Idiot Bloggers Fall For "Stupid American" Meme

The headline should read "Self Identified Government Officials on the Anonymous Internet Flunk Badly Worded 'Test' Created By Group With An Ax to Grind". I can't believe the number of people who fell for the test by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute. Go look at that Wikipedia page. They're a conservative pressure group that wants intelligent design taught in schools. And even if they were not they get money by proving that people are undereducated about their most important lessons. If they found that the majority of Americans actually knew about government it would be a surprise.

Yes, most people are woefully under educated, but so apparently are the bloggers who uncritically pass this on as "news". It's not news, it's fark.
