Democrat Senator Cory Booker Drove to Hawaii?
Posted By Michael Minkoff on Mar 12, 2014
The guy that many people believe will be Barack Obamas successor, Senator Cory Booker (DNew Jersey), said from the Congressional floor (during a Congressional hearing about climate change, of course) that his first and only driving trip was from New Jersey
to Hawaii.
His first vehicle was apparently the Magic School Bus, or perhaps he can actually drive on water. Or maybe Cory Booker is actually James Bond, and he had just gotten a prototype of an amphibious car from Q. I dont know. His exact words, just in case you (like me) almost cant believe he could have even thought this was a passable fib:
Right after I turned seventeen and got my New Jersey drivers license, one of the earliest places I drove was a tripthe only trip Ive ever takento
was to Hawaii, and I found it to be an extraordinary state, except for one
At which point another Democrat, Martin Heinrich, saved Bookers bacon, kind of, by stating rather baldly: You didnt drive to Hawaii.
To which Booker responded: I didnt
ha ha ha [how hilarious!]
I did not drive to Hawaii. Thank you for that clarification, I appreciate that for the Congressional record.
But then he doesnt go on to explain what actually happened, because the whole driving bit was just meant to be anecdotal provenance for his one (comedic) criticism of Hawaiithat it didnt have a Jersey-style diner. Classic. No one laughed.
His bit about driving to Hawaii is almost as good as Obamas bit about being born there. Boom.
Conservatives regularly get painted as ignorant foolsfrom SNLs regular parody of Sarah Palin donchaknow-ing to Will Ferrells one-man George W show. The main reason this works is that many conservatives actually are stupidlike Al Melvin during his interview with Anderson Cooper
wow. But liberals are not much better. They might be worse. It doesnt matter. Lets just agree that pretty much everyone in politics is stupid, fire them all, and start from scratch. It wont hurt us to lose the few good ones as much as it will benefit us to get rid of this horde of mendacious morons.
