Before I get back into the groove of posting anything of real substance on poLOLitics, I would like to start with something that is completely devoid of any sort of logic or intelligence. United States congressman, John Shimkus* of Illinois, can be seen here, claiming that man-made carbon emissions are not harmful to the environment, but are in fact 'plant food.' Apparently by increasing global warming and levels of pollution we're actually just giving Mother Nature a little boost; kind of like those vitamin boosts you can get at Jamba Juice.
You might notice that I purposefully did not include Mr. Shimkus' party affiliation; this man should not be representing any party of the United States Congress - he should not be a government official period.
*You may recognize Mr. Shimkus - In May 2007, John Shimkus, during a speech on the floor of the United States House of Representatives, compared the war in Iraq to a baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs.

Rep. Shikmus also suggested that a "compassionate monarchy" would be the best form of government for Iraq. You know, because an evangelical Christian from rural Illinois definitely knows what's best for Mesopotamian political affairs.
