More logic??

In tonight's news we learn that .....
1. Justice Heydon is considered to be of a higher level of intelligence because he doesn't understand how to use a computer to write his own email.
2. That he is of such a higher level of intelligence that he can assess his own behaviour and whether his behaviour would be considered to be biased be a reasonable lay person.
3. He therefore considers that being a speaker at a Liberal Party fundraising event is not a reasonable sign of bias.
4. Therefore if a lay person perceives him to be biased then that lay person is not reasonable.
5. Does it not follow then that Justice Heydon would think that if a person is able to use a computer for email then that person cannot form a reasonable opinion?

What a strange world we live in.
