Political parties (plural, notice, not just the Democrats).  They’re a big part of the problem.

Party members and their careers depend upon the continued favor of the upper echelons.  Which leads us to situations where grossly inappropriate and underqualified people are awarded positions beyond their capacity.

Dawn Johnsen is another useful idiot who is reaping the rewards of a lifelong devotion to misguided Democratic orthodoxy.

Steve King has a blow-by-blow account.  Best of all is her equating pregnancy with slavery.  I know that academia prizes new theories and such like, but this is trying a bit too hard.

She has done something useful, though: offer more proof that stupidity is contagious.  Her brother-in-law, David F. Hamilton, was President Obama’s first, and equally dumb, judicial nominee.
