You're wrong. Very wrong.
For some reason this article caused me to flip into super-sarcastic mode. I'm just amazed that people can be so very wrong over and over again in the face of staggering evidence to the contrary. I can't even imagine how their brain cells must be wired together.
H.L. Mencken said that no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people. People who still believe in North Korea (Democrats, South Koreans, etc) have my grudging respect in that they have dodged the bullet of natural selection this long.
That pretty much describes 98% of the people who post on DU. I'm glad you have clarified the nature of your posts because I was going to suggest that go back over to DU.:-D
Phew!
Since reading this thread, actually, I've bumped into a couple of your other (non-sarcastic) posts on other threads, and I quickly realized that the threads on this post were in heavy sarcasm mode. But that article was a serious provocation, I agree!
