The dumber they are...the dumber they are

THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD

(apologies to Keith Olbermann)

Rep. Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX)

In an interview on the Fox News Channel, Rep. Lamar Smith, R-San Antonio, said he didn't want to "be radical, but to me, the greatest threat to America is not necessarily a recession or even another terrorist attack.".... "The greatest threat to America is a liberal media bias, and I think that because if the American people don't know the facts, they can't make good decisions and if the American people can't make good decisions, then our democracy is threatened," Smith said.... Smith also thanked the Fox network for being "the only balanced coverage out there, and it's much appreciated by a lot of us."

Hi, my name is Jack...and I hate America. In fact, I'd like nothing more than to see this country conquered by my radical Islamofascist overlords. How could I NOT feel this way? I'm a Liberal...and all Liberals are America-hating, Commie-loving enemies of democracy and Christianity...not to mention everything that's good and holy about America.

OK, so now that I've owned up to the sad reality of my America-hating ways, I really have to wonder how an seemingly intelligent sort like Lamar Smith could be so (&^%$#@ blind? I have no problem with philosophical and/or ideological disagreement, but when you can in all seriousness see Americans who disagree with you as a clear and present danger to the security of this country? Well, you really ought to look into having your medication dialed back, knowhutimean?

Propaganda and talking points are not legitimate means of keeping this country safe. Seeing those who happen to think differently as security threats is as insulting and irresponsible as it is ignorant. Then again, Smith hails from Texas, where LIbruls share a link on the food chain with pond scum. What else could one reasonably expect?

When Fox News Channel comprises your sole information source AND defines how you view the world, odds are pretty good you're going to end up like Lamar Smith- ignorant, ill-informed, self-superior, and spectacularly ill-informed. I guess sometimes brain-dead zealotry can be it's own reward....

WE DESERVE BETTER.
