"I personally believe that US American Herman Cain is unable to speak intelligently about the Libya and such as because like many people in our nation, he doesn't have a map... and such as.
And I believe that our education such as the South Africa and the Iraq and such as are confusing, just like Libya is to the Herman Cain and the such as.
So we can build up our future in Asia, and... such as." - Miss Teen South Carolina 2007
It amazes me how many people basque in the blatant stupidity of this person. She is a glorious reality tv character / living breathing cartoon, but it baffles me that anyone thinks she has a place in politics.
The first time I saw one of these I was shocked. I couldn't believe what I just saw. It was disturbing. It instantly burned and image in my mind that won't likely go away, and... I think that's a good thing.
That's what these commercials should do.
The "Just Say No" ads or the "This is Your Brain on Drugs" ads of the past were clearly not effective, and even laughable. Used in comedy bits, tshirts, tv shows and movies all laughing at them.
I don't think anyone will be laughing at these new ads.
The biggest drug problem in our country isn't drug dealers... It's drug users.
It's simple supply and demand. Drug dealers go where there are drug users. It's our responsibility as a nation not just to fight the supply, but maybe even more importantly to fight the demand. We must be able to better influence children than a drug dealer can. It is all about education and influence.
Where there is a demand, a supply will always find it's way... always. History can show us that with example after example.
Hopefully with better education we can start to lower the demand.
"I like talking about people who don't have any power.
It seems like this is one of the least powerful people in the United States are migrant workers who come here to do our work, but don't have any rights as a result. Yet we still invite them to come here, and then tell them to leave.
That is an interesting contradiction to me.
What so ever you do for the least of my brothers... These seem like the least of our brothers, right now.
Migrant workers suffer... and have no rights." -Stephen Colbert
Mr. Colbert, the satire was hilarious... and the seriousness strikes a cord.
