It must be Week of the Weird. This week I’ve gathered three of the strangest examples of stupidity of government officials ever to cross my desk.

Karl Marx would love the popular moves among politicians in various state governments and the federal government to ban so-called "junk" food in schools, and to "put healthy food in" convenience stores and on the tables of those they define as poor. It's a very elitist and arrogant mindset that promotes this ideology, and it needs to be addressed.
Ultimately, the war supporters in Congress prevailed in the vote on the resolution. Still, the vote was significant because it places every member of Congress on the record as supporting or not supporting the unconstitutional, costly, violent occupation of a country that never attacked us. This vote should serve as an important reminder to the American people of where their representatives really stand when it comes to policing the world, empire building, and war.

Hello;
This is part of an email I received when I ask to be unsubscribed from a DOD email list. I am dumber for having read it.
“1. You could be subscribed under a different, but equivalent address. For instance, if your e-mail address as it appears in the ‘From:’ line of messages coming from you has the misfortune of depending on the distance between your workstation and the terminal room door, you were probably subscribed from a different address and, while your mail system knows that the two addresses are equivalent, LISTSERV has no way to know that.
In this case the only thing you can do, beyond contacting the list owner, is to send a “REVIEW DODTODAY-L” command to find out under what address you are subscribed, and try to duplicate it with the help of your user support people.”
