Thanks for the word. Not for the first time has there been a need to expand our vocabulary to explain our societal perplexities.

Here is such a word for today. A favorite of KSFO's Lee Rodgers, kakistocracy.

It definitely is right for today. It means "Government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens."

Now if there is a word that means the act of "projecting" your own faults onto others and heaping contempt and contumely upon them for their imagined faults -- then we'd have a neat word to describe liberals. Not ideological leftists, liberals. The leftists know what they are doing.

So, let me get this straight.

No matter who wins the election, the good old US of A is going to become a “kakistocracy”. You notice that I didn't ask a question.

Nice to have a word for it, though. Thanks.
