And those are dentists! They went to college and everything. So really it's not surprising that you can get 20-25% of people to agree to any sort of ludicrous proposition. I figure if you ask most people, they'll have no problem stating that 1 in four people they know are, indeed, batshit insane.

I mean honestly, do 25% of the people you know in RI think bush is doing a good job? as I mentioned to em this weekend, being a republican myself, I can understand how RI got this “honor”, but what I don’t understand is how his approval rating could possibly be that HIGH in RI.

I made a snide remark about the vice president once when he had heart surgery in a New Hampshire pizza place, and Rob and I had to leave said Pizza place, due to the effect said comment had on the clerk. I mean, I'm not one to want to pull rank, but let's just say, on a scale of one to 10, making a snide remark about a man is one thing, shooting him in the face, all together another.
