Iggy on Dennis and Callahan: Majority "Rules"

There was relative calm on the show today. Iggy did get a bit smug at one point, claiming that 70% of Americans think like he does. I'm not sure from which hole he pulled that statistic, but Iggy, even if 70% of Americans did think like you (and I use the word think more loosely than Madonna's standards for sleeping with someone), it would not mean they were right. It would simply mean 70% of Americans are as ignorant as you.

Democracy is more often than not nothing more than the tyranny of the majority. That's why we have a constitution that is supposed to protect us from the "we know better than you" types like your messiah. That is also why activist, liberal judges have spent the past 80 years ignoring and trampling on the constitution - its the only way liberal policies could ever stand the test of legality.

As an aside, holding my nose and choking back bile as I say this, Iggy did have one valid point for the first time in . . . well, ever. During Headlines, John read a story about how while there are only five Republicans in the entire Massachusetts Senate, they all hold various leaderships positions, qualifying each of them for additional funding. Iggy taunted Gerry, asking him if he was going to rant about it like he would if they were Democrats. John and Gerry both defended the situation because it was within the rules of the Senate, not a situation involving graft, corruption and bribery - you know, the currency of Democrats.

Still, even though five leadership titles for the five republicans may be within the rules of the Senate, under the principle of leading by example, the Republicans should choose to forgo the extra funds. Not only would it be a shining example of what conservatism is supposed to be, it's a necessary, symbolic, political move in a state where 60% of the voters are moon bat, brainwashed, Iggyots.

Have a nice weekend everyone!
