"Americans are fools. They are insecure, frightened sheep who enthusiastically embrace their collective ignorance. Most do not possess any real intellectual curiosity or genuine introspective self-analysis aside from what convenience will best suit their immediate, selfish desires. They anxiously await the next cultural "fad" in order to define their lives and aren't interested in anything beyond their own provincial world view."

And ya all wonder why they say that liberals are elitist!

As some have hinted above, the strain of anti-intellectualism has been around since the founding of America(in various forms, of course).

But for all of our 'stupidity' we sure as hell created a great country!
