I guess I was trying to make the point that as a nation, we the people, act like the characters in Idiocracy.

I haven’t seen an instance where Obama has outmaneuvered or outflanked anyone. The fact that he defeated Bill and Hillary Clinton — two legitimately clever politicos — IS impressive. But I chalk that up to overconfidence and underestimating on the part of the Clintons.

The most impressive thing Obama has accomplished to date was getting the divorce records of that Illinois senate candidate out into the public. That was shrewd. If anything Obama puts his foot in his mouth more often than not. But here’s the kicker: a truly cunning individual would know not to rely on a teleprompter for every syllable. If Obama were truly cunning he’d know not to make these fights so personal.

[Hilarious!]

If you haven’t seen the movie, I recommend it. It is moronic, idiotic, moral relativistic, but a good rendition of where we are as a nation.

[Actually, “idiocracy” is the best satire written in recent years, so not “moronic.”—IM]

But the really stupid people are those who make public statements that are being heard and recorded by millions of people, then insist they never made those statements, or they “misspoke.” They do this because they believe most of US are ignorant, gullible, illiterate and… stupid. We don’t really count in the grand scheme of things. We’re all just “useless eaters.” However, all of us dumb chow-hounds are proving once again that the “elites” are as wrong as ever.

This brings us to the incredibly stupid who never learn from the past. They think this time will be the charm. This time it will work. They think they have so many of us dumbed-down by now that we’ll just limp off into our caves where we’ll scratch and grunt and lick our wounds while they kill us off by the millions. They never learn their lesson from history, and therefore they are doomed to repeat it, apparently forever. Unfortunately, many innocents will suffer at their hands, but they will eventually lose again. They always do and they always will.

Another excellent article, Ilana. I’ll keep it handy in case one of Obama’s exasperating supporters asks what’s so wrong with him. The last thing we need is his big dream government; rather we need a smaller, smarter government that gets its head out from between its knees and starts acting like the US again.
