MikeWaters is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Jay Nordlinger is an idiot

Quote:
A word about Rick Perry, which serves as a general word as well: There are inarticulate people who are plenty smart. There are articulate people who aren’t very smart at all — just articulate. Perry strikes me as cursed with inarticulateness.
If you can't tell that Rick Perry is not smart at all (this is a guy who flunked classes at Texas A&M and can't put a cogent sentence together about his own plans in now several debates)....

...what does that say about you?

I had/have the same complaint about Sarah Palin. If you can't tell that she isn't sharp, then well, you're in the same boat as her.

Does this look like an intelligent man?



I think Nordlinger may fall in the category of articulate idiot. I say articulate because he is a professional writer. Though I've never read anything of his that impressed me at all.

A lot of schlock at the NR. It's embarrassing.
