These are "letters to the editor" by san Diego County residents. This is a demonstration of what has infiltrated into San Diego, and why these people will not get another Liberal elected.

One of the biggest errors in conventional wisdom is to think academics are particularly intelligent.
Especially in liberal arts, where the most extremism is found.

Those that can - do
Those that cant - teach
and
those that can neither do nor teach become newspaper reporters.

They have become so dam* predictable now, you are probably right.
Cookie cutter thinking and reactionism are the rule of the day for these idiots.

"Those who can't, teach."Ah, ya beat me to it!

As a Mensan, I reiterate what better folk that me have previously observed: some extremely intelligent, highly accomplished people in this world are complete morons outside of their very specific fields of endeavor.
In fact, their pursuit of excellence in a limited field actually may contribute to a myopic view of the world. Liberal professors may be the best example of this phenomena.

The mistake these people make is to state that this professors are intelligent. They're not. If they were intelligent they would be out in the world applying they're knowledge and making a lot of money. The old saying holds true. Those that can... Do. Those that can't... Teach. So the whole idea that professors are intelligent is fiction.
To: Brad Cloven
Those in the teaching profession live off the lamb, spelled socialist government.
They need to be reminded constantly, "a socialist train cannot sustain itself without a capitalist engine".

They know something of labor and social history and realize that for most people a return to conditions of the early 20th century would not be in their interest. Hollyweirdos know nothing of labor and nothing of social history... and are just as, if not more, liberal that College professors.

These people are liberal because they are intelligent, thoughtful and well-educated."This woman is a runway fashion supermodel because she's a dwarf, morbidly obese, and born with only half a head." :)

Liberals are intelligent. You'd have to have a pretty agile mind to do all the mental gymnastics to keep together a belief system that is so obviously and deeply flawed. Breath taking machinations in logic aren't for the normal intellect.

Or maybe it's just because they don't have to work for a living.

If most professors' ideological rudders represented those of the current Republican Party I don't think anyone really wants "most professors" to be Republicans.
Why does this person think it's OK for "most professors" to be liberals.
What's wrong with a balance, for crying out loud?

I used to laugh regularly at the majority of the drivel my liberal arts professors were espousing as practically law.

Being learned equates to being clever.......not being wise.In my life I've met far more people who are not clever but are wise, than who are clever and wise.

Another is to think that education and intelligence are synonymous.
Thre really IS such a thing as an educated idiot.

Leftist Prof. are theorist and are devoid of any reality outside their campus, circle friends (Who think like them) etc...
Socialism is the ultimate theory to "play" with plus it feeds their ivory tower ego. Just get your grade and move on past those "open minded" (So open their brains fall out) and brainwashed fools.
