Stupid question of the decade. Yep, it's a liberal!

You will simply not believe this. Our 8th District US Congressional representative, the Hon. Gabrielle Giffords, in a meeting of the House Armed Services Committee, asked General David Petraeus the following question:



"General Petraeus, what are you doing to reduce carbon emissions in the war on terror?"


Wow. I had to read, and re-read this several times to believe it. Folks, there are American sons & daughters dying every week on the foreign battlefields of southwest Asia . The nation is completely bankrupt and - quite literally, borrowing 43 cents for every dollar in federal spending. We have the largest environmental disaster in the nation's history in the Gulf of Mexico , and we have Mexican drug armies invading our nation. And yet ...



A member of Congress from Arizona 's 8th congressional district took the time to ask our battlefield commander what he is doing to curb carbon emissions in the war.



Gabrielle Giffords is the poster-child for what is wrong with the US Congress. We are being led by imbiciles. To the rest of America reading this blog, and to Gen. Petraeus if this e-mail makes it to your inbox - my sincerest apologies for the stupid question asked of you by my US congressional representative. General - I am sure you have better things to worry about than carbon emissions on the battlefield. I assure you, as a registered voter in Arizona 's 8th congressional district, I will do everything I can to ensure Rep. Giffords is voted out of office in November, and I pray you'll get back to business of fighting the war on terror without worrying about such petty and nonsensical matters as your carbon footprint in the war.

This is really how liberals "think"....if it can be called that. Guam is going to capsize, said one. Arizona doesn't border Mexico said another. Now we have Gabrielle Giffords basically asking Petraeus if he is planting flowers while prosecuting a war!


You just can't make this stuff up!

I would like to know what the generals answer was.
I can guess;
"It is hard to plant tree's in the sand"
"It is hard to plant flowers while your being shot at"
"A Prius is not really bullet proof"

But at least most of the soldiers are car pooling on the way to war, right?
I'm sure she would have then told the general that he should fly solar powered helicopters at night.
