If you want a barometer on the idiocy of Americans…LOOK AT THIS!

Harris Interactive, a market research firm, conducted a study about what people thought about Pres. Obama. These are the results that come from the Harris Poll that involved 2,320 adults who were surveyed online between March 1 and March 8.

Here’s the percentage breakdown of respondents’ views of President Obama:

• 40 percent think he is a Socialist 
• 38 percent say he wants to take away Americans’ right to own guns.
• 32 percent say he is a Muslim.
• 29 percent think he wants to turn over the sovereignty of the United States to a one world government.
• 29 percent think he has done many things that are unconstitutional.
• 27 percent say he resents America’s heritage.
• 27 percent say he does what Wall Street and the bankers tell him to do.
• 25 percent say he was not born in the United States and so is not eligible to be president.
• 25 percent say he is a domestic enemy that the U.S. Constitutions speaks of.
• 23 percent say he is a racist.
• 23 percent say he is anti-American.
• 23 percent say he wants to use an economic collapse or terrorist attack as an excuse to take dictatorial powers.
• 20 percent say he is doing many of the things that Hitler did.
• 14 percent think Obama is the anti-Christ

The findings lend support to a theme touted in John Avlon’s new book “Wingnuts: How the Lunatic Fringe Is Hijacking America.”

“This poll should be a wake-up call to all Americans about the real costs of using fear and hate to pump up hyper-partisanship,” Avlon said after reviewing the findings. “We are playing with dynamite by demonizing our president and dividing our country in the process. Americans need to remember the perspective that Wingnuts always forget – patriotism is more important than partisanship.”

**Interesting side note: According to this poll 7 in 10 Americans in that study admitted they know very little about the Islamic religion.

This is another example that Americans have hard and fast beliefs about shit they know nothing about even when it undermines their own country.  Unreal, completely unreal.

Are you still proud, Mr. Greenwood?
