So is Kentucky, does that mean its not a state? Puerto Rico can call itself the Kingdom of Godzilla for all that it matters. It is not an independent country and is a United States territory. I shudder to think that someone who can neither understand nor care about that distinction might actually be part of Congress. It is a pretty damm good thing to nail the guy on. He is an idiot who didn’t know what he was talking about and when corrected blustered his way through it.
Sharron Angle, the non-chicken lady from Nevada, on how she did things as a child that no Americans ever do: laundry, sweep floors, make beds. . .
Who does she think she is anyway, an illegal immigrant?
Am I the only one who is endlessly amused that the woman whose entire health care reform proposal involves chicken trading isn’t the insane bitch candidate? “What if they just traded chickens for expensive healthcare procedures?” is actually the most mainstream Republican candidate’s position.
McCain has an amusing web ad capitalizing on Hayworth’s stupidity.
Certainly enough evidence to check her papers if she crosses the border into Arizona.
Another South Carolina tale of hiking the Appalacian Trail…
This one is kind of interesting. The aide seemed to have caught wind that the Columbus paper was going to run a story on their affair, so he tried to do the smart thing and got out in front of it. I imagine that Haley would have done so too, if her biggest backer (one Sarah Palin) had not immediately denied everything on her behalf.
Cop: Is that Lemon Pledge I see in that bag, ma’am?
Woman: Yes. So?
Cop: Step out of the car, ma’am.
As for chickenlady Lowden, she got caught in between two bullshit GOP traps. First was the folksy Fred “Ignore the Mercedes and be wooed by my pickup truck and how old gampy used to do it” ain’t-this-folksy shit great Thompsonitis and GOPers are never wrong and therefore chickencare must be defended.

Cop: MOP! Get down on the ground and put you hands behind your back!
Captain (later): Thank God you got her off the street. She had a leaf blower in the trunk.
and once again the State of Arizona is safe for the Mexican drug trains that inspired this law and are not going to be affected by it one bit.
Yet another of the Tales of the Arizona Highway Patrol.
Epilogue: Molly McMahan was treated and released for the minor gunshot wound she received during her beat down. She was able to quit her housekeeping job due to the settlement she she reached with the state. Her mop and leaf blower were confiscated and sold at auction to Mexican housecleaning kingpins.
Ha! That is excellent.
Well, of course McCain is going to be more familiar with the event, he was there when it happened showing his grandkids where he worked.
Get it? He’s OLD!!
Battle Prayer: “We can handle our enemies; Lord save us from our allies.”
Yeah I saw that. JD isn’t taking kindly to McCain’s criticism of his intelligence and in a strongly worded statement blasting McCain for these attacks he misspelled McCain’s name…
Seriously you can’t make this stuff up.
I guess that was assumed to be a given after they bombed Pearl Harbor.
I’m guessing that being stupid will actually attract a whole lot of Republican votes. Stupid like a fox!

Bolding mine.
I’m not sure exactly what technology he’s refering to. I’d hold off on calling that stupid until I know what the hell he’s talking about (or thinks he’s talking about).
I do sort of object to always calling it “Washington State”, though.
I’m trying, but I’m failing to think of a reasonable scenario that isn’t the result of ignorance. My guess is they showed him some software that maps the moon, without making it clear to him that it has nothing to to do with the web technology they were selling/giving him (which was likely simply .NET ASP). Then he conflated the two.
Plus, it’s pretty stupid to go Microsoft headquarters to get software. I didn’t fly to Redmond to pick up my copy of MS Word.
