Idiocracy is a cult movie by Writer/Director Mike Judge that described the future consequences of a society where natural selection is reversed and idiots out-breed the smart people.  The premise becomes unsettling as we learn the TV ratings of shows like Jersey Shore and Honey Boo Boo. However, we can easily dismiss entertainment as a cheap thrill that doesn’t necessarily indicate the IQ level of the viewer.  We’ve all been sucked into programming we are not proud of.  There is no reason to take it seriously…

So, how do we explain away MSNBC? I don’t believe that the network is billing itself as the sensationalist circus of morons that it is, so people may actually be taking them seriously.  Having watched a few episodes of Jersey Shore (truth comes out), I can’t say I’ve seen anything more pathetic or ignorant than the following video:

It almsot feels dirty debunking what is said on MSNBC, like Warren Sapp would feel playing in a pee-wee football game. Not only do Mormons serve in the military, the FBI and CIA are famously full of them… Just when you think the ignorant lowlife couldn’t get more pathetic, O’Donnell goes on to insult Tagg Romney’s name and challenge him to a fight. Let that one sink in: This is a 60 year old journalist who pulls 1.5 million viewers a night challenging someone to a fight and insulting his NAME!

O’Donnell isn’t an anomoly on the network. Here is one of his collegues on the network:

Chris Matthews either believes that he lives in a banana republic, or he thinks that his viewers are really dumb enough to buy that the constitution restricts the first amendment when addressing the president in a debate.

I could fill pages of this website with distortions and non-sequitors presented daily by O’Donnell, Matthews, Bashir, Sharpton, Hayes, and Shultz.  It really begs the question: Who is taking these idiots seriously?
