@ RightSaidFred

I had an extended email exchange with Scott Thompson just before the election last autumn.

The man is simply incapable of comprehending some things. He's not 'stupid', just- Well, obdurate and intellectually lazy. Some of the stuff that comes out of his mouth is astounding. He sure does fit in with much of what I've heard on North American 'talk radio'.

What's all the sadder is that he feeds (and taps into) those Hamiltonians who are also intellectually lazy, who are looking more for comfort than comprehension, more damnation than dynamic discourse. (Actually, he reminds me of the forwarded emails I get, the factually-inaccurate but really animated right-wing soapbox stuff that always elicits an eye-roll. And a shake of the head.)
