And the Majority Party in the House of Representatives is All the Proof We Need

America's problem: We're too dumb. (CNN, 10/14/2013)

Dumb and dumber but not dumbestYou see, while we were busy waving our angry finger at Washington, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) released its findings from the Survey of Adult Skills. The group's research measured the literacy, math and computer skills of 5,000 adults from 16 to 65 and compared those numbers with that of 21 other countries.

The good news is that we didn't finish last in anything.

The bad news is that Lake Wobegon ain't what it used to be.  "Well, that's the news from Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average." 
.
Above average?  Looks like you got some work to do, kids.
