You have got to wonder who the idiot was who decided “this year we’re going to call people who believe in God dumb” in a country where 83% of the population identify themselves as Christian and thinks that will work out for them.

You have to wonder at the term “anti-intellectual” as well.

The left wants it to mean “opposed to smart/thinking people”, carrying on the meme that liberals are just by definition smarter than anyone of conservative ideology.

Sowell’s definition of “intellectual” is a person whose only product of effort is in the realm of ideas and is someone who never has to face judgement based on the consequences of those ideas; an elitist.

Yes, in Sowell’s definition of “intellectual”, most of us ARE “anti-intellectual” because WE are the ones to bear the brunt of their bad ideas. Their ideas, for the most part, are self-stroking, so they get to feel good about them and we get to pay for them.

The Left is beside themselves -- going into overdrive because they just found out that over 60% of the GOP base agree with Rick Perry on social security.
