Is that the whole is greater than the sum of it’s parts. So it really shouldn’t come as a surprise to discover that when you put Michele Bachmann, she of One World Currency fame, together with Glenn Beck, it takes it to a whole new level of dumb:
BACHMANN: What that means is that all of the countries of the world would have a single currency. We would give up the dollar as our currency and we would just go with a One World currency. And now for the first time, we’re seeing major countires like China, India, Russia, countries like that, calling for a one world currency and they want this discussion to occur at the G20. So I asked both the Treasury Secretary and the Federal Reserve chair if they would categorically denounce this. The reason why is because if we give up the dollar as our standard, and co-mingle the value of the dollar with the value of coinage in Zimbabwe, that dilutes our money supply. We lose country over our economy. And economic liberty is inextricably entwined with political liberty. Once you lose your economic freedom, you lose your political freedom. And then we are no more, as an exceptional nation, as we always have been. So this is imperative.
Michele Bachmann – the gift that keeps on giving…

Wow.
Neither Beck nor Bachmann know what a reserve currency is.
Wow.

Frightening, isn’t it? You would think that much stupidity would exert a gravitional pull on those around them…
