Idiot of the week

I decided after last week to make this award weekly. Why not. The criteria for this award is any memeber of Congress, Senate, The President, media, whoever who is just dumb, ignorant or both depending on the issue. At the end of the year I will give the idiot of the year award. This week is a tie for the simple reason: They are both elected to Congress and either didn't know the pledge or the difference between the constitution and the Declaration of Independence.

The winners are: John Boener of Ohio for not knowing Friday at the last attempt by Republicans to imtimidate Democrats against the House version of healthcare he said he was reading the Constitution when he actually read the Declaration of Indenpendence

The co winner is Rep Tom Akin of Missouri for claiming a) the pledge of allegence "drives liberals crazy (which is false) and for b) forgetting a word. Who really knows what he had in mind but it's stupid and so is he.

Congrats to you both you are the co idiots of the week. You claim you are Americans but don't even know the basics.
