[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Democrats are anti-intellectual because they say "read things besides the 300 pages of written work by a dead early modern writer." This is the argument of an 'intellectual?'[/quote]

If you want to save the appearance of not being anti intellectual, at least bother to check what literary period Shakespeare belongs to. Definitely not early modern. You just undermine your own argument better than I could ever do it.

It should be obvious by now that the last few pages showed very clearly the validity of my original thesis that the Democrats have successfuly replaced Rupublicans as the party of anti intellectualism.

Shakespeare wasn't Early Modern?![/quote]

Early modern is being used in two different senses here, and the lack of understanding between the two sides leads to insults being thrown around, of which I highly approve. Early modern is a linguistic period in English in which Shakespeare worked. Early modern is also a literary period corresponding to the turn of the century until approximately the end of WWII.[/quote]

Well, I am technically correct since he didn't say early modern English lol.[/quote]
