  Every so often, more times than not, I receive a phone call or an email from a friend with the statement, " Are people really this fucking stupid???" And given each instance which inspires the note, I have to agree, "Yes, unfortunately, they are."
  Hey, I'm not professing to be an intellectual genius, far from it; but I do perceive myself as someone with a fair amount of intelligence and a great deal of street smarts and common sense. But as time passes, these characteristics are becoming rarer and rarer in our society and it ought to scare the living crap out of you when you think about how already screwed we are as a country and what we place importance on and it's only gonna get alot worse as each day passes.
  Therefore, it's time again for me to douse your brain with more useless fodder for your consideration and pondering.  But I think with this article, whether out loud or while stifling a giggle or two, you can relate to this article because we are all facing continuous examples of "The Dumbing Down of Amerika".
 First, I'm going to pick on my own gender...the female population.
 In the Sixties, during the social revolution, people fought hard to abolish the thought that females were second class citizens; their voices, their thoughts, their presence were imperative to the growth and future of the country and the women took pride upon being realistic, sensible, educated, strong and a force to be reckoned with.  

Now, unfortunately, it seems my sisters in society are gravitating towards the notion that hair extensions, fake tits, injected lips, and spray on tans are going to take them far in the world and they don't need to rely on much more. And what's worse is that men are giving them permission to be nothing more than arm candy because, by God and all that's holy, tis better to have a hot woman on your arm than one who might be a tad bit smarter than you are!  Then when their bank accounts are cleaned out, they lost their homes and cars and custody of their kids they wonder what went wrong...poor poor you!
  Take this video for example. God bless her for having a nice voice and a sweet personality, but who is the George W. Bush clone who handed Kelly Pickler a diploma from high school???  Was he busy drinking kool-aid the four years she was in high school? When a fifth grader looks at you like, "Oh, you poor, pathetic creature", it's time for you to go back to night school.

And speaking of public education and somebody missing the boat, check out this embarrassment by a young woman representing the state of South Carolina during a beauty pageant.  Can we say, "you're going out into the sun a little bit too much?"

  THAT'S THE ANSWER!!  THAT'S WHY WE ARE FUCKED AS A NATION...WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MAPS!!!  Dumbass, have you heard of the internet or google or a book or anything other than a tanning booth or a beauty salon???
Christ on a flaming fiberboard crutch, someone let me kick the shit out of her, ok???
  Ok, I know there's alot of you women going, "DD, not fair, we know some cow ass dumb men, too" and I agree, stupidity knows no gender barrier.  Allow me to proceed to the testosterone toys for examples of their terminal brain farts.
  On March 13 of this year, in Ness City, Kansas, NBC news reported a story about a man who called authorities seeking help for his 35 year old girlfriend who had refused to come out of his bathroom for the last TWO YEARS!!
   Now she just didn't just camp out there, ladies and gents, she did so sitting upon the toilet and everyday her boyfriend would bring her her meals and ask her if she would like to come out of the loo and vacate it, to which she would respond, "maybe tomorrow".
  When emergency rescue teams were finally called in, they found her sitting on the throne, pants down around her ankles, her legs atrophied, and her ass grown onto the toilet seat.   It took a pry bar at the hospital to separate her from the toilet seat and the chief officer on the scene, Sheriff Whipple (omg, yes, i can hear the "don't squeeze the charmin jokes" already) stated he thought she "might" have some mental problems.  Ya think, Sheriff Whipple? Maybe just a tad?  And how about the boyfriend?  I hope to God he had another bathroom to use or was he a good old boy who moved the dishes in the sink before he pissed in it?  It took him TWO FUCKING YEARS TO FIGURE OUT THEY MIGHT NEED SOME HELP THERE??? Stay tuned next week when Sheriff Whipple locates the Loch Ness Monster!  I wanna party with these people cuz there's gotta be a million and one kodak moments in the making just waiting to be captured!!!! 
   Now you might be saying, there's no way you can top that for being dumb.  Oh, my children of the revolution, you bet your eyeliner and hairspray I can!!  Let's discuss one of the latest whack-a-ding-hoys to jump on the political band wagon and this cat makes George "The Chimp" Bush look like fucking Bill Gates in brillance.
   Allow me to submit for your approval, 49 year old Jonathan Sharkey, aka Vlad Dracula, who is running for President in 2008 on the independent ticket.
   Not only is Jonny proclaiming he is a direct descendent of Vlad Dracula, he also boosts of being a musician and a wrestler and king of the vampyres.
   Now, hey, we're all legends in our own minds, but people are falling for this dude's platform and his spewings and this is what is scarey.  Here's an excerpt from one of his blogs on myspace : "Additionally besides Impaling, I have a more crueler form of torture and death for some. Those who have really crossed my people or me, your death will be slow and painful. I will have you shackled and entombed without air, food, or water. I will do this, after I place them in a cage, and make them watch me kill those closest to them. I will place the dismembered body parts and the decapitated heads of their loved ones into the tomb, so while they are dying, they will smell the rotting flesh of their loved ones.
 
I challenge the media to print this decree by me, so anyone comtemplating attacking my people (Vampyres, Witches, Pagans, Wiccans, Satanists, Luciferians, Lycans, etc...) or me, will know their fate. As well as the fate of their loved ones.<br style="display:none"/> Needless to say, if someone attacks one of my loved ones, the torture, beating and dismemberment of their loved ones will be as cruel as I can make it!"

 Now Jonny has 202 friends on that page following his nonsense, and I signed up as one just to keep an eye on the freaky shit this guy spews cus if you wikipedia this cat, you'll read more that will blow your ever lovin mind!  Who needs war for oil when we can kill people with wooden stakes just for saying "I don't like black clothing and sucking blood"...God Bless Amerika !!
   Continuing on, and to give more examples of male's with questionable intelligence, I think you'll laugh out loud at this little piece, satyr or not, because somethings a picture is worth a thousand words....enjoy!
So now you can see why some of us think the world is getting scarier with each passing moment while the gray matter of human life melts and runs down the sewer drains of hope.  Is this not a good argument for why Amerika is no longer "land of the free and home of the brave" but rather "land of the greed and home of the afraid"?
When we can sign atheletes up for multimillion dollar contracts and they can't even read the blessed thing, we're losing sight of the preservation of our society.   If we allow stupidity to be the "norm", the rest of us are fucked, big time.  "Madame President Toilet Seat Bound to Your Ass, homelessness is rampant, you must come out of the toilet and address this issue"...can you imagine hearing, "Maybe tomorrow"?  That's right....that's the answer we get now.   See, I told ya, stupid people can kill the country!
Be strong, be proud, be wise and make a difference.  Like the song goes, "Teach Your Children Well"!
