Most days approaching the info-overloaders of Facebook/Twitter/CNN/whatever promises a depressing encounter with the stupid things people — especially the corporate media types we call “Villagers” — obsess about.

But today may possibly be the absolutely stupidest. Yes, I know “stupidest” isn’t a real word, but that’s the best kind of word today’s events deserve. And I proclaim this nadir of stupidity within an historical context that has amassed a stupendous load of asinine things within its bowels. So I suspect I may have underestimated the capacity of our current political culture to debase itself.

After all, there’s an election coming.

UPDATE: Just read this tweet: “Taitz responds: Real Birth Cert. would say “Negro” not “African” http://tpm.ly/ecNEGZ #longformbirthers”

Nevermind.
