GOP Congressman: It's Time To Nuke Syria...
From The Carpetbagger Report:
Now we know where Rep. Sam Johnson (R-Texas) thinks the weapons of mass destruction are buried: in Syria, which he said he’d like to nuke to smithereens.
Speaking at a veterans’ celebration at Suncreek United Methodist Church in Allen, Texas, on Feb. 19, Johnson told the crowd that he explained his theory to President Bush and Rep. Kay Granger (R-Texas) on the porch of the White House one night.
Johnson said he told the president that night, “Syria is the problem. Syria is where those weapons of mass destruction are, in my view. You know, I can fly an F-15, put two nukes on ‘em and I’ll make one pass. We won’t have to worry about Syria anymore.”
The crowd roared with applause.
UPDATE: It really just sunk it to me that this genius said this IN A CHURCH!!! I wonder how the 10% of the Syrian population that is Christian feels about Rep. Johnson's comments...
