"Vanguard: Two Americas" is must see TV.

It's being re-run tomorrow morning on Current TV (at least in the Chicago market).
It provides a fascinating glimpse into the mind of Faux Newz viewers who vote for Republiclowns.

Among the stunningly stupid quotes is "If the government wasn't helping us with food stamps or unemployment, somebody out there would be. Government don't need to be helping, they don't need to be helping us."

and maybe then he'll see just how many folks are lining up to help him out.

Sadly, this jerk is going to lose everything and he'll still buy the stupid party line that government aid is bad, even if he knows if he'd had more of it and it had lasted a little longer, he'd have been able to start over.

Stupid bastards. We need to start tattooing "CHUMP" on their foreheads and passing legislation that makes it a felony to take advantage of their extreme gullibility.

They're impervious to facts and logic when they've drunk the kool aid long enough.

On the flipside of this documentary, the wealthy family they profile has more money than they know what to do with.
At one point they have mountain goat heads mounted above their mantle and rig them with plumbing so they can drip tears...very twisted!
