IQ hoax by liberal blogs revealed

It seems that a bunch of liberal blogs have been citing a fake chart which showed that all of the high IQ states voted for Gore, while all of the low IQ states voted for Bush. Thankfully, Steve Sailer has revealed the chart to be a hoax, much like a similar hoax from a few years ago which purported that Republican presidents had low IQs.

Steve also had the following, brilliantly worded, observation:

Nothing demonstrates the hypocrisy of Democrats on the topic of IQ than the enthusiasm with which so many leapt aboard this bandwagon as a way to prove they were mentally superior to Republicans, despite, in the near-decade since the publication of The Bell Curve, having constantly denounced IQ tests as meaningless, racist, and evil incarnate.

Way to go Steve.

His "observation" is actually a fallacy, even if the hoax is real (which is doubtful.) And besides, conservatives will always be the kings of hypocrisy.
