Exquisite Idiocy

The cure for the evils of democracy is more democracy!

H. L. Mencken, Notes on Democracy, 1926

 

Chuck… is an idiot.

 

My aunt may take exception with this comment as she is a firm believer in respect. Fair enough.

 

Charles Ellis Schumer, Democratic United States Senator from New York and currently United States Senate Minority Leader… is an Idiot.

 

This comment is not based upon his intractability in the budget battle. His statements  concerning how the Democrats are winning the public relations war is not the mark of an idiot. His lack of concern relative to the pain he personally is inflicting on the American people in the furtherance of his ego is not the mark of an idiot. Preserving his power at all costs and to avoid a primary challenge is not idiotic.

 

Chuck’s entire rationale is stupid. His actions are purely political and will no doubt leave him in the dustbin of history. The elctorate will serve political justice to Chuck and it will not be pretty.

 

So this post is not about the absolute failure of Chuck as a leader.

 

It is about the fact that Chuck is an idiot.

 

To wit:

 

There is a video circulating that has Chuck discussing the three branches of government. A most senior legislator. A man in the hierarchy of the United States government. A man who has sworn to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of The United States. This was not an errant slip, but part of a floor speech.

 

Three parts?

 

The House, Senate and White House.

 

He omitted the Judiciary, the entire court system.

 

Chuck is an idiot.
