He is, indeed, an idiot. And for once, comments at the source are in line with that, with only a few dumbasses dragging up the President 'ignoring' DOMA and such like. (Oh, and a couple of 'The Democrats were against Civil Rights!!!' types.)

Well, it's the HuffPost. I would have been surprised if they hadn't.

Yeah, comments at Huffpost are usually pretty cool. If somebody says something really stupid, several other people will usually pop up to correct them pretty quick.

It's one of the few sites where I'm not usually afraid to read the comments.

He's an idiot. It's only a problem because it goes against what he believes.

I love (by which I mean hate) how self-congratulatingly cardboard martyr-y assholes like this get over treating people horribly.

I always love when people running for office (or saying they are) fundamentally don't understand the most basic points about government. Three branches? checks and balances? WHAT IS THIS?

[moonshaz]

I know, right?? And yet the same people are SO fond of claiming to know exactly what the founding fathers meant and didn't mean. Ironic.

Apparently Crash Course on YT is doing a new series on U.S. government and how it works. I believe it should be required viewing for any and all politicians, because obviously they are way too many idiots.
