Idiotocracy: IS IT COMEING TRUE?

That is a very depressing piece of opinion journalism and I have to say that I agree with his views. There is an outside chance that we are awakening to our slavery and oppression but I think the majority of our nation is described there.

Ten years from now, people will be complaining and crying about our oppression and poverty but will not realize how they enabled it. They will still not read. Our government has been allowed to "take care" of us from cradle to grave and that's too comfortable for the majority, which leaves the rest of us thinking individuals at the mercy of it. We are too few, unless we stand up and make a LOT of noise. The Tea Party demonstrations are a good start but unless we gain some momentum, all is lost to the idiots who will trade their freedom for comfort.

Art does have a tendency to mimic life.

I agree that 2010 will signal which way this country is going to go.

I think that the makeup of Congress is going to change dramatically.

I also think we have a one-hit wonder in the WH.

First of all, I loved that movie! It was very stupid but I could see the truth in it. Watching it now, I think it would fit even better. Regarding the article, while cynical, was pretty spot on. I figure you have the right to be ignorant, ill-informed, etc but you also should not vote. Voting is a very important duty and we should do our due diligence.

So how far into the future were they sent ( I missed that part ), a month?

This is a scary but sadly a rather true article. These same idiot that are being referred to only have one word that they use over and over again because they do not have the intelligence to debate or give any facts when it some to rebutting any even slightly less than adoring remarks about Obama and that is to scream "racist".
I am one of the obviously few people who have read both of Obama's books and am fearfully aware of where he plans to take our country. Another obvious thing is that the Obamaloonies will be in exactly the same boat as the rest of us when our country hits rock bottom...they will not get a free pass!

I saw that movie too. It was hilarious, if not a trifle scary I loved the scene of the city outside the window, that was a crack up.
Maybe you are being a bit facetious, but the movie is called "Idiocracy", and comeing is spelt "coming". If so, then it's funny, if not, then it's not I can't really see a time where the future will be anything like in the movie, but I do think that people should be more aware of their rights and not let go of them so easily. Personally, I think that human rights and national rights should be a subject taught in schools. But there's fat chance that any government would want us to stand up for our rights.

I'm afraid it's going to be idiotocracy if this usurper is not removed. 1. because there will never be another free election (2008 wasn't free and fraught with violations and crime). and 2. the republicans seem to want to emulate the depraved democrats in order to get votes, as in the Scozzafava fiasco in New York.

In 2008, bunch of idiots listened to Oprah Winfrey and followed her off a cliff like lemmings. She is very full of herself and deserves to be tried for treason for her part in swaying an election. I believe she also used to go to Rev. Wright's church with her friends the O's.
It's a sad commentary on our country that so many non-thinkers would listen to an ungrateful woman who was given such opportunity by this country, but, at best has used it for conspicuous consumption (to buy people's viewership) and, at worst, to influence the election of a usurper and sell-out our a free country to the dictatorship of gangsters of the worst kind.

I personally feel, regardless of how the election goes, we will continue the downward spiral towards 'idiocracy'. A whole new crop of voters are becoming voting age and they desperately want to 'rock the vote'. And, they will vote for whomever MTV and Hollywood tell them to. True change will have to come from outside Washington DC and the two political parties. But I think most 'idiots' would be surprised to know they have more than two choices.
