Have you ever noticed how incompetent people are often incredibly confident? Meanwhile, highly-skilled folks underestimate their ability to perform. That's called the Dunning-Kruger Effect named for Justin Kruger and David Dunning of Cornell University who published their study of the cognitive bias in a 1999 scientific paper. ABC Radio National's The Science Show recently explored the Dunning-Kruger Effect. According to the scientists, "Overestimation occurs, in part, because people who are unskilled in these domains suffer a dual burden: Not only do these people reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices, but their incompetence robs them of the metacognitive ability to realize it."

You're trolling me so technically that makes you a troll.
FROM THE ARTICLE:
In the midst of the worst recession since the Great Depression, we have the GOP coming out against extending unemployment benefits. Before Christmas.
Members of the GOP proclaim that they'll vote against raising the debt ceiling, which would effectively bankrupt the United States of America.
New Speaker of the House John Boehner has moved to shut down the Congressional Ethics Office.
Grover Norquist, influential head of the conservative Americans for Tax Reform, has suggested that shutting down the government would be good for the GOP.
Republicans are holding off tax breaks for all Americans so that the wealthiest 2% of Americans can get their taxes lowered for income over $250,000. And add $700 billion to the budget deficit which Republicans say they want to eliminate.
Roger Ailes, head of the "fair and balanced" Fox News has called the President of the United States a far left "socialist," described NPR executives as "of course Nazis," and declared that Jon Stewart was "crazy."

The real problem here is the "liberal" news networks refuse to expose the Republicans on their positions. Listed above is a partial list of those positions. Not even right wingers on the USMB would dare to deny it. In fact, most are proud of those positions.
Network news has become a series of "fluff" feelgood stories, leaving networks such as "Fox" reporting that the president is spending 200 million dollars A DAY on a single trip. And the Fox base believes that nonsense. Why? Because they have been conditioned to believe honest reporting from days gone by.
Only a total moron could possibly believe the president could spend 200 million dollars a day on a "trip". Oh, sorry Republicans. I didn't mean to call you.....Well, if the shoe fits......
And there you go trolling again.

And she has the facking nerve to say I'm obsessed with here when all she does is troll me in every thread I make bitching about HP.
In the midst of the worst recession since the Great Depression, we have the GOP coming out against extending unemployment benefits. Before Christmas.
Interesting how the article does not explain why they are against extending the unemploymet benefits. Whether right or wrong, they have valid reasons why extending them are a mistake. Throwing in the "before Christmas" is manipulation of the truth for affect. They had said it months ago.
New Speaker of the House John Boehner has moved to shut down the Congressional Ethics Office.
Again, right or wrong, there are valid reasons why he believes they should be shut down. I find it interesting that the article did not mention them
Grover Norquist, influential head of the conservative Americans for Tax Reform, has suggested that shutting down the government would be good for the GOP.
And Harry Reid, who was an ELECTED official and majority leader announced to the world that the surge was a failure without any data to back it up. So? people tend to say stupid things.
Republicans are holding off tax breaks for all Americans so that the wealthiest 2% of Americans can get their taxes lowered for income over $250,000. And add $700 billion to the budget deficit which Republicans say they want to eliminate.
This statement is mis representation of the truth. It ca be presented in another way that is just as accurate...Democrats are holding back tax breaks becuase they refuse to let the wealthiest 2% who pay 90% of all taxes enjoy the breaks as well
Roger Ailes, head of the "fair and balanced" Fox News has called the President of the United States a far left "socialist," described NPR executives as "of course Nazis," and declared that Jon Stewart was "crazy."
And other media outlets have ignored the non partisan Pew Research Center data and continue to call Fox a biased right wing news agency.
So I do not see why you put such credence in this biased article.
