Let's just surrender now.

The Democrats make another moronic choice. I mean, what is wrong with Pelosi, she may be retarded, she likely has mental problems. So does Rep. Reyes, who is in charge of our intelligence. And he doesn't know whether the al Qaeda is Sunni, or Shia. Moron. You would think that it is pretty important, especially since the People's Moron Party calls Iraq a civil war between Sunnis and Shias.

The Democrat Party even make Jessica Simpson look like Einstein.

How did we make such a stupid mistake as a nation? So, we can forget having good inteligence for 2 years... in a time of war. This really upsets me, because anyone who used their head could have envisioned stupid mistakes like this, and could have prevented it. Oh well, I guess we're screwed.

This actually really upsets me. How can we secure the greatest nation in the world when one in charge of intelligence doesn't even know what the group that killed 3000 Americans on 9-11, and that caused numerous more deaths in Iraq belongs to.

The goal isn't to troll (I'd imagine that is the inference). And I never called people who voted Democrat morons, I just called who they voted for morons... Which they are proving to be. I just call 'em as I see 'em.

Can you say that it is smart to choose someone to head intelligence when they don't even understand the war and the parties involved in what he calls a 'civil war'?

As Will Rodgers once said: "The problem with political jokes is that they get elected."

Shameful display of ignorance by Reyes. But he's obviously not alone:

Quote:

That’s more than two key Republicans on the Intelligence Committee knew when I interviewed them last summer. Rep. Jo Ann Davis, R-Va., and Terry Everett, R-Ala., both back for another term, were flummoxed by such basic questions, as were several top counterterrorism officials at the FBI.

Since our Congress gave up its place at the table, who's on which committee matters only in so far as bringing home the bacon. As I said before the election: this is the lowest ranked Congress ever yet 95% will get reelected.

Then of course there's this:

Quote:

If President Bush and some of his closest associates, not to mention top counterterrorism officials, have demonstrated their own ignorance about who the players are in the Middle East, why should we expect the leaders of the House Intelligence Committee to get it right?

Not to excuse any government leader, I'd wager that not 1% of the American public could answer those simple questions. So as usual we get the government that we deserve.

I think that everyone at TSF should just get elected ;).

But it is quite different whenever the ignorent person is in an elevated position of leadership. Not to excuse other elected officials who can't figure out which way is up.

I am thinking of running for senate in 6 years.

I'll move to Ohio so I can run against you. Imagine the press coverage we'd get and the confusion we'd cause when we go at it - intellegently - then go have a beer together.

We could have our HQ's at the same hotel and just make it into one big party.
