Governor Rick Perry appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night.
The talk show has relocated to Austin for the week of South by Southwest. Gov. Perry got a mix of cheers and boos when introduced. He hinted he may run again for president, saying “America is a great place for second chances.”
Perry and Kimmel also talked about efforts towards decriminalizing marijuana.
"For over a decade we’ve lowered the penalties," Perry told Kimmel. "We’re trying to be smart about it. You don’t want to ruin a kid’s life for having a joint.”
Perry denied ever using pot personally, but he and Kimmel joked about the marijuana smell left in the dressing room Perry used: Snoop Dogg had used the same room the night before.
