Stupid is as stupid does

“Rep. Watt was particularly keen to display his own ignorance. He regularly admitted that he wasn’t very knowledgeable on technology — which should have been a reason to recuse himself or to at least ask for more info from experts. Instead, he just insisted that all of the technical experts were simply wrong. Based on what? Nothing. How does someone like Watt get elected when he appears to want to regulate the internet based on pure faith and against what every single expert has said? It’s downright scary. ”
