What twelve year olds can do

So that fat drug addict and law breaker Rush Limbaugh says no twelve year old can come up with something like what Graeme Frost said on his now famous response to our Child Hatin' Chickenhawk in Chief's radio address where he said he was going to veto S-CHIP, you remember S-CHIP right? It's one of the few government programs that has worked under Bush and his gang of thieves. Rush says that no 12 yr old is smart enough to have the kinds of ideas and phrases that young Frost espoused. Well kids, as usual, Rush was wrong.


Apparently in Rush's world only he and maybe his Reich wing twin Michael Malkin, who I'm sorry to say shares my birthday, only they had the intellectual capacity to have advanced thoughts and the ability to covey said thoughts in the proper manner at the tender age of 12. Apparently the rest of us were just learning what our pee pee's and hoo hoo's were and what that watery stuff was that dribbled out of them from time to time. We all must have been tackling semi advanced concepts like zipping up our pants or buttoning our shirts at 12. And maybe, if you were real lucky then you might have been smart enough to use a fork or knife.


Oh wait a sec, maybe it's just the liberals kids who are so stupid they can't think or have ideas for themselves at 12. Oh shit, hang on, that can't be true because liberals teach their children to think for themselves and not to accept the bile that is spewed forth from people like Rush and Michael Mailkin and Hannity.


Speaking from experience when I was 12 I understood very advanced concepts and ideas and I was able to speak at length about them. Why was that? It wasn't because I was especially smart or a freakin' genius or anything, nor was it because I was precocious and I mimicked the speech of adults around me, no, it was because I was taught to read and to think for myself. Of course Graeme Frost could have written his own speech, he seems smart enough to have done so and I for one am grateful he did. What they hate about young Master Frost and his family and that other family is that they had the balls to speak out against the President. All Reich wingers hate dissent and they especially hate people who are smart and who think for themselves. You want proof they hate smart people? Well just go back a few months ago when Rove said that all the President's critics were "effete intellectual snobs." They use that anti intellectual rhetoric when they get caught in yet another lie. And then when they get caught trying to cover up getting caught, they smear whoever they can, whether it's smart 12 yr old boy who was lucky enough to get the medical care he needed to stay alive or whether it's the newest Nobel Peace Prize laureate.


They say the only things you can count on in this life are death and taxes. I'd go ahead and add that you can count on Republicans and their pals in the corporate media to attack anyone who tries to make them be more humane and make them pay more taxes to help out the disadvantaged.
