True intellectuals

Democrats tend to consider themselves more thoughtful and, truth to tell, more intelligent than Republicans.

But consider: It is said that the mark of a true intellectual is someone who can keep opposing thoughts in his or her head at the same time. And Republicans, as we know, believe that we must not tax the rich at the same time that they think that diminishing the deficit immediately has to be our first priority.

If you heard "Wait Wait" this week, one of the guests said that Obama and the Republicans were going to compromise over whether he is Christian or Muslim by agreeing that he's Jewish.
