Let’s name some of the dumbest things ever said by an elected politician

This has the potential to be the longest TD thread ever.

"She Was 12 And I Was 30" LGB/FJB

“Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country”

-Marion Barry

"I am not worried about the strength of the dollar" - Joe Biden, two days ago

George Bush..."Rarely is the question asked: is our children learning". Stated during a speech about the importance of education, no less!

And, in anticipation of Herschel Walker getting elected:

"At one time, science said man came from apes, did it not? ... If that is true, why are there still apes? Think about it"

No new taxes.

We need to fight the terrorists over there instead of over here.

"We have to pass the bill so you can find out what's in it"- Nancy Pe-lousey

"I've held an AR-15 in my hands, I wish I hadn't. It is as heavy as 10 boxes that you might be moving. The bullet that is utilized, the .50 caliber, these kinds of bullets, need to be licensed and do not need to be on the streets. 90% of the people want background checks. Over 60% want a ban on assault weapons. 80%+ want red flag laws. I would believe those percentages would be similar for those wanting storage laws and for licensing and ammunition. Insteresting enough Americans support the buy back program"

-Shelia Jackson Lee (Texas, get rid of this Cunt)

All lies

You said dumb, but Shelia Jackson Lee is dumb and a dishonest count with an agenda.


1. weighs sometimes less than 5#'s. My Roam Redriver AR-10, chambered in .308 weighs 6#'s without the ATN X-Sight scope. Sadly It was lost at sea.

2. AR-15 uses a 5.56 round.
For reference


3. The statistics of your leftest hell hole don't represent all of America, or even your own state. That jackoff needs to be primaried in the worst way

4. calling it an assault rifle instead of semi-automatic was started by one of the biggest anti-2nd amendment advocates because it would sound scarier and people wouldn't know the difference.
