Hank Johnson: Could Guam Tip Over?

If this happened yesterday (April Fool’s Day), I would have thought it was a joke… Unfortunately for Representative Hank Johnson (D-GA), this happened last Thursday! It seems he is the joke, not what he was saying. After expressing concern that Guam could capsize, he went on to compare ignoring this threat to the dire situation we find ourselves in with manbearpig!  Oh, sorry, I meant Global Warming.

See below to watch Representative Johnson query Navy Admiral Robert Willard (head of the Pacific Fleet) about the risk of Guam tipping over from the addition of 8000 Marines. He went into fairly good detail, surmising that the small size of the island along with its wide girth would add to the threat of it falling over into the ocean. Perhaps we shouldn’t ignore Johnson’s concerns, maybe it is possible that 8000 additional Marines performing jumping jacks may cause earthquakes like we’ve never seen.

Daylight Stupidity Time

I just realized, it’s that time of year…  It’s time to cut an inch off our blankets and sew it to the other end so it is longer…  That’s right, it’s time for Daylight Saving Time!  The most futile and pointless of activities we are forced to do twice a year in order to save our precious supply of whale oil.  But we also get the side benefits of increased traffic accidents, increased residential energy usage, and plenty of issues for kids.  Oh, I can’t wait, this is so worth it!
