A capricious supposition if ever there was one.

If that's your idea of how logic works, suggest you go and get three
more degrees. The syllogism you fallaciously construct is this . . .

First Premise : George Bush went to an Ivy League school.

Second Premise: George Bush was a dumb president

Conclusion: Any non-Ivy Leaguer would make a good (smart) president.

Oy. If there was ever an example of logic like a mess of limp kugel
noodles there it is.

The actual syllogism constructed by the stated logic is as
follows . . .

First Premise : George Bush went to an Ivy League school.

Second Premise: George Bush was a dumb president

Conclusion: some Ivy-Leaguers make bad (dumb) presidents.

OR

Second Conclusion: Not all Ivy-Leaguers are smart

OR

Third Conclusion: In some cases, "An Ivy League education" can be an
oxymoron.

Sarcasm is too precious to be ill-placed. Save it for this . . .

Good. Be ticked off. LOL. And give yourself some kudos for getting the
point.

Sure you do--that's where you get the lousy permission for it, to
dehumanize a person like that. Nobody thought twice about saying the
same thing about Jews while they had the mass media permission of a
prejudiced consensus. Sarah Palin is no more a "joke' than being
Jewish is a joke. Shame on you! Sarah Palin is a human being and an
American stateswoman, a wife and mother who has every bit the same
right to pursue her ambitions as anyone else without being persecuted
for it by a bunch of no-class hyenas who hang on her every word,
expression and figure of speech to the single hostile purpose of
making a 'joke'. Sarah Palin "the joke" is not Sarah Palin the person,
the stateswoman and mother. That you chose to identitfy her as "a
joke" tells me the source of your opinions on Sarah Palin ARE jokes.
And how you would you like it if I were to say that YOU are a joke?
Hm? How 'bout that?

No, not hers. Yours. Don't you even so much as know that the
furthermost western stretch of the Aleutian Islands are Russian? Can
she see Russia from her house? Are you kidding? From Wasilla, north
of Fairbanks? She speaks by hyperbole. Man! GET a clue. On a clear
day, Russia can be seen from the furthest western extent of Alaska
("her house"). Anyone too dim to get what she meant by that is in NO
position to judge the intellect of Sarah Palin, but only to be suckers
for a joke.
