Lazy Gopher Pachyderm

VDH is one of my favorite authors and he skewers Kerry and his like-minded travellers in a wonderful, short, eight-point essay.

While the whole thing should be read, two points are worth extra attention:

"Without being gratuitously cruel, the problem of mediocrity is not in the ranks of the military, but on our university campuses, where half-educated professors and non-serious students killing time are ubiquitous….

"And why is the supposedly lame Bush so careful in speech, and the self-acclaimed geniuses like a Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, or Howard Dean serially spouting ever more stupidities?"

Brilliant stuff.
