They’ve been singing this lame song for the last thirty years. Democrats always talk about how they’re the intelligent party, and all the stupid people are Republican, but whenever the Democrat party needs votes, where do they look? The welfare office, the unemployment office, they try to register felons, or make voting easy enough for people too stupid to know how to get a photo ID or fill out a registration card. They scan the nation looking for morons and shuffle them into the voting booth, confident that the idiots will vote for the Democrats.

This doesn’t work on the internet, because they just google an answer, but in your real life, when some liberal starts talking about how dumb Republicans are, ask them some simple political, historical or current event questions. Ask them who the president of Mexico is, ask them to define quantitative easing, ask the to discuss the effects of the Kelo decision. Invariably, they will stand there with their mouths open but silent because they don’t know a damn thing about anything.

Instead of knowledge they fill their heads with snark and bluster.

IMHO “liberals” - and the transformation of the very word liberal in the 1920s - are best defined by the contrast between the 1910 liberalism
"It is not the critic who counts . . . the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena
of Theodore Roosevelt, and the post-1930 “liberalism” of Barak Obama:
”If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that”
The first is generous and encouraging, the last is not merely skepticism but outright cynicism. There is no trace of generosity of spirit in cynicism; leftists are greedy for credit and absolutely reject responsibility for themselves.

It is fundamental to competent management not to separate responsibility from authority. It is fundamental to leftism of all stripes, OTOH, to hog credit and evade all blame.
