i know there are lots and lots folks at du who are what the pinheads call gifted and talented. at the risk of sounding like a braggart, i am, at the age of 51, finally realizing that my membership in this group has kinda screwed up my life. living among "normal" people (no offense intended) can be extremely difficult. most of us wish we were just normal folks. most of us deny our gifts, and consequently make a lot of bad decisions in life. gifted and successful go together a lot less frequently than most folks would think. gifted and miserable, or troubled, probably outweighs that by a lot. i think it would be great if there was a du group where we could hang out with our peers. anybody?

So how does it feel to be a tool?

It's nothing but a god complex.

They believe the rest of the country is dumb (sometimes to the point that "they" shouldn't have the right to exist).

Too dumb to vote ("they're just gonna vote the wrong way because the Bible makes them bigoted against homosexuals").

Too dumb to keep their paycheck ("they're just gonna waste it").

Too dumb to use birth control ("abortion on demand, now more than ever... wouldn't want MORE dumb people").

Somehow the secular socialist left thinks they are wiser than the founding fathers of this country. Fat chance.
