Big And Little Numbers


41…………….. The percentage of Americans who didn’t know the Supreme Court made a decision on the healthcare bill. Never underestimate the stupidity of the American people.

24th…………… U.S. ranking out of 34 countries in math scores

1st……………….U.S. ranking for number of persons incarcerated

82……………. How many electoral votes Wendell Wilkie won in the 1940 election against FDR with 14.7% unemployment. Heartening news for Obama.

325……………The number of islands that comprise Hong Kong… Better remember where you parked your boat.

22% …………..George W Bush’s approval rating when he left office…and they probably thought his father was still president.

13% ………… Dick Cheney’s approval rating…it doesn’t get any lower.

25% ………… The % of eligble Black voters in Pennsylvania without a voter I.D…..a form of creative racism.

8%......................The % of Whites without voter I.D.

3%..................... The % of foreign-born in Japan. Go find a Chinese restaurant.

30%.................. The % of foreign-born in Canada. Always a good Plan B for us.

158……………..The number of times electors in the Electoral college did not vote for the candidate they were pledged for. The last time was in 2000.

66%………… The chance Obama has of winning in November according to Nate Silver, our best predictor. He is running 7 points ahead of Romney in Wisconsin…. I’m just saying.

4………………. Number of countries where Mitt hides his money, Luxembourg, Bermuda, Switzerland, and Cayman Islands. I presume he must keep a few bucks here.

25%................... Percentage of American soldiers who fired their guns during combat in World WarII.
