by the thousands, to the capitol, but their voices weren't heard until th

>>kris perry and sandy steir was married today at city hall.ve tied the knot and are very appreciative all the work. it is a great day in samper's cisco, and it's a great day in america because sandy and i are merritt. this is the first day of the rest of our lives together and we could not be more in elated than you being here at everyone across the across the world that make you feel about equality. >> because really what we wanted so desperately was for our own sun to know the we love them. other families out there with similar circumstances you should fight to be married to. because you deserved what sandy and i have because we would come fight with you because we love your children in we believe that we all deserve to have this. >> reporter: we were told that this old marriage thing would take a least 20 days but it just took two days. it pam? >> pam: same-sex couples can to tie the knot. the moment but it was announced on tv i screamed. we looked at each other and so will our kids are not here. the up well with the way but we missed a win

in any case when we come back we talk about rick perry. rick perry have you no shame? what he has said about the woman who was hailed as a hero in that texas filibuster. we'll be back, we'll tell you next. >> cenk: well, this wendy davis is a remarkable woman. she spends 11 hours on her feet, filibustering this anti-abortion bill in texas. she's hailed as a hero and filibustered to the point that they were unable to rule and close all these abortion clinics in texas. as hermela joins us again. now we hear the other shoe drop from rick perry, who is just a capital-- >> of course. >> you know what. >> the authority on all things women, as we know. hadright? listen to what he had to say and we'll go from there. >> who are we to say that children born in the worst of circumstances can't grow to live successful lives? in fact, even the woman who filibustered the senate the other day was born into difficult circumstances. she was the daughter of a single woman. she was a teenage mother herself. she managed to eventually graduate from harvard law school and serve in the texas

. >> with this in mind he warns his co-worker, perry willings. >> so i just said to perry that when ithe bin across something might happen, there might be an incident, so just grab your phone and record it if anything happens. >> so perry does what he's told, gets into position, and starts to record. >> i heard some loud shouting and stuff. so i got the phone out, started videoing it, and it just all erupted from there as such, and it's just like luke just told me to carry on filming it. so i did. just occasionally laughing because it was sort of funny in a strange sort of way. >> then she actually tried to push it out on the road. so i went back and stopped it in case it hit a car or went into the front of the car that was driving past. when she was attacking me or whatever you want to call it with the newspaper, i didn't enjoy it, obviously. at one point she actually kicked me. i just, you know, hoped it would be over soon and tried to avoid getting hit too directly. i think she had completely lost control. >> at this point perry wonders should he stop filming? should he do somethin

i think perry's comments are indicative of that.e have a governor's race in texas to look forward to. we'll see if we're talking about that in that context. i think this is, again, a parochial conversation happening that probably won't be replicated across the nation. >> you've done a great job of reporting how the states contribute to the national dialogue. ohio just last night passed a pretty restrictive abortion rights law. wisconsin has something in the state legislature. if not -- i agree with you, texas alone. but is this a broader conversation we're going to have? you've seen a panplea of abortion restrictions since 2010. is this a conversation that helps republicans? >> i think it's a conversation democrats want to have. i think what we saw in 2012 was the culture war was being waged by the democrats. this is a conversation that it used to be republicans wanted to have. they were the ones gaining up their base with abortion and marriage. i think it's a conversation the party responds to and the pod rat voters in the middle s

today, perry made it personal. >> she was a teenage mother herself. it is just unfortunate that she hasn't learned from her own example. >> reporter: the senator, a harvard lawyer, who got that standing ovation, was having none of it. >> i thought it demeaned the office he holds. >> reporter: so monday, just a couple hours past high noon, perry has told texas lawmakers to be back to the capitol for the showdown on abortion and the senator in pink tennis shoes. david kerley, abc news, washington. >>> and now we head to south africa tonight. word about global icon, freedom fighter nelson mandela. crowds gathered outside the hospital, creating a makeshift shrine in the spirit of celebration for the 94-year-old in critical condition. today, president obama called mandela a personal hero. saying when he was 19 and a college student and made his first real speech, it was a protest against apartheid oppression if -- in south africa. he said mr. mandela gave him a sense of what was possible in the world. michelle obama said mandela's life is a lesson to us al
