No, Congressmen Don't Have The Answer.

       According to an article in the Live Science web publication, the questions of how and why earth has magnetic fields may be answered. We need the magnetic fields to protect us from solar winds and all that bad stuff that comes from the sun. I'm not going to try to explain it because, after reading it carefully, I don't understand it. Suffice it to say, these scientists do understand it.
       But the report talks about heat and electrons and neutrons swirling around from the core to the mantle and back again. It's that swirling that interested me. See, it's a lot like the minds of such politician as Sen. Ted Cruz, and Reps Todd Akins and Michelle Bachmann, Govs. Rick Perry and Sarah Palin, Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh and a whole host of others.
       These folks seem to be swirling in their minds to come up with some of the ideas, or lack thereof, that they vocalize. Now that's not to say the Conservatives have a corner on the dumb market. Barbara Boxer and George W Bush, oh no, wait, Pres. Bush was a Republican. Well, anyway you get the idea. The point is, we could do with a little more honesty from all our representatives and media and a lot less playing to the lowest common denominator of the public.
       After all, the general public isn't nearly as dumb as politicians and commentators take us to be. I and I believe, most, folks can spell 'lie' and 'stupid' and even 'bull crap' every bit as well as the folks who are using those words and terms against us. I think we need a new Amendment to the Constitution that reads; If you do not believe in science, you are no longer eligible to hold office or vote. Now an amendment like that would clear up some of the stupidity and clean out about three dozen Congressmen and at least seven or eight Senators. It would also eliminate the possibility of any of them running for President.
