Female Congressperson solves gun debate Yes she is a democrat

[deerhunter_98520]

Wow  no wonder this country is how it is  if we have idiots like this running it

[Heredoggydoggy]

Isn't she the one that said banning 15-round magazines would cut the suicide rate?  I don't think she's the dumbest--I think Maxine Waters holds that title.  Then there's Pelosi, Feinstein, Patty Murray, and I can't recall her name, but the Senator who asked the NASA guy if the Mars Rover would be anywhere near the footsteps where the Astronauts landed...  And there are people who don't think it matters who wins elections!

.........I can't recall her name, but the Senator (Congressperson) who asked the NASA guy if the Mars Rover would be anywhere near the footsteps where the Astronauts landed...

Score one for you

Looks like they are doubling down on stupid.  Now her spokesperson is coming out and actually defending the position!

here's Giffords, a big proponent of alternative energy and solar power ,  lecturing Gen Petreus on how to reduce his energy consumption while he is fighting his war on terror in Afghanistan.

Didn't the infamous Gabby Gifford (D)  in a congressional hearing ask one of our top generals if our troops couldn't use knives and clubs in combat to cut down on noise and dust?  These two members of congress are something else.  And maybe I am wrong assuming the D stands for democrat.  It could stand for dumb

Anyway you could supply a link to this shocking assertion?  Seems kind of wild that the wife of a combat vetern, aviator and Naval Officer would say such a thing.

Yep--she's the one!  Couldn't pull her name out of the cobwebs of my brain, but the story was unforgettable! 
I think one of the reasons smarter people don't run for office, is the aspect of being painted with the same brush as these morons!

Those ladies are stupid, but I think the winner for biggest moron has to be Congressman Hank Johnson. 

This is one guy who doesn't let his staff do his thinking for him. Here's Hank Johnson (D-GA) explaining his concern that relocating additional troops to Guam may cause the island to "tip over and capsize."

He's said lots of other stupid things too.  I can't believe he hasn't been thrown out of office for being a complete moron.

Other Hank Johnson quotes:

regarding "fast and furious": “I think this is another manufactured controversy by the second amendment, NRA Republican tea party movement,” Johnson said.

“Thomas Jefferson was a terrorist, he went after the free people of Libya.”

“[George] Washington, the racist might as well have had a KKK robe on under his powdered wig.”

“Martin Luther King was on the verge of revealing Halliburton was stealing oil from Africa in April 1968, that’s why they took him out.”

“White folks shouldn’t just pay reparations, the only REAL reparations will come when they go back to Europe and let the Africans have this country, and the Indians can go back to India too (and take their teepees).”

“I want to know who in the defense department used that Tsunami machine off the coast of Japan.”

“George Bush should be tried in the Hague for all the crimes against Africa during his regime.”

And who can forget his rambling apology for using the the m word?

That is my single most favorite stupid politician moment ever!

I love the admiral's response.  Professional and straightforward, keeps his bearing, and responds as though he hasn't just been asked the stupidest question ever.

Hank Johnson cannot be beat

This is a close second by our most intelligent president ever according to MSM

We must all work very hard to get these ignorant idiots out of office.

Rep. DeGette’s deflective, disingenuous defense
 
Trying to regain some credibility following what she calls an “inartfully (sic) stated” gaffe regarding ammunition magazines at a Denver Post forum, Congresswoman Diana DeGette is now claiming in an Op-Ed published today that the “gun lobby” has seized her remarks to silence and discredit her.

Well said Dave, I say let her keep talking.

[OEFvet1986]

I love it when they talk, just shows everyone how ignorant they are.

[Heredoggydoggy]

I love it when they talk, just shows everyone how ignorant they are.

What I hope is that it makes people wonder why they voted for her--except those people think her logic is true!
