The Intellectual Elite
Over at Dissecting Leftism John Ray makes the observation:
The Leftist idea of themselves as an elite can get pretty amusing. Take this sentence from the top Leftist blog:
"The conservative bigotted position is untennable. It has no basis in fact or reason. Arguments against gay marriage are predicated entirely, 100 percent, on emotion. And the vehicle for those emotional appeals are the word "marriage". A mere semantic."
If the writer of that is a truly elite person, how come he has the English language skills of a dribbling idiot? "Bigoted" has one t. "Untenable" has one n. And the singular subject "vehicle" should be followed by the singular verb "is". And what he means by calling marriage "A mere semantic". I have no idea at all. And Leftists lap up such illiteracy at the rate of hundreds of thousands of hits every day! His wisdom must be profound. Too profound for me, certainly. If I were as prone to spelling and grammar mistakes as Kos is, I would at least use a spellchecker and grammar checker. But to do that I guess you have to be humble enough to admit your limitations. And humble is just what Leftists are not.
Now now John Ray! Don't you realize that it's not his fault? Didn't you know that The Republican Right Wing Smear Machine zapped their spell checker? Of course we did! We can do that, you know!
Sigh. There is just nothing quite like a little wisdom from a mental midget to start the day. Thanks John Ray, you nailed that one!
