“It isn’t pollution that’s harming the environment. It’s the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.” - Dan Quayle
I've flown too close to the ground every time I've gone flying. Landing an aircraft requires you to get too close to the ground. It is simply a controlled crash! LOL
Politicians confusing criminals with heroes. Dan Quayle confuses sex offender Buz Lukens with astronaut Buzz Aldrin. QUAYLE GETS ASTRO CONFUSED WITH CONVICTED SEX CRIMINAL Published: July 16, 1989 12:00 a.m. http://www.deseretnews.com/article/55337/QUAYLE-GETS-ASTRO-CONFUSED-WITH-CONVICTED-SEX-CRIMINAL.html "Vice President Dan Quayle mistakenly credited a moon landing to a congressman convicted of a sex charge, amusing a crowd of Young Republicans at the group's national convention Saturday. "This next Thursday, July 20th, will be an historic date for America as America celebrates the 20th anniversary of Neil Armstrong and Buz Lukens walking on the moon," Quayle said. He meant to say Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, who followed Armstrong to become the second person to walk on the moon on the Apollo 11 mission."
Put Michele Bachmann in the same category as Quayle. In Iowa when running for President, Bachmann confused serial killer John Wayne Gacy who was convicted of 33 murders with actor John Wayne. Bachmann was born in Waterloo, IA, the same city as the serial killer, but was still confused about it. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/27/michele-bachmann-john-wayne_n_885368.html
Michele Bachmann also wished Elvis a Happy Birthday on his death day at a campaign stop while she was running for President. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPT2drqX16Y
My ex-roommate once said that the heater was a free utility provided by the apartment. Which is why he kept his window open in the wintertime and we had $150 heating bills. I eventually found the breaker box and shut off the heater one night. He woke up the next morning pounding on my door and yelled "What did you do to my room!?" I turned off the heat you dumb bastard.
Rick Perry quotes: "Bush did an incredible job, during his presidency, defending us from freedom." "And then it was actually the reason that we fought the [American] Revolution in the 16th century." (wrong century) “Those of you that will be 21 by November the 12th, I ask for your support and your vote.” When running for President, Perry wasn't aware that the voting age is 18. He also gave the wrong date for the election in the same sentence. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2011/11/rick-perry-flubs-voting-age-and-election-date/
Perry is of such exceptional caliber that Trump made him Secretary of the Department of Energy, which puts Perry in charge of the nuclear arsenal which Perry didn't know until his confirmation hearing. In his Presidential bid Perry said he would eliminate the DOE, and during a debate couldn't remember the DOE when asked what he would eliminate. In a similar fasion, Trump said on Fox that he bombed Iraq when in fact he bombed Syria. What's important is that Trump was factually correct when he bragged that he was enjoying a beautiful cake when he ordered the bombing of whatever. Which brings us full circle back to the quote by Trump during his bizarre, disjointed, self-aggrandizing address to the CIA in front of the solemn wall of fallen agents: "Trust me. I'm, like, a smart person."
