Why We Need To Start Slapping People Again

2009 will probably go down as the Year of Stupid. Everywhere you look you see birthers, deathers, deniers, tea fetishists, and semi-literate amateur pundits screaming and frothing over their unsupported, repeatedly debunked line of argument. They are wrong. Dead wrong. Distractingly, even dangerously wrong. And since they will not, or more likely cannot, understand this fact they go on screaming and frothing in a fruitless quest for validation. They'll disrupt town hall meetings, Congressional addresses, and children's birthday parties to remind you, just in case you allowed yourself to forget for even a moment, of just how painfully stupid they really are.

Clearly, stupidity has always been with us. It would probably be accurate to say that stupidity is our natural state as human animals and that we separate ourselves from less capable species only through our ability to move past it. But in this age of cable news and Internet anonymity we have lost that tenuous connection between ignorance and shame....

The problem, it seems, is that we have indulged our stupidest citizens either because we wish to avoid the hassle and conflict or for pure entertainment value. We have treated them like indulged children, so it should not surprise us when they eventually behave like them....

We're going to have to start slapping people again....

Example 1: "Captain! Captain, we're all going to die!" *slap* "OK. I'll get the fire extinguisher."

Example 2: "Why won't the President show us his real birth certificate?" *slap* "OK."

Example 3: "So, that email thing says that global warming is officially a hoax-" *slap*

Example 2: “Why won’t the President show us his real birth certificate?” *slap* “OK.”

Example 3: “So, that email thing says that global warming is officially a hoax-” *slap*

So the asshat writing this lumps in those of us that know that AGW is a hoax with “birfers?” Well ain’t that just f*cking outstanding.

Interesting that he sees no need to explain why the positions he derides are stupid. We’re supposed to just take his word for it.

I believe this POV is commonly known as “stupid.”

Put simply, Sarah Palin needs to be slapped. Vigorously. Slap that greasy, clueless smirk off her stupid camera-ready face. Then move right on to slapping the chalk-white crap out of former VP Dick Cheney. And keep on slapping until he stops mumbling about nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. If there is any hope for them or their kind, she will thank you eventually.

Might want to alert the Secret Service about this guy.

[willgolfforfood]

Yeah, but technically you'd have to slap his parents for that one. But I get your point.

Boisenbottom............ I bet Bart Simpson could make a whole episode out of that one!

The author is due for a dose of his own medicine.

[WVPatriot]

You are the one asking for a slapping.

You know, the only FReeper who makes Barbara Boxer look intelligent.

[Hacklehead]

I would love to have some pencil necked hippie slap me so I could have him arrested for assault, after I mop the floor with him.

“Mo’s Tavern.”

“Hi, I’m looking for Mr. Boisenbottom, first name Lovesalotta.”

[IYAS9YAS]

Slap me, you silly little metro, and you will wind up on a milk carton.

[Bob J]

Phil Boisenbottom - slap

[spookie]

Maybe you should be the first

‘Boisenbottom’????

I think it's French for Tree Butt.

There is no way to reason with creatures as arrogant and dishonest as this author. Like any other pest, either they get exterminated, or they eventually make life impossible or unbearable for humans.

2009 will probably go down as the Year of Stupid. Everywhere you look you see [PC Nazis, warmists, socialists, GLBT fetishists, and semi-literate amateur pundits such as David Brooks and Kathleen Parker] screaming and frothing over their unsupported, repeatedly debunked line of argument. They are wrong. Dead wrong. Distractingly, even dangerously wrong. And since they will not, or more likely cannot, understand this fact they go on screaming and frothing in a fruitless quest for validation. They'll disrupt town hall meetings, Congressional addresses, and children's birthday parties to remind you, just in case you allowed yourself to forget for even a moment, of just how painfully stupid they really are.

There you go I fixed it for you.
