Articulate? Wtf??
« on: November 18, 2009, 06:41:51 PM »
I'll preface this by saying I don't care a whole lot for talk radio.  It's not that I dislike it, it's just not for me, although I do listen occasionally.  At any rate, I happened to be listening to Mark Levin (nasal sort of voice?) Tuesday night, and he had a brilliant caller go on a two to three minute dissection of the irony behind how the black community as a whole has contributed to its own disenfranchisement over the past 3 decades.  When he was done there was silence, until Mr. Levin contributed:

"You are the best (IIRC)...smart...articulate...blah blah."

Wtf dude.  Seriously?  Articulate is such a lame adjective, and it was nearly insulting when applied to the caller's excellent analysis.  Saying it about a black conservative is just...really stupid.  Like, wear-a-helmet-you-moran stupid.

Needless to say, it was back to the usual XM14.
Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.   ~Robert A. Heinlein

...let the cannibal who snarls that the freedom of man's mind was needed to create an industrial civilization, but is not needed to maintain it, be given an arrowhead and bearskin, not a university chair of economics.

This is in TFC because?

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years.  The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Maybe he confused it with the whiny forum? 

I have no idea.
