Great article. Here’s my definition of an intellectual:

If you can’t change your own tire, you might be an intellectual.

If you couldn’t kill and dress out a deer if your life depended on it, you might be an intellectual.

If you don’t know the difference between a box wrench and a crescent wrench, you might be an intellectual.

Can anyone imagine Obama changing a tire?

Feel free to add to the list.

if you can’t outrun an angry bear/lion/tiger/carnivore and you instead try and engage in peace negotiations then you are an intelectual....(for the 10 seconds of life you have trying)

the fact is that the left defines intelectual as NOT being able to do any real world practical task. IOW not being “handy” is intelectual. Being a male who is oprahfied to uselessness is intelectual.

for 1984 fans... weakness is strength. ignorance is intelect.
