60% of Americans are either idiots or lazy.

So there's that poll out there where 60% of Americans think all members of Congress should be fired.

So now we know, 60% of all Americans are either idiots or lazy: They've bought into the false equivalence of  equal blame for the government shutdown and debt ceiling fight and can't be bothered to understand what's going on.  Besides, if you fire all of Congress and hold new elections, you're just going to come up with more of the same, due to the gerrymandering of district lines to enshrine political power, rather than force elections to become competitive and balanced.

And if you think I'm wrong, then start paying attention to some real moderate conservatives, and not the fake ones that the media is presenting.

And I'm still perturbed by the media's conflation of information between the government shutdown and the debt ceiling, as well as their lack of reporting over the CBO's report on the cost to repeal the ACA.
