Jagged Little Pill

"Anti-stupid" pill tested on mice:
BERLIN (Reuters) - A German scientist has been testing an 'anti-stupidity' pill with encouraging results on mice and fruit flies, Bild newspaper reported on Saturday.

It said Hans-Hilger Ropers, director at Max-Planck-Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin, has tested a pill thwarting hyperactivity in certain brain nerve cells, helping stabilise short-term memory and improve attentiveness.

'With mice and fruit flies we were able to eliminate the loss of short-term memory,' Ropers, 62, is quoted saying in the German newspaper, which has dubbed it the 'world's first anti-stupidity pill.'

Might I suggest someone who could use a prescription:

Of course, the mice actually have brains for the pill to work on. Bush on the other hand, destroyed his brain as a result of years of drug and alcohol abuse.

Split his skull open and it's just clear jello sloshing around in there.
