The more he says, The stupider he sounds

Charles Krauthammer, who has to be one of the more moronic examples of raving wingnuttery:

A myth was born. Explained the USA Today headline: "ANGRY WHITE MEN: Their votes turn the tide for GOP."
...
I ... found not a scintilla of evidence to support the claim. Nonetheless, it was a necessary invention, a way for the liberal elite to delegitimize a conservative victory.
...
Plus ca change ... Ten years and another stunning Democratic defeat later, and liberals are at it again. The Angry White Male has been transmuted into the Bigoted Christian Redneck.
I'm just guessing here, but did it ever occur to the good Herr Doktor that the folks he said don't exist are actually one and the same? Angry White Bigoted Christian Rednecks?

Yeah, I thought that little leap of intuition might be beyond him...since it would involve looking in the mirror.

Comments:

Why are the "liberal elite" dubbed with this title anyway? Who are the liberal elite? If one is liberal is one ipso facto elite too? If one is elite then is one ipso facto liberal? If all repubs are liars are all liars ipso facto repubs? What a stupid sound bite, like there aren't elite reactionaries or like there are no liberals amongst the teeming masses. And to say that anyone who didn't vote 'W/C' is not a "real American", immoral, and upatriotic is hyper-elitist.

Krauthammer's a jew, not a Xian.

But you make a good point. Most normal Americans are Xian.

You know, if you'd titled this, "The Moore he says, the Stupider he sounds", it'd be more catchy.

Just a thought.

There's some sort of weird psychological mind-meld going on between the Jewish Right and the Xtian Right, anyway. It's like it doesn't matter to either anymore, we're all "Judeo-Christians" upholding Western Civilization™ so what edition of the Torah you use and which bits you read from it on what day of the week are just technicalities.

Lapin, the Podhoretzes, Medved, Dr. Laura - who just converted to Christianity, btw - are only Jews (to the Xtian Wrong) when it's necessary to defend their arguments against the likes of us. Because the only "defense" possible is to cry the wolf of "anti-Semitism" since there's no *there* there when it comes to the logic part.
