A High IQ is no guarantee that anyone is right.
Some people may believe that because someone is smarter than others that the person is right, but that is untrue.
Look at todays colleges. Is there any question that college professors have high IQ's?
Then look at the BS they are teaching our youth. Communism, Socialism.
All taught by brilliant people. people with high IQ's.
But their IQ's are wasted on wrong thoughts and proven failed systems.
They impress the kids, but many of us older dummies know better.

Unvaccinated Americans Should ‘Face Some Consequences’
“I want to talk to you about this new CNN analysis showing that since the vaccines have … become widely available, the risk of dying from COVID is more than 50% higher in states that voted for Donald Trump than in states that voted for Biden,” Lemon told Andy Slavitt, the Biden administration’s White House senior advisor for COVID response.
Slavitt said that “what President Biden does” through vaccine mandates “is continually [call] for everyone to pull together, make this not political.”
Lemon, who has supported punishing unvaccinated Americans for months, said he felt it was wrong that people “who are doing the right thing” had “to face the dire consequences of the people who are doing the wrong thing.” He then asked regarding those he believes are in the wrong, “Shouldn’t they face some consequences for that?”
Slavitt replied, “Look, the elephant in the room here is that about 20% of the public really doesn’t believe in science or institutions or the Establishment.”

‘Did Don Lemon Get Any Oxygen At Birth?’
Don Lemon then explained 2020 car accidents by showing b-roll footage of confrontations that took place in 2021.
CNN showed a montage of a fist fight that broke out at Lee County (Florida) School District on August 31; a stand-off in a Tennessee parking lot on August 10; and a confrontation between airline personnel and guests who did not properly wear a mask inside a JetBlue flight from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to San Diego, California, on September 10.
Lemon omitted footage of the most uncivil actions of 2020: The BLM riots that decimated cities nationwide, burned down inner-city stores and police precincts, and claimed the life of former St. Louis police captain David Dorn. CNN infamously described the arson-fueled unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as “fiery but mostly peaceful protests.”
Although Lemon projected 2021’s controversies backwards onto 2020’s highways, guest Pam Shadel Fischer of the Governors Highway Safety Association said automobile wrecks increased due to the stress and addiction caused by last year’s COVID-19 pandemic:

‘I’m A Grown-A** Man … Kiss My Behind’: Don Lemon Launches Self-Pitying Rant On New Year’s Eve
“I am who I am,” Lemon boasted. “I’m a grown, successful black man who a lot of people hate because they’re not used to people seeing me – and people like me – in the position that I am. To be able to share what I … my point of view on television, it freaks people out. And you know what? You can kiss my behind. I do not care. I don’t care. I really don’t care. I have one life and this is who I am and I feel very, um …”
Sloan interjected gushingly, “Blessed.”
“Blessed,” Lemon repeated. “And honored to be in this position to be able to do this. So all the hate I get? It’s motivation to me. Bring it. I don’t care.”

Although Lemon stated on New Year’s Eve, “To be able to share what I … my point of view on television, it freaks people out,” bragging about offering his opinion, he had previously insisted that he did not foist his opinion on the public with his point of view, saying last August:
Oh I Think Lemon is VERY Bothered By Criticizem and clueless ...
I'm not and opinion host, but I have a point of view - that's the very definition of an opinion

Rand Paul Is ‘Jealous’ Of Anthony Fauci: CNN Host
CNN’s Don Lemon played a portion of the hearings on his show Tuesday night, before accusing Paul of having a case of sour grapes.
“You have advocated that your infallible opinion be dictated by law,” Paul told Fauci during the portion of the testimony played by Lemon.
“Did you catch that this time?” Lemon asked his audience. “Is somebody — is he jealous? Is somebody jealous of Dr. Fauci?”
“That’s what it sounds like if you, like, read the intonation and the body language, right?” Lemon asserted. But reading body language may not be Lemon’s forté. When a man named Dustin Hice allegedly approached Lemon at a Long Island bar in summer 2018, Lemon allegedly rubbed his hands on his genitalia, then thrust them under Hice’s nose while asking, “Do you like p** or d*?” Hice filed a $1.5 million lawsuit, which has not yet been fully adjudicated.
Lemon has regularly impugned the motives of his critics, rather than dealing with the substance of their arguments. He has repeatedly demeaned those who oppose his political agenda as being aligned with neo-Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan.

The headline very concisely grabs the entirety of liberal politics - their opinions are unassailable because they’re the pure and unadulterated truth.
Hence - you don’t compromise - why compromise with truth? Hence demonization of their enemies - because they can only oppose the truth by a moral failing or ignorance. Hence favoring censorship because while tolerate falsehood? Hence tolerance and unity gain new meaning - agreement WITH ME. You see this in the minor tantrums they throw where they’re sick and tired of being opposed.
One of the first things my boss taught me in programming is - your program is never 100% perfect no matter how simple it is. I took issue with it and showed him one. In two seconds he said what if the input has THIS? But it’s never SUPPOSED to have that. Yeah - you go with that. Hence the vigilance and pragmatism. It works for NOW but it’s not the truth. The world doesn’t operate with “the truth “ and falsehood. And it changes. What works now may not work tomorrow.
And that’s the stuff of politics and the world. There’s what works. Period.

