Gosh, there we are. The snapshot the rest of the civilized world sees.
Americans like stupid. People smarter than us phis us off. What do they know anyway? And you know, there are countries who have solved lots of problems we are up against. But they are FOREIGNERS! What do FOREIGNERS know about America!? We know our letters enough to read the Bible, we know enough ciphering to count our guns and their calipers. And no book writing smartypants are gonna tell us what’s best for us!
The GOP primaries have proven the point, it is no longer Left vs Right, it’s Smart vs Stupid.
