Recipe for Disaster

My theory  is that the tortured utterances by rightwingers happen because they are really not very sharp.



They employ lazy reading; then, employing lazy thinking, they incorrectly digest what they read. To further complicate matters, they then lazily post their ill-conceived and illogical thoughts using sloppy writing skills.



Then, combine that with the fact that they get their news from such unreliable sources as Fox and Limbaugh.



It's a form of intellectual laziness. They don't read avidly; and when they do read, they miscomprehend what they read. Then, because they lack practice in the sort of critical thinking good reading requires, they employ sloppy thinking in evaluating what they thought they read.



It's a recipe for disaster.
