Americans are all idiots and spineless sheeple..... and the ones that do try to make a difference are locked up...or ridiculed into obscurity.... so long as we allow it they will control us...
I don't think we're all idiots. I think a lot of us are too busy making mortgage payments and just keeping heads above water to dissect the issues. It's easy to listen to a radio show or a talking head on TV and make decisions based on that. We have to acknowledge that we do have power and exercise it. Seriously people. If you're not contacting your elected representatives regularly you're not doing your job. Don't worry about getting on the nutjob list. A lot of Congresspeople truly do vote based on feedback from their constituents. It's too easy just to throw your hands up and declare helplessness. Truly a self-defeating attitude.

Half of us are pretty smart, but theres no excuse for the other half..Even long hours at work is no excuse for being completely uninformed and easily minipulated...

All you have to do is look at the videos made by Leno, Ledtterman, Stern and others to see how stupid people are..

Sure there are stupid people. But there are a lot of crazy smart people out there too. America has a lot to offer and I'm not ready to write her off yet.

Well, mtnman is right - those that try and show you what is going on are considered crazy.... I mean, look at the people that have been screaming about the bankers for years.

Most just believe what the network tells em.

and don't forget that Ron Paul told us 2+ years ago that the FED Reserve needs to be abolished,, but the media didn't like that so we weren't told on a national level...

people will do what the media and the gov. tell them because they can't think for themselves.. Snopes ain't the place to figure out what is true or not..
