Look, the Sun is Shining on Guam

Yep, the sun's shining and the weather is warm, but I'm still stuck in the winter blues. If you wonder why, think about all the changes that are taking place. Education is taking another step backward in places like Texas. A whole bunch of States Attorneys General are preparing to fight the healthcare bill. Presumably because it will, for the first time, give every American equal access to good healthcare. One Congressman was worried that too many American troops on Guam might tip it over and sink. NO! WAIT! Tip the island of Guam over because of over population? You know what? I'm beginning to feel better already. A little good humor can do that for you. I'm not sure what this guy's name is, but do you realize this guy actually got elected to the U.S. Congress? No. I mean, he thinks an island can tip over. I mean, he got elected to the U.S. Congress and thinks an island can tip over. Shouldn't there be some sort of exam or test or quiz that newly elected officials must pass before they're allowed to vote on bills that effect the lives of all Americans? I don't mean to set the bar too high. After all we do need to elect a full slate of representatives for Congress. But shouldn't these people at least know that islands don't tip over from overpopulation? They may sink from too many legislators but they don't tip over.
