Harrumph Day

When I would look out over the political landscape of Texas, I was sure that we had the absolute most dumbass politicians in the country.  Well I have to admit I was wrong.  Even though North Carolina and Florida have come close to beating us in the stupid category, it is Iowa that takes the prize.  They have decided that it is ok for blind people have the right to carry guns. BLIND PEOPLE….PEOPLE WHO CAN’T SEE WHAT THEY ARE SHOOTING.

Of course blind folks have to take a little different tack when it comes to confronting criminals.  Instead of yelling don’t make a move or I’ll shoot. They say please move so I can hear where you are and then shoot you.


It appears that the politicians don’t have a lock on stupidity in Iowa, preachers make their mark also.  A youth council pastor in Council Bluffs, Iowa said he had a good reason for having sex with teenage boys.  He said, “to help them with homosexual urges by praying while he had sexual contact with them.”  I do agree that the only time many people talk to God is during sex but I really don’t think that is what this bonehead meant.

 Thanks to Texas Governor Rick (Hey I’m Healthy as a Horse and Dumb as a Mule) Perry's health care program known as JesusCare (Pray That You Don’t Get Sick), Texas is now dead last in health care quality according to a federal report released this week. 

A new documentary, “Mission Congo,” puts the spotlight on Pat Robertson’s refugee charity, Operation Blessing.  It says that planes that were supposed to be used to carry medical supplies were actually carrying diamond-mining equipment to Robertson’s mining operations.  Robertson said, “They are completely false.”  When asked if he thought his followers believed him, he said, “my followers believe in Immaculate Conception, talking snakes, that a man can live inside of a whale and that the earth is only six thousand years old. What do you think?” 




Stay tuned for future adventures.
