You know, I was thinking the other day that we never hear the phrase "the dumbing down of America" anymore. Have we gotten smarter? I don't think so. In fact, if this article is accurate, the dumbness has spread internationally.

LONDON (Reuters) - Question: What was Gandhi's first name? Contestant's answer: Goosey Goosey.

Warning to all those know-alls who shout at the television screen when contestants offer dumb answers to blindingly obvious questions -- one day that could be you.

From regional radio shows to "Who Wants To be a Millionaire?" and "University Challenge," people make fools of themselves -- as internet site www.jumpingjacksbar.com found in collating some of the worst howlers.

Here are leading contenders for the "Dumb Down" gold medal:

Presenter: What happened in Dallas on November 22,1963?

Contestant: I don't know, I wasn't watching it then

My friend's ex-husband had to go to traffic court one time for a ticket and there was a girl there who'd been issued a citation for rear-ending the car in front of her. When the judge asked her why, when she was fourth in line in the lane, did she accelerate and run into the car in front of her?

"Well, sir, the light turned green and I go on green!"

Apparently when the light turned green, that we her cue to crawl up the other driver's tail pipes.

There will never be a shortage or stupid people in this world.
