Still Muttering.

Either there is a glitch in the comments or I’ve been banned from Still Muttering, I hope it’s the former. Kinda sad when that happens, I think you should be able to battle these things out or what’s the point in us having language? And just when I was being a bit conciliatory! Rather than waste my comment, I’ll post it here.

I think we all piled in on you a bit on this one so this is just to say sorry for taking you to task so much but also to point you to a post by the one and only Dr. Sanity who I respect immensely. A number of times over the last year I’ve been met with complete incredulity by lefty acquaintances when I’ve stated that Obama is not very smart. [Well I'd put it a little more strongly than that] They’d cite for instance his editorship of the Harvard Review while missing that there is nothing written by him contained therein. And so it is with everything in his life, from his birth certificate, his high school grades and university results to his voting record in the Senate. They might cite his two well received memoirs while missing what might prompt one so young to think he’s important enough to write them and of course not knowing that they were in fact ghost written by Bill Ayers the well known terrorist. So it’s good to see this from Dr. Sanity:

“Ledeen calls Obama’s foreign policy team “a bunch of elitist snobs.” I would refer to them as morally and intellectually bankrupt–because that is what the Democrats with their “progressive” leftist ideology have evolved into. The leftist ideologue now in the White House thinks of himself as a ‘pragmatist’, but frankly, for all his education and glibness, he’s an idiot;”

This is the man in the White House for the next four years [except for the times when he's 'tired of it' and escapes for a while] and that is why the likes of me and Zee and many others are freaking out a bit, not because we’re ordinarily excitable or raving right wing rednecks but because we truly think what is happening is frightening.
I hope you’ll read the Melanie Phillips article I linked to, she says it much better than I.

Update. Reality check.
