Seriously, they are both former military, my dad was in for like 30 years, how do they like the drunk secretary? I get that he saw combat, but being in combat doesn’t automatically make you qualified for… well anything except therapy and medical care.

    Could it be that they’re morons? I mean. No offense to those in the armed services, but there’s a reason the minimum IQ requirements to enlist is roughly 20 points below the average score.

    This doesn’t mean that our armed service members are all idiots, but it does illustrate the fact that there idiots allowed to walk among the ranks.

      Thats the thing! They most definitely are not! My dad has a degree in computer science, (never did anything with it) and my mom has a degree in … well accounting, but she is smart, I promise. I think they are just so incredibly gullible. You know that saying, its easy to trick someone with a lie but impossible to convince someone of the truth, or something like that. I think deep down, they know they are wrong, but they dont want to admit that they part of the problem.

        Intelligence and common sense are not mutually exclusive. Dr. Oz is an accomplished surgeon, and a complete idiot.

        Rudy Giuliani passed the NY State Bar Exam and is the poster child for window-licking buffoonery.
