Hawk is picking on the mental midgets at DU. I tried reading everything, but got to laughing so hard after the first part, I had to stop. Check out this amazing feat of intelligence and humility:
What we MUST realize in order to win - Americans are stupid and uninformedNow, normally I don't nitpick when people start using "fuzzy math" at the elementary level, but this guy claims to be in the top 1%-20% intelligence curve, and then follows it up by saying the majority is in the "lower 80% to 99% percent of the bell-curve."Janekat: "This is very important because in order to win we must understand the way the average American thinks. I'm afraid WE have nothing in common with them.
I came to the two following conclusions when I saw the large number of people who voted for Bush back in 2000.
#1 - I would dare to assume that most of us here are in the upper 1%-20% of the population intelligence-wise. We must come to the realization that the majority of the population is in the lower 80% to 99% percent of the bell-curve. WE are not the norm.
If you can figure out what's fundamentally wrong with that statement, as Walter Williams would say, go to the head of the class.
From what I can tell, the rest of it is a hoot as well, so go, read, and enjoy the stupidity of "upper 1%-20%" percent percent percent of the population.
By the way, for some reason I was reminded of this:
Entry doors don't open out because you could break in by removing the hinge pins. The kid knows this and didn't bother to read the instructions obviously posted by a school administrator to cover his ass.

Posted by: Ravenwood at October 10, 2003 11:11 AMThe degree of moral and intellectual self-elevation on the Left is simply appalling -- and I'm no lightweight of the ego. Thomas Sowell's diagnosis of the condition in The Vision Of The Anointed has yet to suffer even one counter-datum.
If anything is likely to put an end to leftism in the United States, it would be the popular irritation at being denigrated and condescended to as a matter of political posture.
