Idiocracy http://www.youtube.com/... It was so "true to life" that I feel I should share with you my impressions of what would life be like if the republicans had their way.. Yes it's to the extreme but it actually makes sense in the dumbing down of America. Let me tell you a little bit about it
This average guy in the military, actually the most average guy in the entire military and a prostitute in the private sector agree to an experiment that would put them on ice for a year and test the results of the experiment. Unfortunately, the project was scrapped and they awoke in 2500 due to a garbage avalanche in which their pods were opened.
I am writing about this because during the course of the movie, it describes no, portrays the typical mentality of those living 500 years from now when Mr. Average guy and woman are the most intelligent human beings on earth.
I think about this when Sarah Palin comes to mind announcing today that she might try and save the party if things don't get better by November. Imagine, as I do, Sarah Palin, a half term governor of Alaska who left her elected position is ready to save the day and the party. Was it not obvious when a crazy John McCain thought that it might work to have a female as vice president. Actually, I don't believe it was his idea at all, but a promotion by the right wing to get a woman out there to compete with Hilary Clinton. Imagine the idiots that thought that would work. These same idiots are out there today,( Rick Santorum) suggesting that all funding for public schools should end and that it should be a neighborhood decision, not a federal or state decision regarding the educating of children, that birth control should be an issue in a presidential campaign, that government entitlement programs like Social Security should be hacked to death as well as medicare.. excuse me, but those are not entitlements, they are paid for by the recipients in case someone doesn't know that, and that there is no place for big government anymore. Just gun toting religious assholes leading the way from their pickup trucks and ... well watch that movie. "Idiocracy"
