Irony on a cataclysmic scale
DoughBob Loadpants: The day after his execrably stupid column asking whether Obama’s call for national service was not equivalent to a call for slavery, can-only-aspire-to-moron-status NRO nepotism exhibit Jonah Goldberg has the temerity to ask whether Obama is “Dishonest or Stupid?”
Why? Because in his view, bilingualism has nothing “to do with the importance of teaching kids a second language” and anyone who things that bilingualism is connected to learning a second language has no idea what he’s talking about.
Pantload, meet Mr. Webster:

But then again, Jonah’s primary vocation for the past few years has been the exhibition of stupidity to grotesque excess.
Although Jonah’s fact-challenged and intellectually-stunted writing often raises the question “stupid or dishonest” reflection on his past works pretty quickly leads to one conclusion: it’s the stupid.
Maybe Mr. Goldberg could tell us about the extensive service and sacrifice he has made for this country….I’m sure it would be brief.
I also think he sets out to be dishonest but he’s too stupid to pull it off properly.
