A Los Angeles Times poll conducted this week shows that if evolution works in the human gene pool, it certainly doesn't work quickly. Many Americans remain hoplessly and adamently stupid; believing that that proto-hominid in the White House is "tough on Terrorism" whatever the hell that means to the simian mind. Perhaps it means accidently clearing up 0.000001% of the mess he created in the first place - and that only temporarily. Zarkawi, who was able to enter Iraq in the first place only because of George W. Bush, his lies and bungling, has already been replaced and possibly with someone worse. George is once again the man on the white horse.
Most disgustingly, The poll found a plurality, 43 percent, of adults say Bush has higher ethical standards than former President Bill Clinton. Twenty-nine percent say they are lower. Forty Three percent of America - at the very least - are ipso facto so stupid as to be undeserving of liberty if not life itself. To listen to the idiots of America take pride in their own cognitive failure and wail about the dire effects of letting Mexicans into the country makes me wonder if the aggregate IQ wouldn't be noticably improved by hordes of baboons instead.
If it weren't that giving up would be participating in the destruction of my country, I would give up.

I am told that octopi can open glass jars. Perhaps their intelligence would lift the collective American IQ.
The good thing, such as it is, is that we can't sink much lower. We're pretty much at the bottom. If our aggregate IQ slips too awful much further we'll simply be taken over or incorporated into some other nation - then we won't have to worry about it much. We're on the verge of signing our future away in ignorance.
I think we're trained to be stupid consumers from birth and the only way to improve the situation is by massive immigration.
Those who don't like it can emmigrate to the third world countries the immigrants came from.
You should read the book Affluenza, which has everything to do with our training to be consumers. Quite informative.
Many right wingers and libertarians would feel right at home in third world countries with near-zero business regulation, and small do-nothing governments riddled with corruption. I believe that's the goal for the USA, only with a huge military to back up the junta. Times are good for these guys.
It's good to be the king, as Mel Brooks said.
