Watch: Rep. Marsha Blackburn Wants Africa’s Borders In Texas Closed
Rep. Marsha Blackburn is as good at geography as she is science. While a House panel sharply questioned health officials Thursday over the U.S. response to the Ebola virus, the Tennessee Congresswoman managed to get America’s borders mixed up with African borders. In fairness, both regions in the world begin with an A, so it must have confused the poor thing.
Blackburn pounced at the mention of “borders.” She took Frieden’s “porous borders” remark which was referring to the borders between three African countries and confused it with America’s Southern borders.

She probably thinks Benghazi is in Lebanon. Oh, those tricky alphabet thingies.

As a teacher, I needed to take multiple tests on top of getting a Masters, why don’t our politicians need to pass similar tests and at least obtain a Bachelors degree? This would weed out a lot of ignorant money grabbers, not all, but Blackburn would be a start.

not a chance – somehow you equate a degree with kindness and a sense of humanity – check the degrees of the far right scum and avoid those with degrees from those holy xian schools which do not educate.

I love those goofs & gaffs, shows them they are fallible too. I really loved when congressman johnson (d-ga) thought guam might tip over if we put too many marines/families on it…
forpeace October 16th, 2014 at 19:27
Marsha Blackburn has been making goofs and gaffs on daily basis in her entire career in the U.S. Congress, she is an expert.
I’m not even sure how did she get a degree, I really love to see a copy of her college transcripts, and I also want to see a copy of her GED test result if she had even passed that test.
Spirit of America October 16th, 2014 at 19:37
“she is an expert”…
I wonder if her parents knew what she’d pick to be good at when they told her as a little girl ‘be the best you can be at what you love’….

I meant to ask you, do you recall the admiral’s straight face when he replied:
“…we don’t foresee that happening…”
That was sooooooooo professional, I bet he got a hernia though, that had to hurt.

I forgot that part of it. Do you remember when Obama signed something and added the wrong decade when he dated it?

why do you have a vertical yellow line to the left of your icon for your latest reply? I noticed a few replies people have those lines, some even a different color.

WTF?
Ted Cruz (Canadian born Cuban) is a Senator from Texas, and for whatever reason, thinks we’re back in Caesar’s time in Rome!?!
Not only are they bad in Geography and Science, they can’t even tell time!

If you check coming through Mexico are groups known as OTM which is an abbreviation for (Other Than Mexicans) and they represent a significant source of income for the coyotes.
If we have open borders we welcome all sorts of diseases that enrich our culture and I’m sure she means secure our borders!
