Layer Upon Layer Upon Layer Of Mindbendingly Stupid

It's like a mirror of stupid facing another mirror of stupid. It just goes on, endlessly into a spiralling abyss of stupid.

I mean read the following and tell me it's not pure, unadalterated gold plated stupidity:

Rep. Steven LaTourette, R-Ohio, who is close to Boehner, said the idea that this episode has hurt Boehner's speakership is, "like saying the superintendent of an insane asylum should be discharged because he couldn't control the crazy people. I mean that's nuts."

Calling his own caucus insane, denial of the Speakers responsibility, denial that failure to count is failure, and calling questioners nuts. It's four for four.
