CARNIVAL OF THE CLUELESS #21
CATEGORY: CARNIVAL OF THE CLUELESS
Decisions decisions
Who will wear the Cluebat of the Week laurels?
Certainly there has been enough cluelessness exhibited by Republicans this week as a group of Republican Congressmen decided that the American people dont really care about high gas prices. So they felt perfectly at ease in voting to kill (temporarily we hope) the provision in the budget bill that authorizes drilling for oil in the Arctic ANWR. Rather than mitigate the high prices by finding more oil not to mention lessening our dependence on the kleptocracies of the Middle East these bozos care more about caribou than humans. Of course, drilling in ANWR wouldnt harm the caribou one iota but that fact seems to have escaped our clueless faux conservatives.
Then there was Harry Reid implying that Vice President Cheney is a traitor. My view on that goes something like Takes one to know one Par for the course.
Pat Robertson got a few votes this week for acting like a Notre Dame cheerleader and trying to shake down the thunder from the sky on the people of Dover, Pennsylvania for not being loony enough to let ID be taught in science class. But like Harry Reid, this is par for the course for Robertson. In order for either of those two worthies to receive Cluebat of the Week, they will have to do something more outrageous than that.
Ditto the French who arrested some policeman this week for being mean to rioters who were shooting at them. Nuff said.
We do have a winner this week. Despite overwhelming evidence that the world is round, Mary Mapes continues to insist that it is as flat as the brim of your hat. She also believes that the infamous TANG memos could be real which puts in her the same company as little children who believe in Santa Claus and Democrats who believe putting government on the case solves anything. While we know that since she is a liberal she believes the latter, perhaps someone should ask if she believes the former?
Congratulations, Mary! Let us know if you and O.J. Simpson find out who murdered Nicole, eh?
Lots of numbskulls and jaw droppers this week. Start clicking!
Stupiditys the deliberate cultivation of ignorance.
