PATTY MURRAY: THE STUPIDEST PERSON IN AMERICA
No liberal has standing to call any Republican stupid as long as Patty Murray remains in the U.S. Senate.
Soon after being elected to the U.S. Senate in 1992, Murray went on a radio show and said:
"When I was growing up, the big fear in my life was the nuclear war. I remember second- and third-grade teachers giving us skills to deal with it, if that big alarm goes off, which was 'Hide under your desk.' Would that do any good? I don't know. But as a child, that gives you a feeling there's something to do beyond panic. Today the biggest fear our kids live with is whether ... the kid beside them has a gun. We have to give them skills so they feel confident to deal with it."
The woman is not sure if ducking under a school desk would help in a nuclear attack. Not only that, but she wants to do something similarly pointless to help children "deal with" school shootings. Maybe imaginary bullet-proof vests!
With amazing understatement, one of Murray's Democratic colleagues in the state senate told The Seattle Times in 1992: "She just doesn't strike you as somebody who's been reading The New York Times every day for the past five years." I wonder when Katie Couric is going to ask Murray what newspapers she reads.
After Murray was elected to the U.S. Senate, the Democrats tried to keep her locked in her office to prevent her from saying anything that might end up in a newspaper. But in the confusion after the 9/11 attack, the leadership must have lost the keys and Murray escaped to say this about Osama bin Laden:
"He's been out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day-care facilities, building health-care facilities, and the people are extremely grateful. He's made their lives better."
Yes, Osama was out building "day-care facilities" -- and probably sponsoring "Bring Your Daughter to Work" days! I defy anyone to produce something stupider ever uttered by a homo sapiens. Not Barbara Boxer, Joe Biden or even John Edwards can hold their dimly lit candles to her.
Murray, whose college major was "recreation," got her start in politics fighting to save her own useless government job.
The laughably apocryphal story she tells is that she was told by some crusty old male politician, still unnamed decades later: "You're just a mom in tennis shoes -- you can't make a difference!" (You know how politicians love gratuitously insulting their constituents.)
This stuck in Murray's craw and so, filled with righteous anger, she ran for state office and won as a "mom in tennis shoes."
The real story is that Murray was teaching a "parenting" class at a community college, which no one was taking, so the state decided to cut it. Murray's reaction was, "Wait -- I'm a public employee! You have no right to fire me!"

Murray is the equivalent of a Wall Street fat-cat saying, "I'm going to fight for my $50 million severance package because it's the right thing to do!"Read the rest at AnnCoulter.Com
This remarkably unimpressive woman has tried to turn being a flat-footed dork into an advantage by selling herself as a tribune of regular folks.
She wasn't a parent upset that her child's school was dropping an art history class. She was a deadbeat public employee who didn't want her job cut. No one was taking her course, but she thought taxpayers should be required to pay her salary anyway.
There are way too many to pick from to narrow it down to Patty Murray.
Looking at the Limbaugh “smear letter” the other day, I was struck by how sad it is that the world’s greatest deliberative body is filled with dolts like Patty.
I love this column!
Murray is dumber than a box of rocks, so that makes the voters that continue to reelect her_________?
While there are many pretenders to the throne, none possess the wealth of “stupid experience” that the Moron in Tennis Shoes has...
I really enjoy it when Ann gets snippy with stupid liberals, but you just know that someone will say “now isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black” by pointing to this sentence:
“Yes, like most regular folk, she listed no religious affiliation whatsoever in the first few additions of the Congressional Almanac.”
Ann, it’s “editions” . . . .
ROFL.
I used to think Boxer was the dumbest, but “ma’am” is also evil, so Murray wins the dumbest award.
This is, of course, wildly inaccurate.
Patty Murray is, in actual point of fact, the single stupidest person on the face of the entire planet.
The Congress is full of mindless fools. Just more proof.
Ann Coulter has put Patty Osama Mama Murray back into her tennis shoes. Murray is hastily trying to paint over her far Left record. I am hoping the voters of Washington state smell a nasty scent of old tennis shoes and toss Murry out on her rear.
Say WA? Evergreen State ping True, Murray is a mom. You could also describe Hitler as a "war veteran and painter," but I think the more salient fact is that he was a German dictator.
I never paid much attention to Patty Murray, and now I know why. The Dem party is full of dim bulbs, many of whom have defective wiring. Where else would they go?
I once had the pleasure of running into the fat little troll at my workplace. I say pleasure because she was walking through the only area in the entire company filled top to bottom with conservatives. It was great watching her have to dodge the Bush-Cheney 2000 signs.
My vote goes to Hank Johnson (D-GA) who believes if we put too many Marines on Guam the island will tip over and sink.
The article says that.
This is a cut and paste
“This remarkably unimpressive woman has tried to turn being a flat-footed dork into an advantage by selling herself as a tribune of regular folks. Yes, like most regular folk, she listed no religious affiliation whatsoever in the first few editions of the Congressional Almanac. (She probably couldn’t remember she was supposed to say “Catholic.”)”
ROFL.
Just imagine...
