"The less they know, the less they know how smart I am":
A Riposte by Brian Leiter


(Note: If the name Brian Leiter isn't familiar to you then skip this post. Seriously. Do yourself a favor and just go to the next one. Once the pompous stench of Leiter gets on your clothes it's hard to get out. If you cannot be deterred then read this cram course by Pejmanesque.)

I can't disclose my sources but I was leaked this post before Leiter was able to post it:

"The less they know, the less they know how smart I am" post of the week
Although I thought I had surpassed the facility of being stupefied by the rampant onanistic introspection in the blogosphere, I was nonplussed to discover those aspirants to my intellectual magnitude (as if that possibility could be broached by a PhD in poli sci after all?) would deem to cast aspersions on such a Brobdingnagian intellect as Chomsky.
The potentiality that conservatives are perspicacious enough to diagnosticate their own deficiencies vis a vis their complete and utter disregard for the genius of Chomsky confirms my recurrent predictions that they are imbeciles and it is inexorably accordant to an appraisal of why neo-Straussians (who often labor on Machiavelli when such scholarship in no longer germane to the post-Vidal reality) have difficulty despoiling their bowels without the aid of their materfamilias.


Um, yeah, I'm not sure what it's about either but I think he is saying something about how conservatives can't even take a poop without our mommies. Of course, I'm not as smart as Leiter so it's hard to be sure.

Update: Check out this inspired takedown of Leiter by enthymeme.
