Your IQ does not show your intelligence but your ability to learn and solve puzzles. People with low IQ's can still learn the same stuff you and I do but it might take them long. Just because you have a low IQ does not make you ignorant or stupid, no more than having Asperger syndrome makes you stupid or ignorant. There are some Republican's who are very smart, but they are ignorant by choice. They are afraid of any kind of change and the unknown and shut themselves off to it. Those Republicans do come up with some truly asinine ideas, such as this bill to tie poor families welfare to their kids test scores and we need to stop this stuff. My suggestion was to force the Republicans to take the same tests as the kids have to and if they fail or don't show improvement over the year they lose their salary, have to pay back salary they already received and they lose their jobs instantly. If lawmakers were subject to the same rules as the rest of us, things would change instantly.
