Are we raising a bunch of idiots? Why is it Americans seem to know so little about things? Are our schools that bad or are Americans that stupid? http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/oreilly/index.html#/v/3218282898001
School is training and its doing an excellent job of creating a broke back population of flag waving obedient debt slaves. Most spent 15k hours learning about this magical story of a young nation manifesting its destiny and saving the world on two separate occasions, while at the same time burning any trails to independent curiosity without prior notice... ... lucky us, when we grow up theres experts to do the thinking for us, a hightech megaphone (corp media) to tell us how things are, and a political class to deem anything not mandated is illegal. Education is for the birds, the Bachelor is on.
Not idiots, I think O'Reilly summed it up when he talked about all the distractions people are faced with today. It must break O'Reilly's heart, being the established student of history that he is
One of the very limited things that I find enjoyable about driving a cab is Las Vegas is that I can "interview" people while we're driving around. I find that most people are informed only about those things that they deal with. As long as the war isn't in my back yard, or the depression doesn't interfere with the soccer schedule, they couldn't care less. Those who are concerned are predictably around 50+. They've seen the dumbing down of America first hand. I ask them: "what would you have said to anyone who even suggested that the SCOTUS would one day even discuss gay marriage?" They unanimously agree that it would have been ridiculous. That's just one glaring example of the way it has all gone straight into the ******* cesspool. I talk to people under 30, and they ALL act like I'm wasting time on stupid talk. All, that is, but those who are in the military. Most of them who will talk are in agreement with me that it sure looks like this whole process has been deliberate. This little story puts it all into a perspective that many don't want to consider: http://beforeitsnews.com/survival/2...cial-world-2510926.html?currentSplittedPage=1 Read all 3 pages, and THINK about it....
How ignorant are Americans, look closely, it's right under your nose. http://www.politicalforum.com/showthread.php?t=343725 As for Bill oh wimpy wuss Reilly, he is on the wrong side so much, a stopped clock is more accurate than he is! He is the embodiment of ignorance! LOL! If you listen to him, you are part of the problem. [video=youtube_share;CzWXzuoKjSU]http://youtu.be/CzWXzuoKjSU[/video] [video=youtube_share;PieE6wxEtBY]http://youtu.be/PieE6wxEtBY[/video] Yeah, this guy, who can't even hold his own on FACTS against any number of other people from comedians to officials has the gall to talk about other people's ignorance? Really? O'reilly? Hahahahahahaha! Please go watch something besides Faux News once in a while! You might learn something useful!
Someone who isn't from your country shouldn't know more about that document that founded it than you do. Shame on you America.
You put up two instances of O'Reilly disagreeing with people. He maybe wrong in your thinking, but not in others. Like drugs. Just because you think drugs should be legal, it doesn't make O'Reilly stupid to believe they shouldn't. Both those videos are about opinion, not facts. That's the trouble with Americans, they can't get their facts right.
Here we have interviews with school kids right outside of school, asking questions most of them should know and they don't. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2fHQ9eULzk
Indoctrination is alive and well in the school system. The unions run it. Any doubt they wouldn't agree on a textbook that dealt with the true story of unions? Beating blacks that tried to work? - - - Updated - - - Oreilly is OK with legal MJ. He just doesn't sound like it on TV but has said so multiple times.
Here we have adults that are signing a petition to repeal our Bill of Rights. Is that nuts or what? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0he0cqHH20
lulz... lots of anger towards America. does it (*)(*)(*)(*) people off that much to know we still have the best country in the world. We are the elephant in the room.... and everyone else hates us and will find any fault they can with us, but the fact remains... we are still the elephant
