Do You Suppose It's Genetic?

A fairly appalling post from Andrew Sullivan, on race and intelligence. He just can't seem to let that one go -- I'm not going to accuse Sullivan of racism, but without that motivation, I just can't figure out what his fascination with this fantasy is. His comment was the really disgusting part:
