Senator Debbie Stabenow: Against Canadian trash and Asian carp!

Ah, the beauty of it all!

On June 25th 2011 the senator spoke at the annual democratic meeting at the Lions Hall in Lexington, Michigan. She's excited about the "wind energy efforts that are going to help us get off foreign oil and be able to have our own American energy which will create jobs" (5:30). You see, so long as the wind in not blowing down from Canada or up from Mexico, it's American wind which apparently translates to American energy.

She also says she is up at night having nightmares about fish. She wants to stop the Asian carp from coming in from Chicago to Lake Michigan which is disrupting the fishing industry. "You don't want to worry about sitting in a boat and having a 100 lb. fish come out and knock you unconscious."

Where are the adults in the room?
