I'd like to buy a vowel, please.

I had heard that Pat Sajak was a blogger some time ago, thanks to Ace, but had never gotten around to reading his stuff. Looks like I've been missing out. Excerpt:


When Liberals want to legislate what youÂ’re allowed to drive or what you should eat or how much support you can give to a political candidate or what you can or canÂ’t say, they are doing it for altruistic reasons. The excesses of the Left are to be excused because these folks operate from the higher moral ground and the benefit of the greater wisdom and intelligence gained from that perspective.

In a different West Coast conversation, I complained to another Liberal friend about some of the Left’s tone concerning the 2004 elections. I thought it insulting to hear those “red state” voters caricatured as red-necked rubes. My friend asked, “Well, don’t you think that people who live in large urban areas, who travel and read and speak other languages are better able to make informed choices?” It turns out it is superiority, not familiarity, which breeds contempt.
