Latest Pew poll. 20% of Americans think President Obama is a Muslim. Are we really this stupid or does that 20% only get their news from Fox, and have never read a paper or a book in their lives?
Not that it matters if he were a Muslim, but it’s just the rank stupidity of the whole thing that leaves me breathless, depressed and despairing.
We have Palin out there every day celebrating being anti-intellectual, and the Right warning against “elites” (I guess that means college educated people).
I wanted to go see this movie AGORA about the burning of the library at Alexandria, but I couldn’t bring myself to go. We seem to be living that reality now.
