<\/a><\/p>\nCalling him a patent phony is being condescending<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Last week, the Washington Post, or as Howard Kurtz knows it, the most liberal editorial page around<\/a>, had an op-ed by Yes, why oh why?<\/p>\n Alexander then went on to have a chat yesterday<\/a>, the transcript shows that a third of it is him having to admit that liberals aren’t any more condescending than anyone else. Another third is a proclamation he is unaware of any prominent conservative referring to liberals as “un-American”. And finally the last third involved using ad hominem<\/em> analogies like ‘liberals believe’ “AIDS was developed in a U.S. military lab and used deliberately to infect people” to deflect from actual statistics showing huge swaths of conservatives believe in literal creationism<\/a>; deny global warming<\/a>; think Obama wasn’t born in American<\/a>; and that ACORN<\/a> is full of people with Hitler mustaches wearing Mao hats.<\/p>\n Seriously, read it<\/a>, it is ALL like that.<\/p>\n And how did this guy end up in the Post?<\/a><\/p>\nGerald<\/s> Gerard Alexander entitled, “Why are Liberals so Condescending?”<\/a><\/p>\n\n
