Via Cuffy Miegs of the Perfunction blog, let’s have some fun and paraphrase Janene Garofalo’s infamous rant last year on MSNBC, the channel that tarnishes daily the once proud reputations of NBC, Microsoft, and its corporate owner, General Electric:
You know, there’s nothing more interesting than seeing a bunch of Ruling Class reactionaries become confused and angry at events when they’re not quite certain what is being said. It sounds right and then it doesn’t make sense. Which, let’s be very honest about what this is about. It’s not about bashing Republicans, it’s not about taxes, they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don’t know their history at all. This is about hating conservatives in America. This is elitism straight up.
Which begs the question: Why don’t elites know their history — or at least how to use Google?
