Are You Kidding Me is a series of mistakes that are made that should not be overlooked.

Isn’t it amazing that we can have a survey or a study that can justify just about anything.
Ever thought about who responds to surveys. Let’s see. I have a job. I work. I hang up on people that call me and bother me at dinner time. Hmmmm. Not people like me. Now if I was on welfare, decided I didn’t want to work this month, and was laying on my fat end during the day when the pollsters call, I guess my opinion would count.
What about all those studys that support what ever? Most are from “a” college professor. Now can you think of any reason a college professor would want to prove something? A college is a business. Studies are sponsored with money, more studies and publications means more name recognition, more name recognition means more people support the college…oh yea, that was the business in the first place right?
Read any men’s magazine and see how many time they say “says, Blah Blahhh, Ph.D., a sometown clinical director”, or “according to a new study from the University of {some other country}”.
Moral of the story. All the studies and all the surveys mean so little, yet we put so much trust in those that publish them, and take action because of them.
Breaking News. According to Tom @ “Patriotism is never part time” Americans need to show their love of country by speaking English, not exporting information, and supporting our military service members.
Believe it.
