Idiocracy in Action

A study by the new McCormick Tribune Freedom Museum found that 22 percent of Americans could name all five Simpson family members, compared with just 1 in 1,000 people who could name all five First Amendment freedoms. more HERE

The mind numbing stupidity of the American people. A country that will send a brain dead, failed "B" movie actor to the White House and then look back at his disastrous administration with fond nostalgia a quarter of a century later...

Think about how stupid the average American is, and then realize that half of them are dumber than that.

Joan on George



"When George did the seven words you can't say on television, I told him he really only had six - tits wasn't in the same league as the rest.
But he needed a seventh. Seven was funnier.

I like to think George left the seven words to me. In fact I just used two of them in Britain and got thrown off of television. I think of it as my homage to him, and I'm so glad he was still alive to see it. I still have five left."

Comedy Icon George Carlin has Died

LOS ANGELES, California — Acerbic standup comedian and satirist George Carlin, whose staunch defense of free speech in his most famous routine "Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television" led to a key Supreme Court ruling on obscenity, has died.
Carlin, who had a history of heart trouble, went into St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica on Sunday afternoon complaining of chest pain and died later that evening. He had performed as recently as last weekend at the Orleans Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas. He was 71.
