How does someone this ignorant get nominated for US Senate by a major party? Amy Klobuchar doesn't seem to know the difference between Tom Ridge and Michael Brown, or else she thinks Brown was head of Homeland Security, or that Ridge raised Arabian horses . . . or something.
Watch her on video at Powerline:
Klobuchar is asked how she thinks Michael Chertoff is doing as Homeland Security chief. Incredibly, she thinks that Michael Brown, former head of FEMA, was Chertoff's predecessor at DHS. Klobuchar says:
You know, I think he's doing a better job than his predecessor. I always thought it was kind of strange when we put the head of the Arabian Horse Association, um, in that job as our top, uh, law enforcement person, uh, uh, working with FEMA and Homeland Security.
Read the rest and see the video at the link above.
Minnesota Democrats would do well to take a hint from their Pennsylvanian counterparts and keep their Senate nominee hidden away until after the election. In the immortal words of Ron White, "You can't fix stupid."
