Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA): "My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize."

In the immortal words of Forrest Gump, “stupid is as stupid does”....
I bet that’s what happened to Atlantis.
hahahahahaha
That’s right up there with the flag planted on Mars.
LOLOLOL! He was series.
Thanks be to the democrats for their total control of the govt, and public hearings that give the public a chance to see previously under-the-radar idiots at work
We see here a Georgia democrat who makes Cynthia McKinney look like a genius. The people of certain Georgia congressional districts have an amazing capacity to select the perpetually stupid to serve their interest in Washington. Bless their hearts.
Even democrats of old sucked.
I just heard this on Quinn and Rose. This is the guy that replaced Cynthia McKinney. Some bright folks in that district!
Those words are better applied to our government, not a floating island.
Well you never know someone might accidently cut the mooring lines keeping Guam anchored to the ocean floor and it might tip over on windy day
S \
Yep, that’s our representative to Congress. What an intellect. He’s been drinking too much Obama kool-aid. Guess we should have stayed with Cynthia McKinney. We all know what a nut job she was.
What a friggen moron. I have lived in both places and this guy is an idiot. Who in the hell elects these pond dwellers.
Starting to wonder if The Hill and other media outlets are setting up conservatives by not reporting on how seriously ill he is when they reported on his bizarre statements.
Quick, go send the Poseidon and the Titanic to save these people.
Who cares what he says? He ONLY WRITES THE LAWS for our country. GULP!!!!!!! This moron has power over us!!!!???
“Quick, go send the Poseidon and the Titanic to save these people.”
And Aquaman.
This is just good ol’ Democrat common sense. The same common sense they use in creating bills in congress.
Let’s hope this guy has an OPPONENT for November.
He’s also the guy who said if the hosue didn’t censure Joe Wilson for shouting “You Lie” last year when Obama lied, that there would be people in white hooded robes running through the street.
On the other hand, he replaced Cynthia McKinney, so I think Congress is still better off.
It is scary to think that 219 people like this guy think they can run our health care system and make our choices better than we can.
On the other hand, maybe he likes death panels because he’s afraid if we get too many old people living in florida, our whole country might tip over and georgia might fall off.
This then raises the question of when someone is too impaired to have the reason to vote for legislation, taxes, decide on Armed Services appropriations and otherwise perform duties that affect all Americans and national security
If he is non compos mentis, this guy would have a guardian or conservator to manage his life. He wouldnt be capable of legally voting for socialist takeovers.
ROTFLOL!!
The military officer says to the rep after his ridiculous statement: “We don’t anticipate that happening”....LOLOLOL!!
I LOLed when he said that too!
kudos to that military officer for keeping a straight face
Now, when do we begin planning the humanitarian mission to save Guam if it tips over?
Johnson graduated from Clark College (now Clark Atlanta University) in 1976, was a member of Omega Psi Phi Kappa Alpha Alpha Chapter, Decatur, GA, and Texas Southern University's Thurgood Marshall School of Law in Houston in 1979; he practiced law in Decatur, Georgia for more than 25 years.The guy made it through college AND Law School, he was a practicing lawyer, and served as a judge for 10 years.He was elected to the DeKalb County Commission in 2000 and served two terms. Prior to his service on the Commission, he worked as an Associate Magistrate Judge for ten years.[4]
It is almost impossible to believe he was this stupid all his life. He has Hepititus C -- does that rot brain cells? Or maybe he has some other form of dementia, sad as that might be.
Or is it just that, being Black, he was able to do all those things while believing that islands are floating in the water?
I still love how the Admiral answered him with a straight face, as if the question made sense. It must be tough having to testify before Congress.
If only he knew how to operate the ballast tanks, he could save the island.
This isn’t an April fools joke?
Just another fool in the house?
So far as I can tell, he is running for re-election. He is also a current member of the House leadership, so they not only don’t have a problem with him, they have elected him to a top position in the party — he’s the best and the brightest they have to offer.
OK, I don’t even believe that they believe that. He’s one of their affirmative action picks, meant to placate the Congressional Black Caucus.
No worries. He knows how to spend your money better than you do. Trust him. He’s the expert and you are the knuckle-dragging cave man. Perhaps we should have a competence requirement to serve in Congress. If we are forced to buy health insurance from the government, surely the government should have some sort of quid pro quo.
Guam is more apt to tip over when Obama visits there in June.. with all the BS he will be piling on the little Island..
“Now, when do we begin planning the humanitarian mission to save Guam if it tips over?”
I dunno..but I think Al Gore should head up the efforts....LOL!!
Have you see the Obama law school threads? :)
Hep C is also a marker for AIDS, and that does affect the brain.
But yeah, he could have been this stupid all his life and no one willing to say that.
His staff should do something. But he’s their meal ticket. Lots of people invested in keeping someone in congress when its best for that person to leave for his own health.
LOL!!!!!!!!!!! The poor officer is poking around on his face trying not to bust out laughing!
This person decided what kind and how much Healthcare you will receive in the future.
Scary?
That is ridicules
I guess this explains how zero and the other dummies got elected.
I don’t know how he kept a straight face. Just goes to show you how excellent our military training has become...lol.
Well....he did replace nut-job Cynthia McKinney.
The sad part, Black voters think these low IQ people are okay as their/our leaders.
I'm embarrassed when the world sees who (ahem) leads us.
Look if he is that ill, then he should step down.
—lucky that it wasn’t on a slave trade route or those sharks that still ply the routes 200 years later would just be waiting for this to happen-—(per Congressman Major Owens some years ago)
The Democrat solution is obvious...everybody on Guam should be weighed and then directed to stay at specific places on the island so the weight will be balanced. Sounds to me like a good project for Obama’s rats. Oh, and Michelle can make sure they eat enough organic vegetables so the balance doesn’t shift enough to make the island tip over.
We should pray for this man. It must be a real burden to go through life with so much brain damage.
Interstate 20 and the Interstate 285 Loop pass though this district.
Posted for safeties sake.
I would not want a voter in this district doing brain surgery on me.
This really isn’t funny. Here is a man obviously on drugs wasting everyone’s time. It’s disgusting, and what’s worse it is not an isolated incident.
In a reference to the KKK, Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., said that people will put on “white hoods and ride through the countryside” if emerging racist attitudes, which he says were subtly supported by Rep. Joe Wilson, are not rebuked. He said Wilson must be disciplined as an example.
Did he attend public schools?
