Dear Rep. Todd Akin:
For fuck's sake! Are you serious? Really? You're that goddamn stupid? AND you're popular enough among a sector of the populace to win elected office? You represent the majority of voters in your district?
Holy sheep shit, our national IQ just plunged past 'imbecile.' who the hell ARE you people?!
Okay, I get that many people are bad at history. My spouse is bad at history. The difference is, she knows she's bad at it. She doesn't pretend, or just make shit up. She admits she doesn't know something, and therefore doesn't formulate a strong opinion based on stuff she doesn't know. If she needs to know, she asks me, or she looks it up! For fuck's sake!
And I'm not even getting into the fact that the people refuting what you said are also wrong. But that's not their fault. At least they studied their history, and regurgitated what they were fed in school. They're more right than the people who just make it up as they go.
"You're entitled to your own opinion, but you're not entitled to your own facts."
For fuck's sake!
Cantankerous Coot.
