The Sharpest Tool in the Shed...

The old saying is, "he's not the sharpest tool in the shed". We know what it means, but how about this...

If the sharpest tool in the shed never hits the pavement and it sits in the shed, never doing hard work...is it worth more than the dull edged tool that gets used in overtime, because it gets the job done in spite of short comings? I liken that to the intellectuals and elitists that make policy and run this country in between their vacations in Martha's Vineyard and their special interest group parties.

If your not willing to get dirty, work hard in the trenches and eat the same food as the troops once in a while...well you're not a leader...you're a dictator and your supporters will eventually grow to resent you and your arrogance will soon become your Achilles' heel.
