GETGOURD with Gus Gourdo is a WTF commentary on how the words that we as an American society have allowed to be used by our “leaders” and to define our issues have eroded both our capacity for reason and the fabric of our American democracy. The solution seems simple, but not easy: if we want a better nation, we must chose, use, demand and accept better words.

In today’s America, our crooked words have made us witless herds. Red. Blue. White. Black. Brown. Orange. Yellow. Olive. All of us. Explicitly. Implicitly. Complicitly. One way or another, you’re the problem…it’s YOU.

Really…we’re not this fucking dumb. We can’t be.
