Worse than I thought

UPDATE: I fixed the quote below because, though the speech it came from was insincere and riddled with grammatical errors, it wasn't quite that bad.

Due to a colossal error in math and my own expectations of some semblance of propriety, I just discovered this evening that the founding of the institute Keith A. Hall put on his biography on the department of Homeland Security, was actually only announced two and a half weeks before his appointment to head the Department of Homeland Security. I simply don't understand how the media let the governor get away with putting someone who had no experience in law enforcement or military into such an imprtant office.

As Hall claimed in his speech to the DOTCJ,

There is not a state in the country which understands the importance of ensuring
that law enforcement officers have the tools they need to keep people safe more than Kentucky.

He further outlined why:

Kentucky is the heart of the United States. 50% of all goods sold on the eastern
seaboard pass over the roads you will now ensure are safe for your family and mine to travel. 15% of the nation’s electricity is generated here. The word’s largest shipper sends virtually every package in the eastern United States to Kentucky before it is shipped elsewhere. If you fly Delta and wish to avoid Atlanta, and I suggest you do, then you will have to travel through the largest Delta passenger hub, which is right here in Kentucky. All of these reasons are why Jesse Stuart is right in calling Kentucky the heart of our nation.

This last part is true, but his first statement is rendered laughable precisely because he is the one uttering such nonsense. Were Kentucky to have been subject to a terrorist attack, we would have become a laughingstock even more than we are now. Not because we supposedly marry our cousins or don't wear shoes, but because we allowed someone who apparently didn't know his pecker from a pipe bomb to head our defenses.

Shame on you, Felcher!
