They hate smart people because they know smart people can figure them out and won't fall for their bullshit. I believe it was kkkarl rove who once said "too much education is not necessarily a good thing." That was because the better educated one is, the more likely one is to be liberal in his/her thinking. It's BROADENING the mind that they fear. They like minds nice and narrow, and closed, and pinched.
