Think the GOP can't get dumber or more far-right? Meet Ted Yoho

Every day that I think the GOP can't get any dumber or get any farther right, some Congressman proves me wrong. Now, it Florida Congressman Ted Yoho, who seems to set the new standard for making up facts. I thought it was bad when he said that doesn't believe President Obama's birth certificate and that he isn't an American. I thought it was bad enough that he called the President a racist for a tax on tanning beds. Now, Representative Yoho has given a speech where he states that if Government shut down for a while it wouldn't hurt the country's credit rating. Really? So, when the GOP threatened to shut down the government in 2011, America's credit rating didn't go down? Oh, yes it did! So when any company shuts down for a while reorganizing, it has the same credit rating and gets the same loan rate when it re-opens? Again, of course not. People flock to do business with a company after they've defaulted on their bills, right? Again, not a chance!

It's bad enough when the GOP make up their own facts to back up their belief. But now, the GOP is rewriting facts and data to serve their purposes. And I thought the GOP couldn't get any dumber or farther right.
