'''Liberal stupidity''' (based on Latin: ''stupēre'' or ''stupor''; removal from sense or sensibility[http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/stupor][http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/stupid]) is statements, policies, or actions by adherents of liberalism which are authoritative in form, but the end of which is devoid of reality or common sense. A recent example is the incredible statement by Democrat Hank Johnson of Georgia, who feared the "capsizing" of [[Guam]] should the Navy relocate 8,000 personnel there[http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/beltway-confidential/Dumbest-Congressman-Ever--89652542.html].

====Gary Condit====
+
A democrat from California's 18th district (Modesto), Condit gained noteriety when he attempted to stonewall a police investigation into the 2001 disappearance and murder of political intern Chandra Levy; it was revealed during the investigation that Condit had an affair with her[http://archives.cnn.com/2001/US/07/07/condit.missing.intern/][http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/people/shows/condit/profile.html]. Although cleared as a prime suspect in the case, his political career was finished as a result of the scandal; he lost in the election of 2002.
