Campus Conservatives are Dumb

wow, that's a newsflash.

from an essay in the american conservative:

"The time when Young Americans for Freedom wore badges blazoned with the slogan “Don’t Immanentize the Eschaton” has long passed. Now College Republicans parade in shirts proclaiming 'George W. Bush Is My Homeboy.' The campus Right has almost always been more activist than intellectual, just as the wider movement has been more political than cultural. But where once students were at least familiar with the names Kirk and Weaver, or Mises and Nock, today they look to Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter for guidance. They’re little acquainted with the wisdom of the contemporary Right’s founding generation, and it shows."

if more than two conservatives on any campus can tell me who von mises is and what he wrote i'll fly like a pig.

and look at the douche on the cover. does he not look neanderthal-like and just, well, regressed?
