I'm seriously wondering. This is worst than a military dictator coming to power, because he's been voted for twice as president. What society has United States Become.

George W. Bush was dumb, but he was funny.

He wasn't 'elected' so much as he was 'appointed'. How people still believe we elect our presidents is beyond me. That is so heavily gamed... Electoral college? Please. That is like a bedtime story for children. Our presidents are figureheads with no real executive power. Doesn't matter who ends up in office, the multi-nationals are running the show.

I'm just trying to understand the level of stupidity, but i don't think i can go beyond that point.

Because the right wing and conservatives in this country have established a fear of education and intelligence amongst their voting base. They have popularized a culture of stupidity and ignorance and wrapped it in the vestments of bravado and machoism, and warned their followers that those who know more than you are dangerous; that knowledge is danger.
It's sick. It needs to be corrected.

If you really want to understand how he became president, read What's the Matter with Kansas? by Thomas Frank.

That's the thing. I'm feeling disgusted. We aren't evolving,w e are simply trying to get more intelligent. Common sense is out there somewhere and i'm pretty sure we all know George was an idiot. Isn't the world rational. Just a bit, i hope?
I'm losing faith in humanity...

It seems most of the English speaking world is regressing.

Hahaha oh man, every time I laugh at how ridiculous he was, I suddenly remember that he took our country to two wars on false pretenses and completely ruined our economy.
