Ted Rall: Iraq war will raise national IQ by sending idiots who’d enlist off to die

Yeah…if you send off only our reporters! Douchebag.

Mr. Rall, since you pride yourself on your ability to spread it on thick and black, I have a job that is a real promotion. You can shine the boots of my son and all the other cadets at the Air Force Academy! I know it will test your abilities but I think you’ve proven you can go that low to get the job done.

The average IQ of American soldiers is substantially above national average. This is not even open to dispute, since the military conducts EXTENSIVE IQ tests (parts of the AFQT are essentially high quality IQ-tests) , and cuts of almost all applicants with low IQ. Of the 30% of the population with lowest IQ the army takes less than one in ten. Steve Sailor has calculated the average IQ of the troops.

The average enlisted has an IQ of 105, compared to 98 for the national average. The officers have even higher average IQ.

Even an idiot liberal should understand that killing people that are smarter than average lowers average national IQ, not vice versa (of course 4000 people is 0,0013% of the US population, and doesn’t effect national IQ-averages in any way). Anyway the point is simple:

Facts show indisputably that the average IQ of Americans soldiers is substantially above the national average.

PS. Since when is it OK to discuss average national IQ? Isn’t the lefts entire ideology based on the premise that IQ doesn’t exists, or at least that average IQ doesn’t matter? Regardless of the smug stupidity of Rall, is IQ really an issue that left should be talking about?

Strangely, I don’t!

So true. Men at war with men. It’s sad, dangerous, and common.

MRR: I want to ask about your childhood. Where did you get to be bitter?

T: That’s an easy one. I was raised in Kettering, a lily white suburb of Dayton, Ohio. My father divorced my mother when I was 2 and hit the road, leaving us to totally starve. I had a very poor childhood, and even though my mom worked really hard and did her best, it was always a question as to where my next meal was coming from up until high school. I did a lot of odd jobs. That’s where I picked up a real anger towards people who are irresponsible and just take off but then think it’s OK and want your love. It’s like how I look at rich people: it’s not enough that they’re stealing your money and having you live poor, but then they want you to admire and like them. Hey, I may not kill you, that’s already a favor! Then, where I grew up everybody was so right wing, racist, homophobic, stupid, ignorant. It’s the kind of place where if you read a book you’d get your a** kicked!

Daddy! Please love me! I HATE YOU DADDY HERE’S A MEAN CARTOON TO HURT YOUR FEELINGS I’m sorry Daddy I didn’t really mean it DIE YOU S.O.B. DIE…

Pat Robertson is going to have to work pretty hard to keep up with these guys.
I predicted not so long ago that as the new atheism geared up it would increasingly be subject to the kind of bad press and scandal to which Christianity is already prone. I…

So hate speech is okay if it’s aimed at our military?

Who is publishing this hate speech, anyway?

This idiot needs to be banned!

EEprom, I think he was role playing on purpose. He’s speaking Dhimmi.

I apologise and stand corrected

Ted Rall is subhuman trash. I’d piss on him, as long as he wasn’t on fire.

My son’s IQ tested at about 160+.

What’s yours, you sad waste of protein?

USE him. He’s the textbook definition of a very useful idiot.

Michael Moore did more than anyone in the country to defeat “3-Purple-Hearts” Kerry.

He’s our very best weapon.

If you feel you must indulge him in his latest plea for attention,

Maybe rall and carlin could just get a room together and indulge each other.
I wonder how long either one of them could take it.

Much of the left’s hate speech bears greater similarity to a psychological disorder than to standard political discourse. The hatred is blinding, producing logical contradictions that would be impossible to sustain were it not for the central element faith plays in the left’s new religion. The basic tenet of their faith is this: Maybe they were wrong on facts and policies, but they are good and conservatives are evil. You almost want to give it to them. It’s all they have left.
