28% Hard Core Stupid

The same number seems to always pop up. The number is approximately 28%. When you come up with a goofy simple minded idea you can always count on 28% of the people to believe it. The birther crap is a good example. The death panel crap is another example, and now Donald Trump. The sad thing about the hard core stupid is the right wing always gets them. That inherently means the right wing always has a 28% lead. The right wing owns the gun nuts, the abortion nuts, the easily scared, the paranoid, and of course the ill informed. Now, give the 28% a nudge in the direction of stupidity with Fox, Rush, and Glenn Beck and it is pretty scary. So things for progress look pretty grim.
