Biden: Dems think you’re stupid

All that Greasy Joe Plagiarism is doing here is telling us what we already knew: Democrats think they’re smart and that the American people are stupid.  From the Andrew Cline:

Sen. Joe Biden said in an interview at the New Hampshire Union Leader this afternoon that too many Democrats, including the frontrunners for the presidential nomination, do not have faith in the American people.

“We’ve got to trust the American people more,” Biden said.

“I think they’ve really lost faith in the American people in terms of leveling with them,” he said of his leading rivals.

When he asks groups of Democrats if they think the American people are stupid because they elected George W. Bush twice, most respond that, yes, they do, he said. He said he thinks that attitude is a real problem for the Democrats, who fail to understand how smart and pragmatic the American people really are. 

Sure, Biden is being a little bit disingenuous, since he has that same air of elitism that he accuses his liberal brethren of having.  However, he is still correct in his inference that liberals think Americans are stupid.  I guess that’s why they support Big Government the way they do: to keep us idjuts from hurting ourselves.
