Bill Maher did a bit on this on his most recent HBO program. There are a surprisingly large percentages of people who don't know that each State has two senators, who still believe that Saddam Hussein was personally responsible for the 9/11 attacks, that Bush had advanced knowledge of 9/11, or that the twin towers fell for reasons not related to them getting hit by airplanes, etc
Art Bell retired too early!! He missed out on all the fun!! I also never realized the "Tinfoil Hat" Brigade was so large!! At least the Roman Empire had Lead in the water and food to blame for stupid people!! What's our excuse??
