Slag: I am impressed by the self-proclaimed intelligencia's propensity to designate their particular political view and bias the "correct" one and any other point of view "stoopid". Any logicians out their care to take a stab at which informal fallacy is being committed by said elitests?

It rather depends on whether they're right or not. What's the fallacy of determining somebody's wrong before even considering their arguments? Ah yes, poisoning the well.

Ed T: If Americans aren't stoopid, how do you explain "Toys 'R Us", a Kids toy company whose name I can't even accurately type on my keyboard?

Look, your inability to type accurately doesn't say anything about how stupid Americans are. :P But seriously it's just a silly advertising prank. Since when do we expect genius from advertising? Advertisers win Clios, not Nobels.
