I get a lot of crap for saying that some leftists are incapable of rational thought. And now and then, someone hands me an example that you couldn't make up:

Scorsese, a director famed for violent gangster films such as "Goodfellas" and whose latest "Gangs of New York" is competing in Berlin for a "Golden Bear" award, hoped war could be averted.



"It seems to me that any sensible person must see that violence does not change the world and if it does, then only temporarily," he said. "There must be people who remember World War II and the Holocaust who can help us get out of this rut."



I think anyone that can actually say those two sentences consecutively pretty much proves my point.
