    As a general rule their intellectual development will freeze at around the level of a 4th or 5th grader, but they are capable of the emotional maturity and ability to complete of domestic tasks to keep themselves alive. They can often do quite well in a sharehouse/hostel kind of environment with a part-time carer or health professional available to help them with complex tasks or issues. Complete independence is unlikely (although possible in some cases) but they're not helpless.

    Similar deal here, around 7th to 10th grade I had the walls of my room covered with magazine clippings and posters of just about anything that grabbed my interest, mostly culled from about a decade of Omni magazines and arranged to some obscure scheme that made sense at the time. There was one chunk of wall devoted to portraits which included a black and white shot of Hitler, until I got a good long lecture and takedown demand from my mother, whose side of the family is Jewish. I just thought it was a nice photo.

    I wonder how many of the McCain|MILF 2008 shirts have been turning up at rallies...

    It's not even Palin's BS count that bugs me, it's how utterly moronic I find her stated views regardless of their honesty. I wouldn't trust her to run a bakesale. She hasn't been getting all that much face time on Australian TV, but there's been enough to make me shudder. http://www.palinaspresident.com/ might be a bit tongue in cheek, but not nearly enough for my comfort.

    I'm not necessarily much of a Biden fan either, but he does get experience points and I like that he's one of the least wealthy senators in the country on top of that. My (admittedly underinformed but who cares, I'm foreign) opinion is that he looks like he'd be a solid administrator, as opposed to Cheney's role as shadowy puppetmaster.
