I blame public education, for everything.

My guess is that the Founders were aware of the dumby factor and tried to hedge against a country's usurpation by dumbies. But ours should be a lesson learned: there is no fool-proof way to make the world safe from the erruption of stupidity.
So I'll take a stab at answering your question. We have become so because we are prone to American optimism: with a little bit of tinkering we can make it work.

Good post.
It seems that the government is only 'going through the motions' to protect American lives, since they have not begun MASSIVE deportaion of illegals.
They are more worried about economic collapse, because almost all of them are also BUSINESSMEN.

Pride of Opinion and a lack of true humility towards God.
I dont blame Clinton or the Public schools or any of that crap.
The majority of everyday Americans have become stupid because they chose folly over reality.

Welcome to the board. Youll probably find that youll have to go through a little hazing here. I went through it for about six months. Its sort of like basic training in the Marines. The survivors come out stronger than they went in.

How Have We Become a Nation of Dumbies?I'm guessing you're the one on the right......
To: FreedomFriend
As it stands, it appears that all it'd take would be for some honorable, dutiful men to occupy our government. I think great progress has been with the election of President Bush. He has proven himself to be even more than I hoped for. IMO, it seems that order has been restored.
P.S. I'm sorry to say I laughed as everyone was working you over. Most people here have a good sense of humor, others are just well... I'm new too, but I consider that a good thing. All day I am old, until I log on. It's good to feel "new" again. I wish I could find the site where I get to be "new and improved". Anyway, I thought I'd give you one reasonable post, now you're on your own. LOL
