It's not the media blackout, STUPID!!

I am not sure of the statistics of how many Americans are really, truly stupid. “STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES” states Forrest Gump. What qualifies for a person to be clinically stupid? Is it not being able to read, write, or do arithmetic? Is it a lack of common sense? Could it be a clinical diagnosis?  Is it a conspiracy theory that we should research? Stupid scientists stating that it may be so many prescription drugs being prescribed for clinically diagnosed Stupid People? Could it have something to do with the quality of a state funded education? If you are reading this article, consider yourself blessed that you don’t really need to be concerned, or do you? Maybe I need to be concerned? Let’s hope not. However, being one of the few smart individuals of the non-drug induced, educated Americans that can still have the skill set of being able to critically think, we can come together to this profound reality: that indeed the fall of the republic is notbecause of the media blackout taking place. It is because WE AMERICANS HAVE BEEN DECLARED OFFICIALLY STUPID!

From Bear/Stearnes and JP Morgan to Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, from AIG and the Big 3 Automakers to the monster that was TARP, we as citizens were on the hook to the tune of 1.6 Trillion dollars. (that’s with a “T”, folks) Then, Bush handed the baton to Obama, and our current president picked right up where our former one left off. Another 1.13 Trillion was printed shortly after Obama took the oath of office in early 2009, when he rolled out his economic plan that projected $8T more to be thrown in the pot...continued HERE
