“Fight Against Stupidity And Bureaucracy”
.
So how many idiots got elected last week? Not all of them I hope, but I bet there are at least a few intellectually challenged newbees in the corridors of power in Washington.
On the lighter side, some of those who didn’t make it in politics made it on to television and appeared in quiz shows.
The results are not that much different to some of the dumb things said in Congress (oh, oh, I feel another post forming in my head) so here is a selection to get the week started with a smile.
Enjoy!
