these people are highly educated.

which means that they probably trend towards the left.

which means they will use their education and emplyment to destroy all that is holy in this country.

That is all.

Recent college graduates who as seniors scored highest on a standardized test to measure how well they think, reason and write — skills most associated with a liberal arts education — were far more likely to be better off financially than those who scored lowest . . .

LOL, how ridiculous.

I knew the USA Today had gotten bad, basically a picturebook for the morning, but goodness gracious this is absurd.

Academically Adrift says people who are in the Liberal Arts "learn" the most in college. Business and Education the least.

Dr. Brian Nosek, a University of Virginia psychologist, echoed those sentiments.

"Reality is complicated and messy," he told The Huffington Post in an email. "Ideologies get rid of the messiness and impose a simpler solution. So, it may not be surprising that people with less cognitive capacity will be attracted to simplifying ideologies."

But Nosek said less intelligent types might be attracted to liberal "simplifying ideologies" as well as conservative ones.

Obama is definitely an ideologue, so this makes sense.   Also, Biden invalidates the authors entire premise.

The entire study is BS and the article is written by an ideologue. Both are working under the assumption that all conservatives are racist, which is the narcissistic view of the left.  The quote is in direct contrast of the entire study and article and only a moron would have included it in the first place.

I googled that guy, and his law partner in Chicago is Guillermo Perez at the law firm of Perez and Vandervoort.  How ironic for a racist.  :tongue:

Edit: Also has a liberal arts degree.   :runaway:
