[Peace-discuss] Corn Festival -- RE: Sweet Corn Fest Fri & Sat!

[Laurie Solomon]

And, in part Carl, that is what makes them mental midgets and often moral idiots as well.  In my limited experiences of 68 years, I have rarely or ever heard anyone exclaim, "Thank god I'm not like those lesser folk!"  They typically presume that they are superior and deserving of what they have and get as a god given entitlement and right whereas those lesser folks are not so entitled to or deserve anything except by virtue of  the charity of their superiors.  After all, those who conceive of themselves as superiors resume to have god on their side so they can do no wrong; whereas the lesser wretches are godless undeserving creatures who have been placed on the earth to make the lives of their superiors more comfortable and easier at whatever cost to the lessers.

By far the hardest people to argue with are those who are quite sure of their own impressive mental stature.

You can't get them to stop exclaiming, "Thank god I'm not like those lesser folk!"

    Why do people feel that they can successfully argue with mental midgets?


  Primarily because Carl has apparently experienced resounding success in that endeavor.  ;-)  

  These folks are not really mental midgets, though, Laurie.  They're actually quite enlightened.  They're just brainwashed by the corporate media.  They'd see right through the spin if only they were properly instructed.  ;-)
