I'm fond of saying that open-minded people are the most close-minded people I know. I say this because every time I've been accused of being close-minded it has been because I didn't agree with the person accusing me of being close-minded (just for the record, I looked it up to make sure and close-minded is acceptable as well as closed-minded). In a similar vein, I've always believed that liberals tend to be more racists because they believe that there are groups of people incapable of getting by without them. Or at least as long as members of those groups don't disagree with them. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall (the first African-American justice and a noted civil rights attorney) once noted he would resign from the Court if a female Justice were ever appointed and was hesitant to hire females as law clerks. Noted liberal columnist Maureen O'Dowd of the New York Times has called every female Republican politician a bully and derided them as crazy. Chris Matthews of MSNBC and Mrs. Polly's class of the criminally stupid immediately resorted to deriding a Rich Lott, an Ohio Congressional candidate, as participating in something "homoerotic" for being a part of WWII reenactments.
These are the people of tolerance. They know what is best for you idiots. Why is it you don't listen? I guess you're close-minded, or closed-minded even.
