All over the news? The CDA Press? Umm, not exactly.

It's not exactly as earth shattering as Guam tipping over, so I think I'll be able to sleep tonight. In fact, I think I will. Right now.

Maybe a slow news night in Idaho. Made a good laugh tonight!

Huffington Post, the Guardian, newspapers in Minneapolis, Denver, New York...

Sadly, Idaho has a track record for politicians sticking their foot in their mouths over the abortion issue. I recognize that forum rules dictate this topic, which is obviously political, is expressly prohibited here. However, we are not arguing the pros or cons of abortion, whether the bill is good or bad, or anything that will devolve into a political discussion.

What we are pointing out, is that whether you are staunchly pro-life, pro-choice, or anything in between, comments like what Barbieri, or Mendive or Winder previously, are abjectly ridiculous and paints this state is a bunch of dumb, ignorant, backwoods doofuses.

Sadly, that is exactly what this state has been electing, time and time again.

I'd love to see the whole IEN/ENA/Syringa/Centurylink debacle get investigated. At least 3 people should either be in jail or on the hook for tens of millions of dollars we the tax payer are stuck paying.

Cronyism is par for the course in Otter's Idaho. Pathetic.

I think each state takes a turn with its lawmakers making folks just CRINGE when we see what they said. When I was a Californian...our congressional reps were even worse than our state reps for cringe-worthy foot-in-mouth head-up-rear statements...

Yup.
A bonehead can really draw some fast attention. Some folks can't distinguish between fame and notoriety, either.

When I read the article, my first thought was 'Well, DUH…" it seems natural any male (or female) adult would know the differences between one's digestive system and reproductive system, but this guy obviously didn't. Or if he did, he was just being obtuse for a little notoriety's sake.

Such idiocy happens all the time everywhere. Tomorrow's news will have another idiot saying something equally stupid.
