How Dumb Are Our Senators?
We try to be polite in talking about our political opponents, but sometimes it is impossible. Some of them are–there is no other way to put it–morons. Such as Senator Mazie Hirono, Democrat from Hawaii. I can’t find a good clip of her comments during Wednesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on bump stocks, but here is a report:
Hirono began her opening remarks by referencing an earlier hearing in which the “entire panel” of witnesses agreed that “this nation is awash in guns.”
She went on to stress the phrase “awash in guns” at least three more times, then said, “Meanwhile, the Supreme Court in various decisions, Heller was pretty much an astounding decision to me when suddenly, individual could, [under] the Second Amendment, individuals could own firearms.”
The idea that individuals couldn’t own firearms–or, more charitably, that we didn’t have the right to own firearms–until the Heller decision in 2008, is mind-blowingly stupid.
More:
She then jumped to the Bruen (2022) decision, feigning shock that, “Suddenly, we’re supposed to look to what the Founding Fathers thought about in…1791 or some astounding time-frame such as that.”
Suddenly. Suddenly we are supposed to care about our Constitution, even though it was adopted in the “astounding time-frame” of 1788.
It is depressing to realize that there are only 100 senators, and Mazie Hirono is one of them.

Bitt, the ignorance of such people, in this case Mazie Hirono , is simply stunning. Far more worrisom is that Hawaians are MORE ignorant than she for voting her in. She truly is a representation of the state she serves. The state of our nation is a picture of what lack of God, lack of education in civics and history, and lack of logical thinking will bring.
