Only 23% ?????????? I would say alot more, plus the so-called educated functioning illiterate.

Thats was two complicatd four me.

Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas are 23%, huh? Wow.

Once you add Louisiana and Mississippi you're getting pretty close

How could I forget the "Wait... What? State" and the "At Least We're Not Mississippi State"?

I was in Mississippi last year. You couldn't pay me to go back. The dumbest group of people I've ever encountered. Even dumber than Manhattan liberals.

How long were you waiting for THAT set up? I could hear the rim shot all the way over here.

Are you in Manhattan or Missisippi?

Neither. I'm in the metaphorical "over here".

I heard it's nice over there this time of year.

Yes and by judging from many of the posts on this board.

Illiterate in English or Spanish?

I've been there ...nice place.

Hold on there 'Dum Dum'. I KNOW you've spent time in the Yankees 'cellar' so I KNOW you know better !! .......................... :-)

You are right . That article may say 23% . It is more then that.

Contrary to popular belief posted in this thread, they do not all reside in the South.

Illiterate in English or Spanish?

Chinese.

Then the illiteracy rate must be much higher.
