Florida Officials Dumber Than Their Constituents

In this article from the Miami Herald, we learn that Florida officials have banned the use of the phrases ''climate change'' and ''global warming'' from any official communication - emails, letters, spoken.

Doesn't sound like they're fully confident they're on the right side of the issue if they have to start banning words to continue getting their non-point across.

Furthermore:

The policy goes beyond semantics and has affected reports, educational efforts and public policy in a department with about 3,200 employees and $1.4 billion budget.

Senator James Inhofe Is Both Stupid And An Asshole

I'll classify this video as ''humour'' because anyone with a brain will find it ridiculously funny.

He's smiling, yes - the smile of an asshole who thinks he just won a debate but doesn't realize his entire side just facepalmed themselves so hard it sounded like the world's biggest self-inflicted slap in the face, which is probably how Oklahoma people feel right now about having elected him. Congratulations, hicks: if you want people to start taking you seriously, select representatives that don't make you all seem like white trash invited to a frat party.
