No. Just an unfortunate typo.

Dan Quayle once cost me the 250,000 point question at DL's Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

The question was a play on him having misspelled potato but I missed that play on words because the question started "Which presidential candidate..." and Quayle was never a presidential candidate, he only ever got so far as running to become a presidential candidate.

Those are great. I found my new facebook avatar and I think I may buy one too.

Typical leftist elitism. Someone doesn't like their man or their candidate, so it must be because they are stupid.

Am I missing something? To what are you referring, Leo?

Uh... Leo... Have you listened to any of the Tea Party followers? I think we're being kind.

ISM, I was referring to JW's "truth in advertising t-shirts" image. It implies that tea party voters are just plain stupid. Someone has differing views than yours, they must be stupid.

I'm sure some are.

As with any movement, I could ask if you have listened to some of the things Obama supporters have said, and then apply those across the board to all Obama supporters. That would be ludicrous. I don't think all Obama supporters are stupid, but some are. I don't think all Obama supporters are socialists, but some are. Ad infinitum.

It grows tiresome.

Sorry Leo, but the teapartiers are all pretty much the same. Older naive Americans who are afraid because there is a black man with a funny name in the White House who they are convinced is a Muslim born in Kenya; people who have no clue what the Constitution says or how the government functions and who listen to nothing but Fox News. They are a joke. If you and your fellow conservative had any sense you would distance yourselves from them, and not embrace them.

Like I said earlier, typical leftist elitism.
