9. I , too, want someone smarter than me to be elected. |
|
I mean, I'm a pretty smart guy (and humble too :) ), but I want the SMARTEST guy to be in charge.
It's a sad day when intelligence is made out to be a negative trait.

7. I think he doesn't really know his audience there, I think even as comedy it's > |

a little counter productive calling everyone dumb. I think uninformed is more subtle. But when Mahar is on form he is a very funny guy all the same.

I think he was well aware of his audience and wanted to let them know the unvarnished truth.The only reason he even attempted to inject some humor into his invective was in deference to his host.
