I find this appalling. These are the people who are electing Republicans to high office? I am fast growing favorable to a voter intelligence test.

To be fair, in another poll, Democrats couldn’t identify Harry Reid as the Senate majority leader. OTOH, I think that Reid has a problem with that as well.

As Kos pointed out, we should make every effort to find a place for those who want to secede, name it Bagofhammersstan, and move them all there. They aren’t real Americans, anyway.

To support us real Americans (this one, anyway), order your Cheney-Palin 2012 bumper sticker:
