Don’t be fooled by the Congressional testimony circus of Attorney General William Barr on the follow up to the Mueller Report. This is about nothing but the left’s paranoia, probably well-founded, and fear of the new AG’s commitment to get to the crux of the real collusion in the Russia election interference witch hunt. After all, we finally have in place a real AG after one who recused himself from this case almost even before it began and his predecessor who defaulted to the multi-flawed director of the FBI on the case after spending some time on the airport tarmac with Bill Clinton. And the “get Trump at all costs” crowd knows that they must discredit Barr now while they still have a TV show-trial audience because they know that he knows exactly what he’s doing and where he’s going from here with his investigation into the true origins of this debacle.
Of all the quotes this week, I particularly thought this one from Barton Swaim was applicable: “It is the peculiar failing of highly educated elites to believe that their own views need no defense and have no opponents worth thinking about. Once you take that attitude, you’re a soft touch for duplicitous self-promoters such as a certain former FBI director”.
The truth will finally win.
Substitute the name of any Democratic president or AG, and ask yourself if you would write, the same piece under the same circumstances.
And the quote: “…“It is the peculiar failing of highly educated elites ..”
Isn’t “education” what this site is all about?
So is now going to be about the promotion of the “dumbing down” of the general populace, such that one can proclaim “I love the uneducated?”
Well, I hope this site is about more than education per se, however important it is, and I don’t favor any dumbing down, but I do think that Bill Buckley was on to some key wisdom with his quote that he would rather be governed by the first 2,000 names in the Boston phone directory than the Harvard faculty.
I vote with Jim!!
