"How Can 59,054,087 People Be So DUMB?" – November 4 headline, London's Daily Mirror.
"How do you make a rational political pitch to people who have put that part of their brain on hold? No wonder Bush won … . Anything that shrinks the ranks of the clueless would be helpful." – Bob Herbert, in The New York Times.
"The election results reflect the decision of the right wing to cultivate and exploit ignorance in the citizenry … . Ignorance and bloodlust have a long tradition in the United States, especially in the red states." – Novelist Jane Smiley, in Slate
"By any objective standard, you had to be spectacularly stupid to support Bush … . If you voted for Bush, we accept that we have to share the country with you … . But don't demand our respect." – Cartoonist and columnist Ted Rall.
Deer Daily Mirror, Bob Herbert, Jane Smiley, Ted Rall, and all y'all,
Us here in Bush Country sorry. We sorry for being so dumb, voting for dumb President Bush. We know we not so smart. But ain't nothing we can do about it. We try hard. Honest injun! Stay up on current events. Watch Fox News and "Entertainment Tonite." Read Weekly World News — and not just stuff about Bat-Boy, neither. But we no match for likes of you in brains department. Heck, we barely just learn to walk upright. Grandparents' knuckles still all red and swole up.
But like we say, it not our fault. Must be something in Americans What Got Disabilities Act about having case of stupids, right?
