Intelligent debate

This is about as "intelligent" as it gets at the Facebook group Intelligent Women and Men Against Sarah Palin. I'll never forget the most important lesson I learned about intelligent debate: If you disagree with someone, just tell them to shut up, or call them names. Works every time!

They say ignorance is bliss, but apparently it becomes more “blissful” the more “intelligent” you are, or say you are. The ever-tolerant left wing is alive and well in its efforts to destroy one human being, in this case Sarah Palin, simply because that person doesn’t buy into their Utopian objectives.

For whatever reason, Sarah Palin is a lightning rod for the self-proclaimed “intelligent” among us, consisting primarily of the hipster dufus crowd that sees every political issue through the prism of the propaganda they were taught in college.

A typical post on the Sarah Palin-hating Facebook group, Intelligent Women and Men Against Sarah Palin, says, “Someone should overturn a rig on her and her damn family and let them see how ‘easy’ it is to ‘recover’ and ‘go on’…….F’ING IDIOT!….get OFF THE STAGE…..YOUR SCENE IS OVER!!!!!!!”

I guess this is what passes for “intelligent” commentary at Intelligent Women and Men Against Sarah Palin. The rest of the writings and rantings are no more illuminating than that one. In fact, that’s about as “intelligent” as it gets.

These are people who never see the other side of an issue and simply spout hateful missives about people and policies they care not to delve into themselves. I believe “shallow” would be the more pertinent word, as in Shallow Women and Men Against Sarah Palin.

Me? I’m neutral about Sarah Palin. I agree with her on most issues, but she hasn’t shown much depth in her ideological reasoning. Ironically, just like the groups aligned against her, her positions don’t appear to be very well thought out, other than “it sounds right.”

Like me, she has taken a stand against increasing government growth and interference. But at the same time I haven’t heard a rational defense of this position other than the fact that she’s against it.

When asked to name her favorite founding father, she said, “All of them.” While that might be true, it shows that maybe she hasn’t really thought all that much about the founders or the founding principles of the nation.

In the same way, the leftists at Intelligent Blah Blah Blah on Facebook provide no reasonable defense of their positions, other than calling anyone who disagrees with them Teabaggers, Baggers, anti-choice, Nazis, F’ing idiots and other vulgar word combinations, as well as original stuff like, “How’s that drill-baby-drill thing working out for you?” It’s like reading Bizarro Palin.

  1. Bill says:

    Boo hoo for Palin. She is being picked on.

    Palin is the most ignorant politician I’ve ever seen. Now all of a sudden she knows all there is to know about foreign policy. You apologist don’t change that/

  2. Club Soda says:

    Um… You might want to re-read the post. I don’t believe it’s a Palin apologist piece as much as it’s a missive against people, and this Facebook group in particular, who are obsessed with hating Palin.

  3. I read one paragraph and can absolutely shit on your argument. You said, “The ever-tolerant left wing is alive and well in its efforts to destroy one human being.” That is so ridiculous. I am what someone such as yourself would describe as being on the left, and I will say that I am not ever-tolerant. I would not claim to be. The right on the other hand are constantly proclaiming how tolerant they are and how they are such good Christians. Additionally, I would say that I can think of hand fulls of Democrats, who are human beings I might add, that the right wing media and the right try to destroy day in and day out no matter what. President Obama being arguably the best example of this hatred. He is their own president. Which makes them sound quite anti-American.

  4. Henshaw says:

    The preceding diatribe may have sounded like an “argument” in your head, but there’s nothing compelling about it. The president is unpopular in some parts of the US and that’s your argument. The president is always unpopular in some parts of the US. There’s nothing unique about Obama’s unpopularity, especially in relation to Bush.

    Thanks for leaving a deranged, foul mouthed, and incomprehensible comment. You helped make Club Soda’s point.
