I guess I didn't attach the meaning to the word that you intended.

Nearly two-thirds of Americans can’t name a single member of the United States Supreme Court, according to a new national survey by FindLaw.com.

I think you're right about the "average American." OTOH, the GOP base has been whipped into such a frenzy for the last 7 years by Fox and talk radio over how Obama is actively trying to destroy America. Now these same propagandists are telling them that the next SCOTUS appointment is the last straw on the march to Armageddon.

Of course. Nothing's too low for that deceitful prick.

The left doesn't listen to Fox or talk radio. Morever, Dubya took us into an unneeded war and crashed the economy, both things worthy of being upset about. What has Obama done to get the Right so pissed? Expanded health coverage?
