  Do you ever get the feeling that when it comes to politicians these days,
• 0:06
  that well, maybe they're not sending their best, like, maybe they're sending
• 0:10
  people who think the moon is made out of gases, because apparently that's exactly
• 0:15
  who they're sending. Here's the headline. Member of the Party of Science doesn't
• 0:21
  know what the moon is, and that's Shila Jackson Lee, a Democratic congresswoman.
• 0:27
  Now let's take a look at this video. And sometimes you've heard the
• 0:31
  word full moon. Sometimes you need to take the opportunities to come out and
• 0:35
  see a full moon is that complete, rounded circle which is made up mostly
• 0:40
  of gases. And that's why the question, the question is why or how
• 0:46
  could we as humans live on the Moon. Are the gases such that we
• 0:50
  could do that? The Sun is a mighty powerful heat and it's almost impossible
• 1:00
  to go near the Sun. The Moon is more manageable, and you will
• 1:03
  see in a moment, or not a moment, you'll see in a couple
• 1:08
  of years that NASA is going back to the Moon. So there you have
• 1:14
  it. That's all you need to know. The Moon is made out of
• 1:15
  gases. But because of the nature of the gases, it's possible to go
• 1:19
  there, whereas the Sun is a mighty heat, but the Moon itself more
• 1:23
  manageable. Now, of course you won't be at all surprised to learn that
• 1:27
  she once led the House Science Committee's Space subcommittee. I'm I'll tell you what,
• 1:33
  I bet they learnt a lot from her, A lot, a lot
• 1:36
  that's completely wrong. But she's not done yet. Representative Jackson Lee ripped after
• 1:42
  defending her moon gaff and blaming it on the GOP vote better people. She
• 1:47
  says, well, that is good advice, but maybe not in the way
• 1:52
  she meant it, so let's see. Reacting to the backlash that she received
• 1:56
  for telling school children that the moon is made of gas ahead of Monday's eclipse,
• 2:01
  the lawmaker said that her Republican critics are hounding her because they have a
• 2:07
  quote unquote less forced stupidity. Well, I mean a lust for laughing at
• 2:13
  stupidity. I guess see Elsewhere in her address, Representative Jackson Lee described the
• 2:19
  moon as a planet. Another inaccuracy. Yeah, it's kind of like in
• 2:24
  the name right, the moon. But she's not gonna let those mean,
• 2:30
  probably racist critics get her down. She said, quote obviously I misspoke and
• 2:35
  meant to say the sun. But as usual, Republicans are focused on the
• 2:39
  stupid things instead of the stuff that really matters. What can I say,
• 2:44
  though, foolish thinkers lest force stupidity. So she misspoke, huh, maybe
• 2:50
  we should give it another listen to see where we misinterpreted what she was saying.
• 2:53
  And sometimes you've heard the world full moon. Sometimes you need to take
• 2:58
  the opportunities to come out and see a full moon? Is that complete,
• 3:01
  rounded circle which is made up mostly of gases? And that's why the the
• 3:08
  question is why or how could we as humans live on the moon. Are
• 3:14
  the gases such that we could do that? So the moon is made of
• 3:17
  gases, and then the question is how could we live on the moon,
• 3:21
  And then she says the gases are such that we could do that. So
• 3:25
  I kind of feel like she's clearly talking about the moon there, unless she
• 3:30
  was talking about living on the sun, which would also be idiotic. But
• 3:35
  anyway, she also said this quote also, I care more about these children
• 3:39
  who would not have experienced the eclipse in this enthusiastic manner, and I care
• 3:45
  more about protecting the rights of women and children than engaging in this kind of
• 3:50
  senseless dialogue, she added, well, I don't know. I'm not sure
• 3:53
  that asking why you think the moon is made out of gases is more so
• 4:00
  tenseless then telling children that the moon is made out of gases. But with
• 4:04
  all of that said, I'm sure you won't find any of this alarming.
• 4:08
  Let's see, she sits on three Congressional committees as a senior member of the
• 4:13
  House Committees on the Judiciary, Homeland Security, and the Crucial Budget Committee.
• 4:19
  She was appointed the first female ranking member of the Judiciary Subcommittee for Crime,
• 4:25
  Terrorism and Homeland Security, which she now chairs. She chairs the Subcommittee for
• 4:30
  Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security, and I can't help but feel that she
• 4:38
  might be terrible at that. Let's see, she was named by Congressional Quarterly
• 4:42
  as one of the fifty most effective members of Congress. The US News and
• 4:46
  World Report named her as one of the ten most influential legislators in the US
• 4:50
  House of Representatives. I find this all astounding because she sounds really dumb.
• 4:57
  It almost seems as if if your ideologic logically committed enough that well nothing else
• 5:02
  matters. But anyway, I mean, I guess Sam, you know she's
• 5:06
  being corrected, So I'm sure now she has a full command over the knowledge
• 5:12
  that the moon is in fact made of cheese. Anyway, that's all I
• 5:15
  got to say about that. Please like, share, and subscribe. Subscribing
• 5:19
  really helps me out. I thank you for that. I will see you
• 5:21
  next time.
