'The dumb stuff Tuberville does hurts himself and hurts Alabama, but now it’s beginning to hurt America,' columnist WarOnDumb writes of Sen. Tommy Tuberville.
— Tuberville has slowed the promotion of more than 200 top military officers to a crawl, a tactic that could soon create vacancies on the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
But the real drawback of such folks rising to higher office is that they don’t rise. Rather, they pull everyone else closer to their level. Public bodies are supposed to serve as an aggregate of American intelligence. When we elect dumb people to public office, we make the aggregate dumber. However, none of them have done anything to stop him. Not the Democrats. Not the Republicans. Not the junior Senator from Alabama who benefits by comparison to her senior colleague.
