Leaders lead, intellectuals think but can't lead.

My cousin received his Cadet of the Quarter award for leading the effort
to hold a major exercise between the Army, Air Force, Army Guard, Army
Reserve, Air Guard and Air Force Reserve and the Corps of Cadets at West
Point. During this same ceremony he received his 100 hour patch for
walking off 100 demerits.

Put your "intellectuals" on your staff, where the belong, not in
command.

But, the libertarians have more influence than the Communists? By the

Thank you for confirming that the Democrats form 1865 until 1965 were
hell bent on disenfranchising blacks from voting. And, there were a
couple of them into the 1970's.

Sounds like the way liberals talk of conservatives...more of a parody
than anything else.
