So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth. Revelation 3:16

Poorly educated, terribly informed, intellectually deficient and downright stupid people need idols.

People who need idols are what gave us The Worst President Ever in 2008 with not so much as a slightly critical glance at his qualifications, background, or philosophy.

They sell stupidity to gullible dummies, teaching them who to blame for their misery.

No, that would be the democRATS as pumped up by the MSM.

Poorly educated, terribly informed, intellectually deficient and downright stupid people need idols. They feel angry, frustrated, ignored, cheated and disillusioned by so much going on in American society. They find the emotional, political and philosophical rants by talk show, loud mouth celebrities matching and justifying their feelings.

I agree, Chris Mattews, Keith Olbermann, Rosie O'Donnell and Rachel Madcow fans are SO insipid and shallow...

It needed a BARF ALERT. So if 18% of Republicans do not know that Democrats control the legislative houses, does that mean that 82% DO know that? How many dems know? Seems they don’t know or forgot who has controlled them for the past few years.

“Poorly educated, terribly informed, intellectually deficient and downright stupid people need idols.”

I guess thats why Obama ran a rational and reasoned approach to governing while maintaining the dignity of the individual? That McCain with his hero worship and empty platitudes worked so well on the poorly educated? Damn republicans sucking off their neighbor and worshiping an Arizona community organizer. Yep, idol says it all Joel.

I am no conservative or liberal and I know I sound terribly condescending and will be viewed as an elitist by those dummies

You are a liberal; why be so sheepish about the truth? Your whole argument would be toothless if you didnt throw that false caveat in there, wouldnt it? Liar, liar pants on fire.

Where to start? Too high of a mountain for me to even make an attempt. Whoever suggested that there are multiple universes was correct.

Pew Center Research poll results that showed 18 percent of Republicans do not know that the Democrats control the House of Representatives and 35 percent don't know who the vice President is"

Huh? I would love to see the poll he is citing. I don't believe this at all

Conservatives "worship" no one! You don't see signs with peoples faces on them, you do with Obama-ism. Conservatives don't have a mantra they chant, with Obama, it was "Yes we can!". Conservatives don't wrap up their self esteem in the visage and personage of another, like Liberals have done with Obama.

No, friends, it is not Conservatives who worship idols, it is Liberals.

“And then he stuck out his tongue and mooned us.”

That sums it up pretty well. Amazing that we are getting so much dumber through an education system that is run primarily by liberals.

In answer to this article, everyone should read this about narcissists. Here is a sample of what is contained on the page:

We are in a spiritual crisis on our planet because the dark hearts are ruling the world. They are the ones who are only able to see the world through the eyes of personal gain, without concern for the whole of humanity. The dark hearts are empty vessels that need to be filled with outside energy, power and material wealth. They are truly godless beings because they have closed off all access to the God force, or to the light of God/Goddess/Spirit or whatever you are comfortable calling it.
