Bloomberg: rebelled against the intelligence, but order is about to be restored

“A few years ago there was a revolution against the intelligentsia,” Bloomberg told CBS’ Scott Pelley. “People said, ‘you know, those people, particularly on the coasts, are trying to tell us what to do.’ They wanted a change. That explains Donald Trump. Now, people seem to have changed. This cycle, people want stability.”

You know. “the good old days”. To be fair, not a single one of Bloomberg’s rivals thinks differently.

Yesterday EOS sent along this link to Legal Insurrection’s tribute to Andrew Britebart, who died March 1, 2012. It includes his famous quote about challenging these intellectuals:

“Walk toward the fire. Don’t worry about what they call you. All those things are said against you because they want to stop you in your tracks. But if you keep going, you’re sending a message to people who are rooting for you, who are agreeing with you. The message is that they can do it, too.”

And the tribute includes an interview with Breitbart conducted by Glenn Reynolds and the Instawife at the height of the Tea Party Rebellion in 2010. Prescient thoughts on what was in store for the intellectual rules in Europe and Britain, as well as here. Te battle rages on.

We already knew that.

To paraphrase Mencken, Democracy is the theory of government where the elite know what the common man needs and give it to him, good and hard.
