It seems the democrats are at the forefront of not holding anyone accountable for outcomes, especially intellectual outcomes. If someone is stupid then they surely were not offered a fair education, they were discrimminated against, or thier special needs simply were not fully understood or embraced by a selfish society. Of coarse all of the above can unfairly harm and should not be brushed off, but why must democrats place themselves on such a moral pedestal that they simply will not admit that some people are just plain dumb? The real hypocrisy is that while they won't admit to this aloud, they absolutely believe it and at a much deeper level than many republicans. Democrats are notorious for playing big brother. They believe that they know best and should altrusitically offer thier superior intelligence to dictating political policy. I by no means would ever elect a president that seemed stupid, but someone who you could have a beer with might just be a little more adept at cutting through some of the crap and leading based on logic not fake apprecitaion for the common plight. George Bush has made some stupid moves but he is not a stupid man. The average Bush basher, which is just about everyone these days, would not be a match for him on an IQ test or other standard measure of intelligence. Are standard IQ's even important? Democrats say no, but then basque in sychophantic circles that constantly affirm thier superior intellect. Maybe republicans appreciate a person with the ability to more authentically relate to others. They want a leader that has faith in the common intellect but isn't afraid to to acknowledge stupidity at the same time. I'll cheers to that.
