Tracy Morgan and the Hypocrisy of the Ignorant Left
. . . Not only was the “comedian” not rebuked or censored for his witticism by the “NBA on TNT” commentators, among whom was NBA great, Charles Barkley, made on a sports show yet, but the liberal National Organization for Women has uttered nary a peep about Morgan snidely reducing a woman to a sick, sex object.
Nor has the NOW crowd peeped even after Morgan reinforced his sexual slur by adding, “the glasses and all of that . . . great masturbation material,” which evoked rollicking guffaws at his crude one-liner from Barkley and his buddies.
I re-posted the article on various websites and received the following verbatim critique:
“SharonH wrote, in response to Gene Lalor:
people ‘attack’ her (as you say) because she is ignorant!!!! Tracy Morgan is apparently ignorant as well, but you are not going to convince people to vote for Palin because some liberals are stupid. . . There is enough of that to go around for sure. . . but Palin can’t be your candidate, no matter how much you want it.

It was a curious response, to say the least, curious for various reasons among which is that I wasn’t trying “to convince people to vote for Palin because some liberals are stupid” or “ignorant.” I was simply trying to demonstrate the depths to which liberals stoop to denigrate her. Secondly, Palin is not my candidate and hasn’t declared her candidacy for any office, anyway.
Presumed and obviously very angry liberal “SharonH” did lead me to wonder why a liberal would defensively assume I felt those on the Left were either stupid or ignorant. After a little research, I came to understand “SharonH’s” defensiveness and I can now conclude that libs are both stupid and ignorant. They may have more advanced degrees than the average conservative in flyover country which does not mean they are smarter; it just means they go to school more.
Witness the article on the ultra-liberal Slate.com referring to Morgan’s masturbation observation titled, “Tracy Morgan: Loose Cannon Hero.” It leads with, “The comic’s latest riff on Sarah Palin sparked outrage–but it’s what makes him great. . .

Reality Check on the Left Coast
Reality Check on the Left Coast
The inability to distinguish reality from fantasy is usually harmless–in a three or four year old.
For the rest of us, that failure can be a sign of a serious mental disorder or just a refusal to accept what exists, or it could simply involve believing what you want to be true when the alternative is just too unpleasant to contemplate.
Our president was giving a pep talk to some supporters out on the left coast on Thursday in his continuing quest to preserve Democrat majorities in the House and Senate. It was a small group gathered at the University of Washington’s Husky Stadium, the overflow from the main event in UW’s basketball arena which was a sign of Obama’s times. Two years ago he would have filled the stadium, not just an arena.
His address was interrupted by an Obama enthusiast which led to the president giving an impromptu evaluation of the first two years of his presidency.
Obama was saying, “And for all the problems we’re going through right now, we still have the best workers on Earth, we’ve got the finest universities on Earth, we’ve got the best entrepreneurs on Earth. We’ve got the freest, most vibrant economy on Earth . . . “ It was at that point that one of his fans shouted out, “Best president on Earth!”
Now, admittedly, Obama was in an awkward spot there–and without his best buddy, his trusty teleprompter. . .
