There is a full handful of righty posters in this newsgroup who cannot
drool unaided.

The liberal "Intellectuals" chime in and high five each other.

The ?Intellectuals?:


Oh, please. That "Liberal" piece was just a screed written by a
"Conservative" who fancies himself an "intellectual."
Do you seriously think the two sides don't use the same arguing tactics?
The big difference is that "liberals" will cite people like Voltaire,
Lincoln, and Dostoevsky to "prove" their intellectualism.
"Conservatives" will cite Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck.
Both think they are ****ing "intellectuals" and the others are stupid.
jps used a simple metaphor, but it didn't fit and it was a dodge too.
He could have just come out and said "A gun can be very useful."
Then argue the downsides.
But he tied it all up with hammers and nails.
Dishonest argument, IMO.
Best to be honest.
