Honey, I'm confused

[resist]

about why we went to war in Iraq. It looks like there were no WMDs, so what was the reason?

Martha, get real, it was the oil and economic growth for the country.

Well it didn't work, did it? gas is up fifteen cents a gallon. And don't we have fewer jobs than before the war?

It wasn't JUST that. Remember terrorism, Martha? Duh?

Oh wow, Henry. So they DID find out that Saddam was behind Sept. 11? He was, like, training Al Qaeda in Iraq?

No, not Sept. 11, Martha - don't you listen? It was preemptive!

But without any WMDs, Henry . . . oh, nevermind; he DID look cute in that uniform on the aircraft carrier, didn't he?

Damn right, Martha. Just let those wackos over there bring 'em on. Bush knows how to keep our country safe.

I guess so Henry, but now that everybody else in the world is mad at us, doesn't that kind of make us less safe?

God, Martha, have you been drinkin' that damn commie French wine again?

No, dear, its just so confusing. . . . . . . .

Henry? Do you understand our fearless leader's prescription plan?

1. You've perfectly articulated

The mentality of scores of Americans. I can imagine this conversation happening in living rooms across the U.S. :scared:

3. But then

So why do we allow them to vote? If Americans are as incredibly stupid as they appear to be, then they should stay out of it. I mean, aren't we taking this equality thing too far?:)

4. We allow everyone (in principle) to vote because

they deserve those results.

5. Equal Opportunity

To be stupid. That's one of the foundations of the U.S.

Not to mention that quantitative measurement could be a bitch. Can't go by education, because I know Ph.D.s who believe everything they hear on Fox as well as high school dropouts who know the government has been lying to Americans for years. So what kind of measures do we use -- can you quantify critical thinking skills? :evilgrin:

:hi:

2. You better get back in the kitchen Martha I'm hungry

When is our next kid due anyway? I will buy you a pair of shoes just as soon as I get a job. Been down on my luck lately but thank God we have a man of God leading us. No back talk now or I'll smack you one.

6. This is only partially tongue in cheek

I really am genuinely interested in what the GOP's answer to that uestion. Inasmuch as they have forfeited the issue of WMDs, never seriously accused Saddam of being a major bankroller of terrorism; and would never admit to its being about oil - what is the current position? Do you think the great unwashed majority notice?
