Massachusetts Still in Play to the Stupid Voters

Keep an eye or ear closely tuned to the news on Tuesday to see if the Republicans can take former Democratic Senator Teddy Kennedy's seat. It should be exciting and I tend to think that the election, win or lose, is a referendum against Obamacare. Of course, if liberals have their way, the actual vote count wouldn't matter nor would the election rules. MSNBC commentator and radio talk show host Ed Schultz has declared that he would try to vote 10 times to swing the election to Coakley. This is, again, proof that progressives believe you are too dumb to govern yourself and their ideas are more important than democracy. This is again reflected in the liberal media where in an article critical of Coakley's campaign mistakes, the writer still feels the need to bash Brown saying "let's be honest, his nights probably aren't tied up with Mensa meetings". Conservatives are dumb, liberals and progressives are smart. It's a mantra that has been repeated so often that I believe many people become liberals and progressives to avoid being called stupid, which is, of course, stupid. Don't believe me? Think how Reagan was a bumbling fool but Carter a luminary, Clinton brilliant and Bush an idiot, Obama an intellectual who can't give a speech without a teleprompter while the big, fat, idiot (per Senator Al Franken's (D. Minn.) book) Rush Limbaugh gives one and a half hour extemporaneous speeches at CPAC. In fact, a hoax regarding the IQ of presidents over the last 50 years was widely circulated and bought into (my "ethics" professor in my master's degree program distributed it to the class) which showed every Democratic President being smarter than every Republican President with the exception of Richard Nixon.

  1. IQ doesn't matter if the pres is at least smart enough to get good advisors around him.

  2. The point is more that the left often uses the argument, which is an ad hominem attack, of stupidity to characterize conservative leaders and the conservative public at large, i.e., using the teabagging label and calling them racist, saying they don't know what the original Boston Tea Party was about and never addressing the substance of the complaints and arguments.

  3. I only wonder why you put "ethics" in quotation marks. Is that a comment on your professor or the quality of the course?

  4. It's a comment on the professor, who I found to be very unethical.
