Ever wonder why the average American is so screwed up? Maybe it has something to do with how screwed up some of their "idols" and icons are.
For instance, consider this clip of co-hostess Sherri Shepherd, who must have slept through EVERY history class she ever had in school.
I was in one of these groups for smart kids when I was in high school, and I remember debating (informally) about nuclear weapons with one of girls in the group who was a year older than me. (This was in the early to mid 1980s, during Reagan's buildup against the Soviets). She was parroting the typical liberal drivel about guns and bombs and war and war never solving anything and giving peace a chance and all that rotgut.
Well, I finally said something about when we had dropped the two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and there was this huge blank look on her face. She'd been arguing about how evil nuclear weapons were, and had no idea they had ever been used. She had no grasp of war, or how force must be used to defeat evil. Most liberals aren't quite as ignorant as this girl was, but they're often missing several key ingredients to the recipe.
At least Shepherd's other 'heads straightened her out in this clip...for the moment. But who will straighten them out when they broadcast a different flavor of ignorance later (as most of the 'heads on this View show are wont to do)?
