   Must be a recent graduate. They seem to know a lot about nothing these days which begs the question: Just what did they learn in the school they attended or did they major in idiocy.

   Hmm. I would o’ thought ‘Angstrom’ was German for angry stream.

   Sonny1, you probably mean that it raises the question. To accuse a writer/speaker of begging the question is to say that he/she is using circular logic. You could look it up.

   Unfortunately, Ernie’s answers are on the level of most of the population.

   Isn’t a “low information voter” one that simply doesn’t agree with the main stream media??

   @rnmontgomery

   “Low information voter” is a term introduced by Herman Cain. The purpose was two-fold: it replaces “stupid” which is insulting and sometimes inaccurate, and “ignorant” which is insulting. Given Cain’s convictions, “low information voter” refers to people who ignorantly vote leftish, i.e. most Obama supporters. Consumers of “main stream media” are included in this group.

   Don’t kid yourself into thinking that low information voters only frequent one side of the political spectrum. They are everywhere.

   Herman Cain was the idiot candidate that bemoaned how no one read the constitution anymore, then quoted parts of it to prove its importance. Problem was, he was quoting the Declaration of Independence. Apparently he thought they were the same thing. I always thought THAT sounded low-information.

    Low-information voters are Obama’s meat.

    I enjoyed reading these comments. Civil, a bit biting, and informative.

    If anyone’s wondering, a foot-pound is a measure of force. One foot-pound is the force it takes to move one pound one foot.

    I don’t know about the recent part. I spent many hours as a technician teaching engineers how to do their job before I retired 23 years ago.
