Recently I wrote an article on why Conservatives are better debaters.  http://drguy.joeuser.com/index.asp?aid=94595  And as if to punctuate my points, and the points of the author of the original article, democraticunderground.com have decided they are the superiors in intellect!

It seems now they are the Wile E. Coyotes.  If you remember, old Wile E. use to call himself a super genius, even tho he never could capture the road runner.  And like the loser Wile E. is, DU has decided that they are smarter than the rest of the unwashed masses of the country:

#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. The Republicans understand that the average American is not very bright. They cater and pander to the masses. The Democratic Party tries to appeal to the population about "issues" that these people just don't understand.

In addition, people of average or lower intelligence tend to not be as logical or reasoned as those of higher intelligence - they deal with emotion. Therefore they are more likely to get riled up about someone burning a flag rather than a illogical tax cut.

That is why they are losers.  For they feel (there is no knowledge here) they are our intellectual superiors, even tho they cannot have a reasoned discourse or win a debate.  And they Feel that since they are so intellectually superior, that the unwashed masses must therefore be a bunch of idiots, and cant think for ourselves.  Where we have to get our news spoon fed to us by the intellectual elites.

And so their attitudes reflect their contempt of their intellectual inferiors.

Now I will grant you that most people who blog are probably smarter than the average Joe. Both conservative and liberal - with notable exceptions.  And I will grant that most of the country is not in the upper 1-20% on the intelligent scale, altho I would not agree that only bloggers occupy that niche.

But one thing I do know.  If you treat a dog with contempt, he is more likely to bite you than to wag his tail.  And so the effete snobs on the left at this clown palace, as well as their idols in the left leadership, treat the rest of society with contempt, and then expect them to come to the table wagging their tails, and begging for more.

My Mailman may not be as smart as I.  But you know what I have learned?  If I treat him with respect (it is actually a her), then he goes the extra mile when there is a problem with my mail, or when I get something important.  I dont have to discuss Descartes with him, nor talk about the theory of Quantum Physics.  I just treat him with respect, and in turn, he treats me kindly as well.

That is one of the biggest reasons the left loses so often, and their last bastions of strength are in the north east, where people expect to get screwed and stomped on, and the left coast, where people just dont care.  But in the fly over country, and the highways and byways of the rest of the country, were, for the most part, people are treated with respect and return that respect, they have no chance.  People dont want a god to represent them, they want their neighbor.  And as long as the left treats the citizens of this country with contempt and scorn, they will forever remain a minority, and apparently stupid, party.  Even the unwashed masses learn from their mistakes.  The elite liberals never do.
