a $15 million construction project to keep a rare spider from evolving to extinction ... You might live in a country run by idiots.
If you have to show identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor or check out a library book, but not to vote who runs the government ... You might live in a country run by idiots.

ten rounds, but gives 20 F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt ... You might live in a country run by idiots.

more ... You might live in a country run by idiots.

exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable ... You might live in a country run by idiots.

are left in filth and drug infested “homes”... You might live in a country run by idiots.

Politics can only attract people who think talking has more value than creating something, people who'd be the mid or top manager in the private sector who advances by kissing ass or stealing people's ideas because that's the only way for them to succeed. Some are idiots, some are frauds, and a tiny portion is really worth something.
Only in politics can someone show his private part and try to be the next NYC mayor. In the private sector, the guy would've been fired and would have a very hard time finding a new job if employers knew of that.
We've really reached the fork in the road. We can take the hard trail towards maintaining a Constitutional Republic, or we can take the moving sidewalk towards Idiocracy.
Our society has devolved into one fueled by contrived drama and cheap sensationalism; one where even most of the politically attuned rely on soundbites and bumper stickers over research and logic.
"I have concluded that we live in a country run by idiots."
Well, that's what happens when the votes of idiots outnumber the rest. How much fun would it be, out driving around, if the DMV just issued Driver's Licenses to anyone,carte blanche? OK, so why then is electing those who will have influence on all aspects of our lives and voting on issues equally important treated with such indifference, comparatively speaking? Why should everyone have to suffer from the bad judgement of "IDIOTS"???? Free cell phones, anyone?
I agree with Joe, wholeheartedly.
Weak-minded, easily influenced morons.
As Ron White has stated: "You can't fix stupid. Stupid is FOREVAH."
