And any Tea Party rally is another Exhibit against your thesis.

This seems willfully ignorant to me. There is not an iota of evidence that
Teaparty people are "intellectually challenged." They are racists and, like
you, they ground their politics in a radical individualism, but it is wrong
to identify "being wrong" with being "stupid." I was irritated on lbo-talk
at threads in which the likes of Pegler and Buckley were admired for their
intelligence and prose style -- that reflected ignorance I thought or a sort
of left self-hatred, but they were correct that both thos pricks were highly
intelligent.
Perhaps you've never sat and listened to "stupid people" discuss baseball or
basketball: I couldn't care less about the substance, but they OBVIOUSLY
exhibit high intelligence in their discussion of those topics. They show
immense knowledge of the facts and that quality so mooned over on lbo and
pen-l, "critical thought."
