7. You know Paul Revere went around ringin' bells and shootin' guns and beheadin' redcoats . . .

Republican history . . . there's so much wrong with it, where do you start? First, let's forget about the French helping us, because, you know, "freedom fries." Also forget that most of our revolutionary military leaders were trained by the British, veterans of the French and Indian War. Forget that the British had an ocean to cross in order to fight in a huge wilderness. Forget that one of those core beliefs our founding fathers fought for was freedom of religion, not to create a Holy Christian Empire. Forget that in the ISIS analogy, WE would be the British.

Also saying, "Obamacare is worse than slavery" would earn 20 stupidity points, but saying, "Obamacare is the worst thing since slavery" still scores you 19 stupidity points. So, you're only 5% less stupid.
