Bill Maher says America is a Stupid Country., page 1

First, the CNN interview on the Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer:



Then on his own show, Real Time with Bill Maher:



While I'm sure I'll catch holy hell for this, the man said exactly what I've been thinking for quite some time. You can see it here on ATS. Some of the utter BS that many put out as 'facts' here just proves this point.

I'm surprised Bill Maher had the guts to state the truth so bluntly. So many US Americans couldn't point to Iraq on a map. So many Americans think that 30 seconds of thought is enough to figure out if a candidate is worth voting for at the polling place.

Just because Bill Maher thinks Americans are stupid does not mean he does not care for America. I know American's are stupid but I still care for them and I'm still living in the USA. It wasn't meant to be an insult so much as an actual fact when you compare the test scores among various countries.

If I weren't lazy I'd go out and pull up the charts, but I think its common knowledge at this point that Americans really are stupid, from an IQ/test scores/general world knowledge perspective.

You know, I do think america is full of idiots. But not for the reasons this jerk off is stating.

He's essentially saying "Anyone who isn't liberal is a moron"

But I don't understand why anyone watches him. He's just the liberal version of the un-funny Dennis Miller.

Well to be honest I'm not so surprised. After all why do you think they canceled his other show "Politically Incorrect"? People were saying stuff like "the terrorists were cowards for flying the planes into the buildings" and he said something like "Well it takes a certain type of courage to kill yourself" (not exactly that... but you get the point). I know that he probably likes money as much as the next guy... but then again he could take the money and try to please everyone. But he doesn't.

I think to say that a person or persons are stupid they would have to make not one or two but a number of mistakes that are very similar. I do believe he is right. But as Pericles said "To live in poverty is not the greatest disgrace, to do nothing to avoid it, is." The same could be said about intelligence.
