1. “Hey, maybe the Obama campaign can hire them.”

   Um, they DID hire them in 2008. And it worked….

2. I think Mccain hired them.

3. Well, some of the stupidest people I ever encountered were MENSA members. It’s from them I learned that there are some monumental stupidities of which only genius is capable.

4. No, Stupid’s questions come from the tiresome adolescent predicate that believes ignorance is necessary for innovation. If you don’t know anything, you’ll come up with something totally new!

   Heh. Sounds like it could be the corporate motto for SpaceX 😉 (How many times have advocates here argued that SpaceX’s liberation from NASA’s dusty old folklore and “cargo cult” superstitions will usher in a new era of innovation?)

   None, that I know of.
