I'm not quite sure why people listen to Drudge or feed off his website. I feel that he does a lot of harm. I think he is just like O'Reilly.

I guess it all depends on how you look at it. Personally, I think he's merely exposing the riduluousness of the progressive liberal left. Nobody but a deranged lunatic can take that kind of diatribe seriously, can they?

Put a few questions about pickemup trucks, shotguns, and hay balers on the SAT, and see how smart them city folk are (GRIN).

I've lived in the sticks most of my life...grand parents didn't get electricity until I was in my teens...(I'm 34) and I've qualified for MENSA membership several times over...

the problem with most academics is that they've got no damn common sense and they're too damn arrogant to realize / admit the depths of their ignorance...

One of my favorite past times these days is butchering supposedly educated medical students and newly minted doctors, when they make negative comments about nurses and EMTs... the old docs have been humbled too many times and don't mouth off as much as the overeducated/underexperienced young ones...kind of like junior officers and senior NCO's, the smart kids LISTEN to the E-6+ !

I can't STAND mouthy ba*stards! I usually just ignore 'em...they're pretty damn useless when it comes down to actually producing anything of value...

I recently let my left wing liberal degenerate chemistry professor embarrass himself... he took an informal poll on class time, and then called me stupid for being an "anti-Kerry redneck"...

after I dressed him down in front of the whole class for talking politics when he should have been talking talking chemistry, I pointed out that I not only had the highest average in his class, but that I had a PERFECT 100% average, something, according to him, no student had ever done before... (not bad for a stupid red-neck), and that I would be talking to his boss 1st thing in the morning... he received a written reprimand, and I received an "A"...

screw the intellectual elite...they are trained to RECITE, not to THINK!

most of 'em are parroting monkeys who are too damn dumb to pour piss out of a boot with instructions printed on the heel...

Rush read almost the entire article on his show this afternoon. I
think Drudge is just helping to expose what the liberal elites think
of us in the red states. You would think that the outcome of this
election (not just for POTUS, but also for the Senate and HOR) would
make them take a hard look at themselves and their party. Instead,
this woman writes an article calling us "ignorant and unteachable".
That just illustrates how ignorant and unteachable THEY are.

I would have loved to witness that. Way to go.

That's a good comparison - unfortunately he has "first mover" status on the internet...and conservatives made him and are having a hard time saying "goodbye."

That poses a testable hypothesis. I will wager that illiteracy and violent crime are much higher in the blue counties than the red counties.

Well, melodrama and hysterics are certainly more plentiful in blue states than red states.
