Fool On The Hill

This seems fitting for April first, but it is no April Fool's joke.

This fool, Hank Johnson (Dummycrat from GEORGIA) is an elected member of Congress therefore the jokes on us and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Johnson was questioning Admiral Robert Willard about the Navy's plans to relocate 8,000 personnel and their families to Guam. After noting at some length that the island is narrow, Johnson says "My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated it will tip over and capsize."

The Admiral tries hard not to laugh, but does crack a smile.

Johnson represents the district once represented by Cynthia McKinney, so it's nice to see the crazy continues.
