Reply #26: It is a deliberate level of stupidity.

None of them are that stupid, with the exception of Sarah Palin. Not even the Shrub. It is an act. So they can claim intelligence is "elitist" therefore justifying cuts in schools. It is folksy nonsense to extract $$$s and votes.

Feed the dumb shits who follow them anything they want to hear, get them to believe that the reason they were crap at science at school was a "God thing" and not a "them thing". Extract money.

Don't forget that Beck got his idiot followers, most of whom are on low incomes, to donate $$s to a lobby group that wants to outsource the very jobs that they work at.
