   Hooray, South Carolina….I can go back to bagging my head before saying where I live now.

   So 90% of these people who are watching “fox news” can’t even pronounce the words they are says and if im not mistaken “Muslim” is the Arabic term for “one who submits to God”. These people are seriously behind in culture and education. I think we should blow up all sides of south carolina and make it its own country and let these back woods confederates have at it. Lets see how that goes.

   Interesting. Re: the lady who prefers a male leader and cites the Biblical creation of woman from man’s rib. I have always preferred the premise that man was the prototype. Good, but not quite meeting requirements. Woman is the finished product, based on but improving the prototype.

   These are some scary people; I wonder how many advocating for abolishing Medicare and Social Security are either benefiting, or have family (grandparents, parents) who are benefiting from these programs

   I would mock these people – and more than likely will, at some point – though my first reaction to this is that what we are seeing is a national tragedy.

   The level of ignorance (treatable, with effort) and outright stupidity (lifelong, incurable) on display says awful things about America. And not only don’t they give a damn about it, they seem to be proud of it.

   I do recall hearing on multiple occasions that the US has a functional adult illiteracy rate of around 20%, and seeing this makes me wonder about its geographic distribution.
