How to let people show their ... stupidity?

Well, here's one of our politicians, she was a member of the house of representatives when she twittered this:http://twitter.com/ChantalGillard/status/7724057954

als we niet ingrijpen blijven deze rampen op Haiti gebeuren. we moeten klimaatsverandering aanpaken en de kust van de eilanden verbeteren.

if we do not intervene, these disasters happen in Haiti. we need to tackle climate change and the coast of the islands.

A better translation:

quote:

---

If we don't intervene these disasters will continue to happen in Haiti. We need to tackle climate change and improve the coastline of the Islands.

In short, she either thought earthquakes are caused by climate change, or she thought there was some kind of flooding there due to climate change. Both are pretty stupid.Oh, and she's a member of one of our "left sided" parties, which to some of you Yanks will sound like communists . So yes, stupidity is there in every layer of society.
