    Moron, ” A person of mild mental retardation having a mental age of from 7 to 12 years and generally having communication and social skills enabling some degree of academic or vocational education. ”

    It pretty much sounds like anyone too stupid to be able to vote correctly in a Florida voting booth in 2000, or anyone receiving assistance from ACORN .

    🙂

  2. Ben, thanks for making me laugh!
    Alan, thanks for brining me back down to earth.

  3. the new sense,

    “Alan, thanks for brining me back down to earth.”

    I’m glad someone here gets something out of my words.