This seems to be the new mantra of the vapid class - if you criticize them it's because you're jealous. AOC started it with her "Republicans just criticize me because they all want to sleep with me" proclamation.
For all their claims that Donald Trump is thin-skinned and can't take criticism, they prove every day that they themselves are ultra sensitive, insecure, and childish.
Anyway, I can't stand Don Lemon. Not only is he retarded, he has those male hooker bedroom eyes and blowjob lips that reek of fatuousness.
CNN's Don Lemon rails against unvaccinated 'idiots': 'We have to start doing things for the greater good'
Hosts John Berman and Kasie Hunt began the topic by playing a viral video of Mexican news anchor Leonardo Schwebel losing it on unvaccinated people and those choosing not to wear masks. In the video, Schwebel can be seen screaming erratically into the camera and cursing.
"I've gotten criticized for saying that we need to stop listening to the people, and they should not be part of polite society," Lemon said before declaring that Schwebel was right.
"Listen, the unvaccinated people in the U.S. are key to the reason that coronavirus – the variants – are emerging … and the reason why it's replicating and mutating. It's because of unvaccinated people who are doing their own research online," he added.

Don Lemon: 'We're Not Doing Our Jobs' if Media is Fair to GOP
Recently, CNN’s New Day has been on a streak of providing fairly objective reporting. Alas, it was a streak that Don Lemon decided to end this Thursday morning, ambling over from his nightly slots for what seemed to be a monthly Festivus tradition of his: complaining that the media isn’t doing enough to attack Republicans. Essentially openly opposing new CNN boss Chris Licht’s reported desire to bring CNN back to journalism and away from Lemon’s brand of partisanship.
The reason Lemon graced the TV screens at such an early hour was apparently due to an interview on Wednesday evening, where former Proud Boys spokesperson Jason van Tatenhove expressed fears of political extremists rising to prominence in the Republican Party, and NYU History professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat said, “I don't think a lot of people know that on the local and state level there's a lot of intermingling and fusion between extremists and the GOP, and I really see the GOP as an extremist entity now.”
Lemon described the interview as “one of the most surreal moments I think I’ve ever had on CNN,” and echoed the opinions of his two guests:
Using a tiny fraction of extremists to smear the entire GOP is par for the course for Lemon, but he really raised eyebrows when he said, “We cannot sit here and pretend like, well, Republicans it's a — cut them a break. Let’s — we want to hear — they have a lot to answer for in this moment.”
Don Lemon Says It's Their 'Job' To Trash GOP Nightly
CNN host Don Lemon appeared on their morning show to rant about how Republicans are "very dangerous to our society" and "we have to acknowledge that. We have to acknowledge that as Americans, we must acknowledge that as journalists, because if we don't we’re not doing our jobs." Lemon should put on a pink knitted hat and be an activist.
We also discuss how Morning Joe touted an all-female show on Broadway called POTUS honored the First Lady character as the one who should be president, and then "the audience literally in the middle of the show rose to their feet, turned towards Hillary and applauded her for like for over a minute, which is a long time in the theater."

CNN’s Don Lemon Wants Media To Treat Republicans As a Danger to Society
“Republicans are doing something that is very dangerous to our society and we have to acknowledge that.”
“The American people have a choice in front of them and the president laid that out very clearly, very powerfully tonight. When you look at what Democrats are doing and what they are delivering, and what they have done, Don, in less than two years, which is lowering costs on prescription drugs, lowering the energy costs, making sure that we have this historic legislation to really deal with [the] climate crisis. All of these things are important,” Jean-Pierre told Lemon.
Lemon was less than satisfied with her answer, asking once more what Biden meant.
“And they are," Lemon interrupted, adding “Karine, I want to get to all of those things with all due respect, but we have a short time. I'm going to get to all those things, but if you'll answer my question.”
“I am… I was just about to get to your question. I really was… You brought me on the show for a reason. And I have to talk about,” Jean-Pierre said just as Lemon interrupted for a second time.
Clearly frustrated, Lemon said “I understand that, I just have limited time with you… I just want to make sure that we get all the answers.”

LOWERING ENERGY COSTS? Why don't they just add "cure cancer" to the mix?
I don't have a single energy cost of any kind that isn't MUCH higher just since he took office.

You want to see energy costs rise just watch as electric companies try to put in the infrastructure needed to support all electric homes and cars. Their output they have now will have to be tripled., and they have to be able to deliver that energy.
These electric aficionados are crazy.
