While there have definitely been a lot of people who qualified for a Darwin award, never before have so many people been duped into mass suicide because they stupidly believed clearly incompetent people.<\/p>\n

Rex Tillerson will be confirmed as Secretary of State Wednesday. His biggest challenge was going to be draining the State Department swamp of entrenched bureaucrats who consider themselves the true State Department. Secretaries of State and Presidents come and go, but the bureaucracy remains. This is true in every department of government, but none more so than the State Department. Up until now, it was nearly impossible for a Secretary of State to really change much. It is nearly impossible to fire a bureaucrat. But there is an important exception. Really stupid people can eliminate themselves.<\/p>\n

Incredibly, 900 idiots at the state department just signed their name to a memo disagreeing with a direct order by the President of the United States. Tillerson would have spent a lot of time just trying to identify these people and it would have been difficult if not impossible to get rid of them. With one memo, they have not only identified themselves they have given him clear legal grounds to fire them.<\/p>\n

It is really quite simple. There are numerous Supreme Court decisions giving President Trump the authority to take this action. Even the New York Times admits this. They don\u2019t like it, but they admit it:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2015\/12\/10\/opinion\/trumps-anti-muslim-plan-is-awful-and-constitutional.html?_r=0<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

The New York Times, as expected, ignored the obvious and proposed the ridiculous. The Supreme Court has ruled very clearly that people in other countries do not enjoy the equal protection granted U.S. citizens under our constitution. Liberals cannot seem to grasp the concept. If everyone in the world automatically has the same rights as citizens under our constitution, we cease to exist as a sovereign nation. Duh!<\/p>\n

While I know a lot of very bright people who are liberals, the people leading the progressive movement in this country are the opposite of brilliant. Those who follow these self-absorbed, self-righteous, arrogant, incompetent clowns off the cliff to oblivion have earned special recognition. I hereby nominate the 900 people at the State Department who signed this memo to the Lifetime Achievement edition of the Darwin awards.<\/p>\n
