Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) appeared to still be doubtful about the origins of Greenland’s name in an interview published Monday where he was asked about past inaccurate claims he made about the country’s etymology years ago.
In an interview published Monday by The New York Times, Johnson was asked about comments he made while campaigning 2010 in which he said Greenland was named because "it was actually green at one point in time."
"I could be wrong there, but that’s always been my assumption that, at some point in time, those early explorers saw green," Johnson told the Times. "I have no idea."

Not laughing. This fruitcake is one of my senators. FYI, Johnson normally never has any idea.

There is a great deal he has no idea about. While I actrually voted for him, there are a number of times I have been embarrassed to admit it
