The United States is to stupidity what Saudi Arabia is to oil. If we could export stupidity, our problems would be solved. Lord Kadizzle is perpetually amazed at people who are walking around breathing air, and are completely clueless about life on this planet. A conversation with a young right winger today was a classic. He asked if McCain was the "Republican". Is the Pope Catholic? The next time you are out and about engage someone in a conversation about the simplest topic, and find out for yourself what a mess we are in. A couple of weeks ago Lord Kadizzle made it a point to talk a little politics with every clerk he encountered. What an eye opener. A lot of them could not tell you what year it is. The most frightening thing about this mess is how easily these people can be frightened. It is a given this election is going to be just one more round of scaring the stupid with urban legends and the guns, gays, and God routine. Americans have back slid so far it is amazing. The fundamentalist churches that have sprung up everywhere are the most prominent sight that people don't want to think, they just want to be bamboozled.
