Over the years, this blog has had a lot of fun cataloging statements that reveal the exposed inner id of Democrats.

We’ve brought you gems like:

• “When you guys win, you get to keep your money.  When we win, we take your money!” – Minnesota DFL Senator Cy Thao
• “It’s silly to think people can spend their own money better than government can” – Minnesota DFL Senate Majority Leader Larry Pogemiller
• “I think a lot of us think the voters made a mistake in 2010” – former Eagan DFL mayor James Carlson

To that, I need to add this gem by retiring New York congressman Spencer Ackerman:

The public is to blame as well. I think the people have gotten dumber.

If the GOP doesn’t print this – and the three above – on T-shirts this fall, it has only itself to blame.  As usual.

And while the people may or may not be dumber, it’s for sure that Democrat senators’ IQs certainly are under the speed limit:

I don’t know that I would’ve said that out loud pre-my announcement that I was going to be leaving. [Laughter] But I think that’s true. I mean everything has changed. The media has changed. We now give broadcast licenses to philosophies instead of people.

We give ’em to neither. Ideology is a programming option, like “Top Forty”. Unlike Top Forty – or Spencer Ackerman – conservative talk is successful.
