I suppose Perry supporters might say that Perry is responding to the accusations that he sounds like an Occupy sympathizer with stony, angry silence. But to me, it sounds more like he's an idiot whose synapses were blown. Or that he was afraid of saying something wrong, so he decided to not answer the question rather than dig himself another rhetorical hole. Or that he thought he was off the air. In any case: Awkward!
