How to determine: Idiot or not an Idiot?

We now have a foolproof way of determining if someone is a total blithering idiot. I have been looking for a test of some kind for a while and now we have one.

Ask someone, "Do you think Bill Bennett is a racist based on his remarks on his radio show last Wednesday regarding abortion?"

If they do, they are an idiot. Taking someone completely out of context, reading into their clearly stated remarks the exact opposite of what they said, and then spreading that ignorance around to others is a sure sign of an ignoramus. Of course, they could be doing it purposefully and thereby, are more on the deceitful side of the spectrum than the stupid one. Nancy Pelosi is a good example of the former whereas Barbara Boxer is a prime example of the latter.

For a more in-depth explanation of why it is impossible for Bennett to be what his critics are saying, read this column from Andy McCarthy.
