'Wrong, sorry, let's try another question' Part II
I noticed that the No. 1 emailed story at the NYT is headlined 'Dumb and Dumber: Are Americans Hostile to Knowledge?' ... I know, I know. Another story about the elites calling the rest of America dumb. It's a tired 'perennial' indeed. Anyway, it reminded me of Armchair Gen. Brighton Center's post the other week about European journalists parachuting into the U.S. to find dumb Americans -- when they have their own 'Wrong, sorry, let's try another question' problems. ...
Update -- Armchair Gen. Brighton Center adds: "It gets worse: 1 in 4 Brits say Churchill didn't exist. Well, the Labor Party propaganda machine has apparently done it's job. Great lead on the article." ... I liked the poll results on Eleanor Rigby. ...
