Kathleen Parker - Voters Fail the Test - washingtonpost.com: "So much for the wisdom of The People.
A new report from the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) on the nation's civic literacy finds that most Americans are too ignorant to vote.
Out of 2,500 American quiz-takers, including college students, elected officials and other randomly selected citizens, nearly 1,800 flunked a 33-question test on basic civics. In fact, elected officials scored slightly lower than the general public with an average score of 44 percent compared to 49 percent."

And what is America's number one rated news show? Fox news. What radio commentator tells his audience to let him inform his listeners of the "important stuff". Mr. Limbaugh. Who has the number one rated opinion show on TV. Mr O'Reilly. I think we can safely draw a correlation between your IQ and where you get your information. I read somewhere that over 40% of Fox News viewers still think Iraq has WMD and we just haven't found it yet. Rush Limbaugh has told his listeners of a study that proves oil is being made as we speak at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. This guy has millions of people that believe everything he say's. And people wonder why Sarah Palin is so popular. She is just like World Wide Wrestling.
