I am just SICK and TIRED of Small-Town America.
Or is it Ignoramus America? Why are "small town" and "ignorant" often used (or implied) together? There are just as many dunces in cities. Watch Jay Leno ask someone on the street where the Pacific Ocean is (in LA), and you're likely to get a great big DUUUUUHHHH...
That said, I am TIRED of worrying about the bigot-ridden parts of our country. I am SICK of reading about the opinions of people who only read one newspaper (the one with the aliens on the cover), who don't know anything that is said outside their clique of KKK sons and daughters (and maybe Rush Limbaugh). If this country is going to let itself be dragged around by these anti-thinkers, we deserve to have our asses handed to us by the Chinese.
