I know I'm late to this, but wow! Guam capsizing? Really?!?

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) is raising some eyebrows with a comment he made about the U.S. territory of Guam during a House Armed Services Committee hearing last Thursday.

In a discussion regarding a planned military buildup on the Pacific island, Johnson expressed some concerns about the plans to Adm. Robert Willard, head of the U.S. Pacific fleet.

"My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize," Johnson said. Willard paused and replied, "We don't anticipate that."

This is just nuts. He really thinks the Island might "tip over" and capsize. This is better than something from the Onion, yet it's real. Click the link above for the actual video.
