Never try to teach an edumacated Liberal Idiot how to think. It wastes your time and annoys the Liberal Idiot.

I love old cartoons, especially the ones from the 1930s and 40s.  I was looking at some old Popeye cartoons the other day and I recalled one of my alltime favorite Popeye lines, "I'm an edumacated (read educated) idiot."  I got to thinking about  how many people that I know might fit that description?

Surprisingly, I find that based upon my personal experience there are many people that do fit that description. Not surprisingly, most of them are of the Liberal political persuasion. Moreover, many of these college "edumacated idiots" cannot disagree without being disagreeable.  My Liberal acquaintances often bristle whenever I question the "factual basis" of their arguments.  First, I'll get the old "Well, studies show that... " argument.  Then when I ask them which studies show support for their position, I'll get the condescending "Well everybody knows that... " argument.  My point is that Liberals argue like ill-informed juveniles and often try to project their sophomoric weltanschauung on the rest of us.

The latest stupid argument put forth by Liberals is that the trial of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM) should be held in New York City to prove the superiority of our values to the world.  What a crock of crap!  One illiterate Liberal fool commenting on a story about New York Governor Patterson not wanting the trial of KSM in New York City because of safety concerns wrote the following:

If this case is lost, it will not be because it was held in NYC. It was be (sic) because of all the “extreme interogation” (sic) tactics the former admin had used, Which (sic) goes against international laws and treatment of foreign combatants.

Yeah, and terrorists are the humanitarians of the world worthy of Geneva Convention protection. Terrorists always treat their captives well--almost as well as they treated Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl.  Liberals also tend to forget the sins of the terrorists and concentrate on America's real or mostly imagined sins.

Liberals also sincerely believe that Bush is the personification of evil with no redeeming value whatsoever. To Libs, pornography has more redeeming moral and social value if only for the purpose of teaching one how to have sex with anything that moves, slinks, crawls, gallops, barks, oozes, or whatever.  Therefore, within the warped Liberal mind, not even a cowardly murdering terrorist is morally inferior to George W. Bush. And Liberals almost always invoke moral relativism in proportion to the the severity of the Liberal's Bush Derrangement Syndrome.  

Moral relativism is comparative guilt or--as I learned it in law school--is the Doctrine of Relative Filth.*  It is probably the most stupid argument that can be made when discussing issues of right and wrong.  Moral relativism arguments are generally made by people that are either morally inert or just plain stupid.  Wrong is wrong. The lesser of two evils is still evil.  But this doesn't matter to the "nuanced thinkers" of the Left.  Liberals strive to give moral passes to the truly worst of the worst because they hate America. And in their warped view, America IS evil.  As a result, terrorism is seldom cast by Liberals as an issue of right and wrong.  It always cast, as Obama's political Imam, Reverend Wright said, "America's chickens have come home to roost!"  or "G-dd***n America!" 

It's a pretty good guess that Obama and his Chicago political thugs are hoping that KSM will reveal how the evil Bush Adminstration chose to avoid the relatively mild Islamo-Fascist beheading or eye-gouging interrogation techniques in favor of the ever-so-cruel  waterboarding techniques. So finally!  "Evil" America will get its richly deserved comeuppance!  And as we all know that Islamo-Fascist terrorists are all honorable men and (in their own warped way) ardent Freedom Fighters.

But wait!  There's more to the mollycoddling of these terrorists by the Liberal "edumacated idiots"!  As described above, these terrorists are viewed by many Leftists as "Freedom Fighters" against American hegemony.  An "edumacated idiot" literature Professor  proclaimed as much at a "docufiction" reading that I attended a year ago at a local community college.  The Professor, who was at the time the head of a Graduate Program at the local State university argued in effect that the US is the cowardly evil force in the world because we bomb targets from high altitudes.  I pointed out to the good and learned Professor that a terrorist that could bomb innocent civilians after looking them in the eyes was a sadistic coward.  I further argued with the learned Professor that unlike terrorists, the US tried as best it could to avoid collateral damage by using so-called "smart bombs" (Precision Guided Munitions).  I told him that these "smart bombs" could be targeted to avoid civilian casualties. The Professor's "edumacted" response to me was to say that, "I don't believe you."  Bam!  I guess I was told off!  That'll teach me to disagree with a nuanced thinker of the Left.  I'd love to out this ignorant edumacated idiot Liberal bastard, but knowing the litigiousness of most Liberals I'd have to pay expensive legal fees to vindicate the truth that I'm writing about. Besides even if I won the countersuit and knowing what penurious bastards Liberals generally are, it would be hell to collect a judgment against any of them.

Not to digress but to amplify my point about Liberal "edumacated idiots," both Obama and his Attorney General Eric Holder are both "educated" lawyers.  They know very well that once KSM is in the Federal Court system, there is a good chance that much of the evidence gained during interrogation sessions might be suppressed and excluded from the trial under the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine.  The phrase "Fruit of the Poisonous Tree" is derived from the Gospel of Matthew.   Both of these guys are therefore, unqualified "edumacated idiots" because they are disregarding the safety of New Yorkers and Americans in general just to settle a grudge against a political enemy of their miniscule political base.  And as a Texas born and bred buddy of mine used to say, "That's dumber than owl s**t!"

* The Doctrine of Relative Filth is a variation of the Doctrine of Clean Hands.  Simply put, the clean hands doctrine is where a person that has acted wrongly, either morally or legally, i.e., that has "unclean hands," will not be helped by a court when complaining about the actions of someone else. Relative Filth means, "I’m not so bad as long as others are worse," which a variant of moral relativisim.
