Liberals Whine, Seethe

Via Silflay Hraka, this:

But that's because you're a moron, easily distracted by sparkly lights and shiny objects. You were really voting to let small, inherently undemocratic groups run your state all the time, forever. The fact that you thought you were doing the former when in fact you were doing the latter suggests that you would have been more helpful in the governance of your state by hurling yourself off the Golden Gate Bridge and smacking into the bay below with a nice, bone-powdering swack. In addition to clearing out four million bottom-feeders from an already-overpopulated state, California might still have a government still nominally beholden to voters, instead of through special-interest control by mob rule proxy.

Which would be a fine rant, if the writer weren't, y'know, an idiot imbecile.

Tell me again how Gray Davis was our last bastion against the pernicious influence of special-interest groups?

Meanwhile, closer to (my) home, Tim Blair points us to this:

I sometimes think that people should be obliged to pass an examination in economics, history, geography, social science, current affairs and politics in order to earn the right to vote. Nothing against our friend Arnie, of course, who is a very worthy gentleman and probably not guilty of all the scurrilous things of which he has been accused. Yes, a minimum 50 per cent pass in the afore-mentioned subjects should be required for anyone to be given the title voter.

A thoroughgoing sleazebag has been booted from office after a budget blowout of mind-boggling proportions? Must be because the voters are idiots.

At least it's nice to see a couple of lefties with a basic grasp of spelling and grammar for a change.
