Sorry, Dan, you can’t claim the intellectual high ground when you are calling people names and portraying close-mindedness.
Certainly you are well read but when you just start re-hashing old ad hominem attacks, it shows how feeble your debating position.
Intellectual slavery is when you cannot challenge a theory because of its “righteousness.” That is exactly what you advocate. You claim that your historians are right because they are “the” experts. You claim that only an “expert” is allowed to challenge them. You claim that only “experts” can judge whether Obama knows history. That is weak thinking. It produces weak arguments.
Sorry, emperor dan, you got no clothes and everyone can see it.
