I am highly suspecious of anyone, D or R (or even FR) who thinks they are smarter than anyone else.

Like it or not, he speaks much truth. If only the bastards he was speaking about were listening. and mind you, he was NOT speaking about judges.

My words from an earlier post: He’s very smart. Just ask him and he will tell you. Or he will tell you without being asked. He only wants to make sure that you know he’s very smart. I called his office after I heard him going on about how bad Presided Trump’s tariff strategy is. I reminded the staffer that Ben Sasse didn’t make billions of dollars in the shark-infested waters of NYC. I also told her that while I was sure that Ben Sasse was very smart (see above) he wasn’t as smart as he thought he was and that President Trump certainly wasn’t as dumb as the Senator thought he was. I also told her that compared to the President Ben Sasse is a pup.

In a sense you are of course right. I’ll go you one better and say that it is probably not atypical of FReepers to have been exposed to a lot of people who, as fellow children, seemed to be not especially smart. But that is an artifact, primarily, of the fact that the school system shows some children at a artificial disadvantage which is not entirely representative of how they will function in a real society.

But you show me someone who disagrees with me, and I’ll show you someone who seems to me to be manifesting less intelligence than, at that moment at least, I think I have.

And I think that’s just human nature. But it oozes from every pore of Obama or Gore when they undertake to explain something which they just found out yesterday, but which should have been obvious to them and everyone else from their youth up.
