These People walk among us.

Hearing the racist remarks, and the crazy ideas implanted by Fox coming from the mouths of people in our wonderful town of Hazen makes one give pause. Everyone has had that experience where you thought someone seemed normal, and then they start telling you about the danger of the "One world order" or some other strange right wing lunacy. The other day Glenn Beck was touting how the NASA symbol, the one with the electron circling an atom, was actually the flag of Islam. No one in their right mind would believe this nonsense, but you start talking to some of the local dingers, and then you say "Oh no, there are people that believe that crap". Then you find our people in somewhat responsible positions believe the birther nonsense, and it scares you to think the supply of the paranoid insane is way higher than you ever imagined. When ever Kadizzle thinks about Nazi Germany he ask himself how did this happen? The answer seems to be there were a whole lot more simple minded susceptible Hoopleheads on the streets than anyone thought. If you ever doubt the supply of simple minded watch late night television and watch the infomercials. Someone is watching that stuff and buying all the get rich quick schemes. In the daytime they watch Fox News.
