Logic

As Wonkette notes, King, an Iowa Republican, was last observed opining that Iraq is safer than Washington. ThinkProgress has explained the problems with King's math, but we'll take our proof circumstantially. When George W. Bush visited Baghdad last month, the trip was deemed so dangerous that it was kept a secret from Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki until five minutes before he was to meet with Bush there. Now al-Maliki is coming to Washington, and we know this because the White House announced his visit today -- nearly two full weeks before his expected arrival. [From Salon.com]

Do we pay these guys?

I think it is incredible that Iraq's capital isn't an order of magnitude (at least) more unsafe than DC. Speaks to how rough DC is. That firearm band sure is working.

I am an IDIOT. That is what I get for

1.) Not proofreading
B.) Typing just before I go to bed.

The firearm BAN is sure working.
