Serious discussion topic: Is the American citizenry dumber than ever in our history?
   
Are people really as ignorant as it seems they are? Has willful ignorance even been so revered?

Ok foul smelling Jester I will join in on this serious discussion.

The answer is yes. Otherwise Obama would still be a jr senator from Ill.

2. The results of the November 2008 elections would suggest otherwise.

I'll go even one step further--if the people weren't that stupid, Obama would still be a "community organizer" in Chicago.

Even further, if people weren't that stupid, Obama would be just another liberal-arts major practicing saying "you want fries with that?" because there wouldn't be much call for crypto-soviets such as "community organizers."

The New York Post had something yesterday how Schmucky's approval numbers are below 50% for the first time in a while, and that the "Draft Larry Kudlow" movement is gaining steam.  At the moment, Schmucky has a better than 2-to-1 poll advantage, but the election is nine months away.  Larry Kudlow is the CNBC host that was on President Reagan's economic team in the 80s.

Well, after catching her live on the State of the Union, all I can say is one more nip and tuck session and she's likely to be wearing a Van Dyke an lookin like Dr Nick.



But seriously, dumber?  Heck yes, that is the whole point of socialist oriented teahers unions.  It is easier to enslave socialized idiots than educated freedom loving citizens.  Look at how they bow to their false idols.

The logic test fails on this one.  From a DUmmy's perspective, the dumbest the electorate has ever been would have occured in 1994, 2000 & 2004, just as prime examples.  Then they must have gotten smart in 2008, but are now becoming stupid again. :mental:

11. Unquestionably.
 Nothing much more to say. It is part of the Republican agenda, and has been for years...boil down the public school system to a thick bouillabaise of the lowest achievers while the wealthy send their kids to private schools. Teach fear and hatred. Teach to standardized tests. Make public school teachers out to be enemies of progress.

It's worked well for them. Just look at Fox News' ratings!

Interesting choice of words, "bouillabaise."  A pricey seafood stew with saffron.  I think he's bragging that he's familiar with such high-end chow, and knows how to spell it, too.
