It's telling when people unintentionally tell the truth. What especially sickens me about the vid is all the standard right-wing victimization the frothy fellow brings forth. The media is against them. The education system is against them. The smart people are against them. And on and on. Paranoia mixed with a dollop of fear is the new recipe for the right. But it works. Look at CNN, so fearful of being called liberal, they devote many, many stories to the ramblings of the rightosphere, truth be damned.

Compare with this (probably) apocryphal exchange between Democratic presidential candidate Adlai Stevenson and a supporter:
Supporter: "Senator, you have the vote of every thinking person!"
Stevenson: "That's not enough, madam, we need a majority!"
