...that the inability to recognize or admit ignorance seems impossible to overcome.

Ahhh, but there is a vast difference between ignorance and stupidity.

"Ahhh, but there is a vast difference between ignorance and stupidity."


One of my favorite quotes, but I can not find the original reference, is "Ignorance can be cured, but stupid's forever."

Oh, yes, please allow me to illustrate.

Ignorance is not knowing who the president of the United States is.

Stupidity is knowing that the president is Barack HUSSEIN Obama, knowing every detail of his official story, his favorite passtime, what his opinion is on the issues of the day, the names of his daughters and all sorts of other things about him and voting to elect him TWICE.

Ignorance is not knowing what the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is.

Stupidity is knowing that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is the legislation creating what is commonly known as “Obamacare” and believing that it has something to do with patient protection and affordable care.
