Tillis doesn't put it quite so bluntly, but he comes close:

> “I’m sick of stupid,” a fiery Tillis declared in the Senate. ... he told his colleagues that Miller’s comments were “absurd.”

> “Mr. Miller said that the US government – obviously Greenland should be part of the US. That is absurd,” he said.

> Tillis also ... “What makes me cranky? Stupid. ...

I mean, he's a politician, so he tries to throw Miller under the bus (instead of admitting the stupid rots like a fish), and he claims he's the only one speaking his mind because of his committee (not because he's retiring and doesn't worry about being primaried), but I find absurd stupidity comes close to fucking lunacy.

Then again, I thought GWB and his posse were fucking lunatics, and now I've had to reevaluate their statesmanship.
