Does the guy actually believe the island of Guam can tip over and capsize?

Some politicians would have us believer worse.
They are just as ignorant as this guy, however they have a PR team that can spin to the simple minded masses.

Is this guy serious?
Yes he is absolutely serious.
He keeps getting re-elected too.
And he is a lawyer !!

But you see the problem is being that sort of person, somebody else is telling him exactly how to vote on every issue.

That is True. I wouldn't have even thought of it in that light had you not mentioned it. Some of his other speeches are about a "world without balloons" while promoting a helium bill. So yeah he's dumb but he's also harmless and don't seem to have ill intent. I can't say the same for others who can speak much better but are much more dangerous and in much higher positions.

I think the respect and professionalism General Robert Willard displayed was fantastic!!!
I'm not sure I could have done the same. The urge to even just smile would have been too great for me.

Maybe if Chris Christie goes there.
