I agree, it is way past time to stop allowing the tail to wag the dog, when are the majority going to start making it uncomfortable to be a nutjob in public, we accept the behavior and then wonder why the world looks at us as if we are all nuts.
1. It is not your responsibility, or my responsibility to make it "uncomfortable" to be a nutjob in public. It is a free country. We have free speech. Those specifics give every citizen in this country the right to say what they want to say. It even gives them the right to look and sound like a$$holes.
2. How exactly would you see "making it uncomfortable to be a nutjob in public" a possibility? What would that look like exactly?
3. I would say that the worlds' perceptions of this country are more impacted by the words and actions of American citizens with a little more influence, a louder voice, a national spotlight - than by rank and file Americans who are trying to find ways to have their voices heard, when they increasingly believe that they have no voice.
People like a president who lays down red lines and then retreats from them, who gets caught tapping the phone of the German Chancellor, who claims that he learned about major happenings in the country (IRS, NSA, VA, illegal kids) on TV just like the rest of us.
People like the lying, snivelling worm Harry Reid. People like the wild eyed, raving lunatic Nancy Pelosi.
The superiority complex displayed in the article and by some posters in this thread, the dismissivenenss of so many of your fellow citizens, the indifference and the smugness - all very distasteful.

Let's face it though: most of the people that are the loudest, shrillest voices are not the sharpest crayons in the box. If only more people were dismissive of them maybe they wouldn't continue to embarrass themselves in such outlandish fashion.

You don't know what "drunk uncle-ization means.
Calling Sarah Palin drunk when she's clearly under the influence, isn't it.
True, but we really do not know for sure if she was drunk or using something else, she was in Colorado at the time and there are new legal products she can partake of there and she even mentioned it in her "speech", she was on something your guess is as good as mine
