liberal = anti-rational hack

Here's another reason (as if one were needed) to despise the anti-intellectualism of today's liberals:

Fifty or so other Republican candidates have also been made targets in a sophisticated “Google bombing” campaign intended to game the search engine’s ranking algorithms. By flooding the Web with references to the candidates and repeatedly cross-linking to specific articles and sites on the Web, it is possible to take advantage of Google’s formula and force those articles to the top of the list of search results.

Liberals by and large cannot win a fair contest of any stripe, be it an argument or an election. So they resort to such tactics to spike the results. They are the cheaters who graduate with hollow degrees; Ted Kennedy is their poster child.

I have long argued that conservative notions tend to win the day primarily because they are disseminated through the free marketplace of ideas. They only lose when that marketplace is obscured with deceit, lies, or the moral failings of the conservative messenger.

Anyone who wins through deceit is still a loser.
