. . . No matter how far the ideological pendulum swings in the short term, in the end the bedrock common sense of the American people will prevail.

For Liberals, The Observation That "The Peasants Are Revolting" Is A Pun.
The title of this post is a quote of one of the more trenchant and humorous observations made by Charles Krauthammer in his article today, "The Great Peasant Revolt of 2010." The article is a bit of shooting fish in the barrel. Krauthammer uses his column to frame a truism, that the far left, in their boundless arrogance, view the average American as intellectualy challenged and heap upon those who object to their agenda charges of a nefarious motivation. It is a very enyoyable read. As Krauthammer concludes:
Did the Politically Correct Though Police accuse you of "Peasantism"?
ReplyDeleteI got in trouble last year when I blogged a story about nude models in Paris staging a naked rebellion about pay and conditions under the Title "Nude Models Of Paris Are Revolting." Even when I spelled it out they still insisted I was being sexist.
Lol. That's funny. The thought police are both out of control and lacking in any sense of humor.

I was talking to the ankle grabbing!?!? What happened to them, dammit!!??
Along the same lines, I like a great Dilbert strip in which Dogbert comes in with his crown and scepter, and intones:
