  1. What do you consider more nincompoopish: that he was wrong, or that he thought being right would be a good thing?

    • I think the biggest feat of nincompoopery evidenced here is Perry’s letting the cat out of the bag that what Texas is ostensibly doing (“students are directed to investigate and evaluate all theories”) is really code for “teaching creationism.”

  2. Nincompoops seem to be getting a lot of voter support lately (Bush, Perry, Palin, Bachmann, etc.). Does this mean that an increasing proportion of the electorate is composed of nincompoops? Or, does it mean that we always had lots of nincompoops among us, but the internet & YouTube just make it easier to see them?
