The Cornerstone Of American Idiocracy

An advertisement featured on CNN's website:

The brain dead leading the brain dead?

Alan: "Brain-Dead Simple" is reprised in the dunderheaded history of "Airborne," "drug of choice" for Amurricans wishing to avoid communicable disease while flying on commercial airlines. As touted (before a court order blocked the advertisement) "Airborne Is The Only Medicine Created By A School Teacher." Learn more about Airborne's freak show at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airborne_%28dietary_supplement%29 

Consider... 

... and wince.

Americans who deny global warming, evolution and the need for government coordination of universal healthcare want their medicines designed by school teachers and farmers.
