Well, the new poll says the little bass turds aren’t interested in patriotism anymore. They all want to be like the Swedish Meatball Thurnburg or Taylor Not So Swift.

I gotta try this myself. No way these are fair examples of average intelligence of average Americans. Spring break on a beach in Florida? The average person there wakes up to coffee and xanax and first alcoholic drink by noon. This ain’t a fair test. Gotta luv the foxy reporter tho.

Your fourth question can almost be a trick question. We declared independence from Great Britain in 1776, but we still had to win the war, so technically it wasn’t until 1783.

The questions are too hard. A more suitable question: Who is buried in Grant’s tomb?

I remember a number of years ago a female conservative was on Hannity (Can’t remember which one) who said she went to her niece’s high school graduation. She asked some of the graduates questions. For, “Who did the United States win its independence from?”, the number one answer was Vietnam. Blew me away.

If we don’t teach the foundations of patriotism, we cannot expect young people to be patriots.

“Where was the Vietnam War fought?”

Trick question. It was LOST in Washington DC.

Did they ask them, "Who washed Washington's wash, when Washington's...you know the thing"?

Why remember something that's not relevant. It's a waste of brain space.

Yes...I went to school...learned all that stuff...I'm 79...yet to use it for any purpose. It becomes trivia in the real world.
