Condescending liberals

The mission statement of my blog states, in part, that my goal is to educate "America to the pitfalls and perils of the 'feeling, but not thinking'" ideology known as liberalism. Part of that education process is to point out consistently what the left thinks of you, the average American voter. I mentioned an example in a previous posting of mine (link here).

Mark Steyn has a column that even better illustrates this contempt. An excerpt:

If you don't want to bother plowing your way through Alterman and Smiley, a placard prominently displayed by a fetching young lad at the post-election anti-Bush rally in San Francisco cut to the chase: "F--- MIDDLE AMERICA."

Almost right, man. It would be more accurate to say that "MIDDLE AMERICA" has "F---ed" you, and it will continue to do so every two years as long as Democrats insist that anyone who disagrees with them is, ipso facto, a simpleton -- or "Neanderthal," as Teresa Heinz Kerry described those unimpressed by her husband's foreign policy. In my time, I've known dukes, marquesses, earls, viscounts and other members of Britain's House of Lords and none of them had the contempt for the masses one routinely hears from America's coastal elites. And, in fairness to those ermined aristocrats, they could afford Dem-style contempt: A seat in the House of Lords is for life; a Senate seat in South Dakota isn't.

Ouch! The full column can be read here and it's mandatory reading! You MUST read this! Have I made myself clear? :)
