George Carlin said that half of the population is stupid, he was right
Funny guy, hands down. But in my travels, people aren't as stupid as he might believe. I'd say the FOS population far exceeds stupidity in this era.
What some are calling stupid is an observation of provincial myopia applicable to citified folks who too narrowly focus themselves in specialty careers (more pedestrian is the Archie Bunker route), and their counterpart, the country mouse redneck using library books for shooting practice.
Both have more in dysfunctional common than they care to admit.
Of course. Character assassination and personal smear is an old and trusted weapon of the republican party.
It is their own lack of character that their words and tactics betray. Lets see how long it takes full spectrum conservatives and republican constituents to figure out the fatal error in the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" life plan when it results in the constitution being used for toilet paper by their 'friends'.
Speaking of religion, why have we turned this oratorical actor, who supposedly has ultimate power, into a religious icon?
Hollywood has done something vicious to the dysfunctional human or Hollywood is a natural result of inate human dysfunction. Either way, political puppets of whatever stripe shouldn't be cared about beyond representation... but then one would have to be able to afford that representation in the first place.
Psst. There's no plastic Obama statue on anyones dashboard. Republicans are jealous that Americans believed in something they didn't own. AGAIN. What else is new.
Psst. Hollywood didn't do it. Madison ave zombie marketeers are eating your brains and feeding it back to you.
It's not like 'Hollywood' hasn't been pointing at it for decades.
The fact that so many people know what Romney's religion is, is not necessarily a positive for him. There is a lot of prejudice against Mormons.
James Buchanan sent thousands of Federal Troops to Utah in order to eliminate the Mormon problem. The religion has a history of anti mormon sentiments, but since it was founded by a convicted fraud it shouldn't be surprising. Add to that the fact the Mormons slaughtered 120 innocent people.
It is a cult with dubious origins and some pretty whacked beliefs...

Are you willing to listen yet? Lots of piles of dead canaries. You can't really believe they didn't try to warn you.
