Hi,
But who are the bigger idiots? The jackasses we've voted for, or us for voting for them?
Once again, a country gets the government it deserves. An ignorant, apathetic, self centered, avaricious people will get just the scum that fills fifty state and one national capitols in what was once a great country. If ignorance begets ignorance, then I for one fear for future generations.

Quote:Don't forget people: this isn't a truck! there are tubes involved.Anyone who *wants* public office is by that desire a poor choice for any office. But with sufficient ignorance and arrogance, any jackass can be (and most are) a Senator. Then they get to make decisions about matters that are so far beyond their mental abilities it's like letting the baby drive the family car.
