Even though it's incredibly depressing to read it, it's also insightful, and good to know that SOMEBODY has noticed America is getting dumbed down. I also noticed the part about "Not being able to focus on something for more than a few minutes" or something like that. That struck a nerve in me, and I realized I'm a wee bit impatient myself as well, so I'm going to take the time these days to read books from time to time, so that I don't get more dumbed down than I already am (thank you, Tequila!).

| She's not the only one. There is a long video series by David Icke that I'd like to post. It's very long, but I agree with almost everything he says. A number of people are speaking out about how the public is being dumbed down. It's actually a process which has scoped hundreds if not thousands of years, and is maintained with a great deal of determination. The Human spirit -- the dove, in poetic terms -- always wants to break free.  | |
