Thinking IS obsolete, having been replaced by Political Correctness...which is:
“a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and promoted by mainstream media and the educational establishment, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of sh!t by the clean end.”

In the past I’ve mentioned here at FR the similarity in purpose of unfunded mandates on the States usually legislated by democrats, and congressionally mandated minimum wage laws, always Democrats again.
I see them as tools of the Left to keep the States under the thumb of centralized Federal Government.

I label the era I've watched emerge as the "Dim-Bulb" era.
We're in the early stages of what will eventually lead to what we laughed at in Mike Judge's great movie comedy "Idiocracy"
To: jazusamo
Thinking (except that done by the anointed elite) is hateful, hurtful, narrow minded, mean spirited, and judgement, not to mention racist, sexist, and homophobic as well. Now go watch Ed Schultz and the rest on MSNBC for the approved truth, you bigot! You must stop criticizing Party Secretary, the greatest since Josef Stalin, Erich Honnecker, and the Kim’s.

Watch Ed Schultz???
Cripes, just turn on the TV and watch him with the MUTE locked down and safety wired and the IQ level of everything in the room drops by ten points a minute.
Poor old house plants practically shrivel down into the pot with all that dumb flying by....

Has any other country, in any other war, been expected to keep the enemy's civilian casualties no higher than its own civilian casualties? The idea that Israel should do so did not originate among the masses but among the educated intelligentsia. In an age when scientists are creating artificial intelligence, too many of our educational institutions seem to be creating artificial stupidity. LOL - Sowell's great!

I will keep posting this. It explains it in a nutshell:
From the Freeper addendum to the ICD-10:
321.0 SPLAT Liberal Cerebral Defenestration (LCD) or Liberal Acquired Brain Absence (LABA), Complete loss of rationality, cognition, and cerebration due to indiscriminately keeping one's mind so far open that the brain falls out. First and subsequent encounters.

LOL! Thanks, kanawa.
It seems Sweeney had better start limiting his use of the bong though it may already be too late for him.
