    This doesn’t strike ‘bulo as an idle question. Are you suggesting that there’s some smoke somewhere?

    QOD II:

    Is being dumb a federal offense?

    QOD II:

    Obviously not, because if it was they would have to get rid of half of Congress.

    I am not suggesting anything since I don’t know anything. Just asking a question.

    How do we find out? Has anyone tried contacting her office?

    Dude, I’m with ‘bulo. This question comes from far deeper than just left field if it’s just on a whim.

    If being dumb were a federal offense and you’d have to get rid of half of Congress, which half would it be?

    Also, contacting her office probably wouldn’t do any good. Who there would know about something like an FBI investigation, and if they did know, they wouldn’t talk about it. Am I right?

    I’d like to hear them say “no comment.”

    I’d get rid of the dumb half of Congress of course…
    They’d have to pass a simple history test, like who was president when the Depression started, and who was president during the last swine flu outbreak.

    I wish I knew someone in the Insurance Office who could help point me in the right direction for some questions I’d like to try to get answered.

    Completely off the record, of course.

    Gene Reed? He lost the primary to KWS because she lied. He might talk off the record.

    He’d be a good resource. I don’t mind doing the heavy lifting — just want someone credible to bounce some questions off of.

    My reaction to the question was: From your lips to God’s ear! Sounds like a great idea.

    Unstable, I was thinking more along the lines of party affiliation. But since at least half the Dems and half the Republicans are dumb, there’s your 50%.

    I think we should get rid of the dumb ones of any party affiliation, personally. There is one party that has Rush Limbaugh as its leader and other has Barack Obama.

    It would be nice if the dumb ones to be gotten rid of include local problems like KWS.

    There is no investigation of any kind. Every five years the Delaware Insurance Department undergoes an audit by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners in order to determine if it is functioning in a way that would entitle it to accreditation. The NAIC Team gave the Commissioner their report and recommendation today. After an extremely complimentary assessment, the Team Leader advised us that the Team will recommend to the NAIC that the Delaware Insurance Department be give full accreditation for the maximum term of five years. On June 12 the NAIC will make its final decision.

    Yeah, well, that explains it all of course.

    Since the commissioner’s only been there for three months and hasn’t done much of anything, it’s Matt Denn who deserves the compliments. Typical that she hogs them for herself.
