French Actress = Structural Engineer

The Navy has themselves a new toy. It's an amphibious transport ship - certainly not the rock star of the Navy, but that's ok. The cool thing about this boat is that 7.5 tons of steel used in the construction of the boat were salvaged from The World Trade Center wreckage. That means we're getting a 2 for 1 special - it's a sentimental testament to the men and women who died on 9-11, and it's part recycled material, which should make the silly tree-huggers happy.

Of course, if you're really smart like Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard, then you'll see a huge flaw with this new ship. In addition to her remarkable acting abilities - which appears to consist of being able to get really naked multiple times throughout the course of a movie (Google it) - she dabbles in structural engineering.

According to Marion, the World Trade Center fell entirely too quickly, and "We see other towers of the same kind being hit by planes. Are they burned? [There] [sic] was a tower, I believe it was in Spain, which burnt for 24 hours. It never collapsed. None of these towers collapsed. And there [in New York], in a few minutes, the whole thing collapsed."

I'm not sure which tower in Spain was hit by a commercial airliner in recent history, but that's ok. Maybe she was at a bonfire and mistook the big pile of wood for a 100-story skyscraper. It's an honest mistake and happens more often than you would think, or something....

The important part here is that clearly Marion, in her professional engineering opinion, believes that something was structurally wrong with the twin towers prior to the 757's flying into them. And now, this inferior steel is in one of America's newest ships. I think Congress should launch some sort of investigation, as soon as they're done with the other more pressing matters of running the country, like determining if there's steroid use in professional sports or citing former Presidential aides for not ratting out their boss, who happens to be the President.

We should have a good week coming up - big primaries in Texas and Ohio. Hillary's deal with the Devil seems to be quickly unraveling, and the Obama brain washing operation is in full effect.

See you tomorrow.
