"They are not only ignorant. They are proud of it" |

I think that quote from Barack Obama in 2008 more than anything sums up the opposition.

3. My brother used to be a dittohead. |
|
He once proudly exclaimed at a family gathering, "I haven't read a book in 20 years," which broke my liberal schoolteacher mother's heart.

10. He was too smart to be a dittohead for life. |
|
After awhile he realized he was being lied to.
I like to think I had an influence.

9. Exactly. That's why they can toss Pell grants from the bill. It doesn't affect them. |

12. They figure they can argue, and that's what they see as "intelligence". |
|
They don't quite get that idiotic arguments aren't very good ones, because their role models see no shame in offering such arguments.
