Default Re: An IQ test for liberals (and AndyFox :) )

How about just copying the argument from Political Brain for those of us who wish to read it but have slow dial-up or don't wish to bother using bugmenot to read it?


"It shouldn't take much to realize that it's wrong to say conservatives or liberals are smarter. To state otherwise is to be a bigot."

So...just how does one know that it isn't true that either liberals or conservatives are smarter than the other? Because it would be bigoted to think otherwise?;-)

Groundlessly making statements one way or the other may be bigoted. However stating that on average neither are smarter is unfounded (unless you are aware of some little-known studies).

Bigoted and unfounded are both undesirable from a scientific point of view.

I vote Jimbo design a better test than the one on that link.
