Liberal hyocrisy and supposed intelligence

My last post brings something I have been wanting to blog about for quite a while and that's this concept that liberal/Democrat hypocrisy is somehow ok since their motives are noble, or that the "ends justify the means."

 

When I speak with  my liberal acquaintances and family members, yes, I have liberal/Democrat family members, it is the topic that I usually get back to since it such an easy issue to raise for which they have to either try and make a silly argument to cover for the hypocrisy, or they attempt to justify the behavior by pointing to someone else's hypocritical behavior: the "everyone is doing" argument from childhood.

 

Liberal/Democratic hypocrisy is going to be one of the major topics of this blog since it something that contradicts the assertion that liberal/Democratic politicians are more intellectual than conservatives. When liberal/Democratic supporters can't find something substantive or advantageous about the idols of their affection, they fall back on the bulwark of intelligence of their idols over the conservatives.

 

This was/is especially true when I speak with them about Gov. Sarah Palin during her unsuccessful campaign for US Vice President. Without stating any major facts other then Palin's poor showing on some interviews, they poke fun at her since she is obviously stupid because the media says she is.

 

I then simply ask them, "What has BHO done that is so noteworthy?" Now that BHO has become the new President-elect, you have to give him credit for running a very successful campaign, but it still doesn't answer the original question: what has BHO done that is so noteworthy? When they can't answer the pressed question for the 2nd or 3rd time, they fall back on BHO's supposed native intelligence.

 

This blog has shown that BHO has shown many instances of a lack of intelligence or simply lying which to me is a sign of lower intelligence since in today's 7/24 media and Internet services, it is almost impossible to get away with lying. So to do so means that you aren't thinking right or you are just mentally-weak.

 

To answer which is more important between intelligence or accomplishments, I ask you one question:

 

Would you rather have a doctor that has successfully accomplished the surgery you are about to undergo, or a doctor that is natively intelligent, but hasn't done the surgery yet?

 

Actions always speak louder than just words, and BHO has shown that he is a great speaker and teleprompter reader, but when asked to speak off the cuff or asked questions he has not been "prep'd" for, he usually does what most people do and that is "he sticks his foot in his mouth." (Example: Joe the Plumber's "share the wealth" response that almost dumped his campaign).

 

Intelligence without common sense gets you the sizzle, but rarely the substance.
