UPDATE.. and an APOLOGY to Broadway Carl.. Carlos.. I am so very sorry.. I was tired and that is no excuse. I was just neglectful and didn't give you the credit for finding this wonderful video. I just hope my friend can forgive me. He does beautiful work at his blog and I should be punished..
*********************************************************
Watch this video and you will see why we are having trouble getting anything done. Some of these people are very confused, very brainwashed and very dumb. Well, maybe stupid.
Most of them are loyal Glenn Beck viewers.. of course, they must not watch enough to suffer from whiplash yet, over his backtracking, but they watch enough to be able to quote his ignorant rants.
Just amazes me sometimes, how little people know about things, and how little they bother to check for them selves, they just take something a talking head on radio or the TeeVee Machine at face value and go with it.. Simply Amazing. No, I think it is LAZINESS...

I feel like beating my head on the table. The number of southern accents is pathetic. And that's coming from someone who grew up there and still feels an affinity. I suppose that the ignorant are like the poor: They shall always be with us.
Like I said, Teh Stupid.. it is strong and it is mostly from teh south in this video..
Crazy wasn't it.. I couldn't believe it either.. but mostly they were just parroting Beck, Limbaugh and Hannity.. obviously
"Crazy wasn't it.. I couldn't believe it either.. but mostly they were just parroting Beck, Limbaugh and Hannity.. obviously"
And some on the right wonder why they are being thought of as racists. I watched this video and noticed that most of them had no idea that what they have been told by their clown leaders is WRONG. They didn't know Reagan had the first czar. The woman calling for an expansion of medicare doesn't know she is FOR single payer. It's a shame that the republican clowns in Congress and in the media have these people so confused that they have absolutely no idea about what is really going on. The best comment, IMO, was from the woman who admitted she'd found out some things about the republicans and won't be one much longer. I guess once she discovered what was really going on with them, she began to think for herself and decided she wanted no more of it.
And yes, Annette, teh stupid is strong in the South. I live in GA where there has been a lot of rain and flooding, mostly in North GA, quite a bit in south GA, where most of the folks hate the sound of the president's name and think he can't do anything right. Well, today our governor, Sonny Perdue, announced that he'd written President Obama to ask for federal disaster funding. I find it to be the height of hypocrisy that the same people who hate him are now waiting for help from him to get their homes and highways repaired, and I bet they're not saying the government is too large, the government spends too much money, we don't need the government to do anything for us, cut spending, the deficit is too big, etc., but I've got to give our governor credit, he has not said or done foolish things like Jindal, Pawlenty, or Perry. He has not been Obama-bashing.Great post as usual, Annette. Thanks.

Good Morning Ms.Annette!!
This was absolutely HILARIOUS, the best I have seen yet! Thanx for posting this!! These poor folk's have no clue what is happening to them...and who the real enemies are though..I reckon they dont know much of anything when it comes to these matter's.I love listening to Glenn Beck myself... listened to him for a few year's actually...I think he is funny...I alway's get a laugh out of him...and Rush as well...one of my favourite's though who is even harder than them would be Michael Savage. Now hear me out...I love their idea's and their outrage in show's...I sure as Hell dont agree with them on most issue's though, I was an Obama supporter before he was even in the run-up. But listening to these folk's is alot of fun...and their sign's and costume's are hilarious too! :)
Thank Ms.Annette .........
Great vid, Annette. Ignorance on parade.
Maji, I am glad you stopped by.. I knew you were in GA and was hoping to hear from you.. Glad to know you are ok.
Yes, it is amazing the very same ones who like to put the government down as doing too much are the first ones with their hands out.. Rick Perry a classic example.. and if a hurricane hits LA watch Jindall be first in line with his grubby little paws..
I haven't heard much out of GA's Gov... so maybe he is a little better than most of them... That's a good thing in my book.. sounds like he is one of the few.
Ranch Chimp.. I agree, they can be funny.. I just get so angry listening to them I have to turn them off....lol Now I do listen to the clips and make it fine. So it's ok in small doses...lol I was like you.. struck by how these people just seemed to parrot the things they are hearing from the Talk Radio and from the idiots.. and it just made me ill.. I really can't believe they are that lacking in brains that they have to get their education from the radio and TeeVee Machine.. it's just sad.
TomCat.. as always.. great to have you and your comment.. Yes, it was ignorance on parade.. That's exactly what struck me too..
I forgot to mention I got this video from Broadway Carl.. I need to credit him and I forgot.. guess I better get that done and I need to apologize to him profoundly.
Maji...the most egregious example of what you cite has to be the interior west. They claim to be rugged individualists who disdain the federal government, but most of them wouldn't/couldn't live there were it not for federal grazing subsidies and dam building. The west is the welfare state run amok -- a massive transfer of wealth from parts of the country that need the money to a part whose output is so insubstantial that it can never pay it back.
Hi Annette,
There is an award waiting for you, so swing by MP when you get a chance, Girlfriend!
Thanks for the consistently great read - I look forward to your posts, my politically savvy friend! :)

I'm sure he appreciates the update and apology Annette. Hat-tips are always in order.
Yes, they are.. and I was neglectful in not giving him one.. I normally do, I just got in a hurry and being tired forgot.. and that is no excuse just my error.. that's why I tried to be up front and acknowledge it.. I have always tried to be open and honest about things.. that's just the way I am.. If I screw up, I let everyone know.. I am not like some on the left or the right who try to pretend it didn't happen when they make a mistake.. no sense, cause everyone knows..
I agree. If I told you I had never screwed up, I'd be a Republican. :-)
Yep, they would be the ones who usually claim to be perfect and who never mess up in any way.. it is always someone else's fault.. or else it is just IOKIYAR....lol
for decades we have neglected the education system in this country (and end with crap like NCLB) - and this is what you end up with
you cannot talk to stupid - it is hopeless
Yes, you are so correct in your statement D'Cap.. I think MommaPolitico did a post a few days ago about that.. the NCLB and how it has produced some winners, like Sarah Palin...for one in paticular.. and how it is producing some other idiots on parade in general. It is sad to see this happening.. Most people are oblivious to it, and really don't even care how we have dumbed down our country.. but we have and it is telling.
