DUmmy lib2DaBone is puzzled by senior citizens voting Republican. Shouldn't they always vote socialist, to pump up the public tit?

Why do Seniors vote Republican? When their whole welfare is based on SS and Medicare? I dont' get it? I know I am a slow learner... but the voters in FLroida put Rick Scott in the Governors seat.. a man who stole $1.9 billion from medicare.
The Seniors also elected an overwhleming Republican majority in the house... a majority that will certainly cut all their social security benefits and madicare.
I just don't get it?

DUmmy lib2DaBone hit the nail on the head. It's because he is a very slow learner.

2. Because Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck comes along
and tells them that librul hippies are going to get everyone stoned, gay married and bring them death panels.
I swear, DUmmy Cleita and the vicious old crone DUmmy warpy must be fraternal twins.

4. Why do Blacks vote Republican? Why do gays vote Republican?
Why do poor people who have little to nothing vote Republican? There are more to the list than just seniors.
Well, yeah, one black out of about 15 votes Republican, and maybe one out of 100 homo gayboys votes Republican. Your point?

5. Psychologically, they tend to be conservative...
and the older they get, the more likely they are to go back to the way people thought when they were kids. The brain does deteriorate in its sharpness over time. That is a medical fact. They go where they are comfortable.
People vote Republican due to senility.

6. They're GENERALLY bitter & hateful people who believe in Reagan and bootstraps groupthink. DU and Democratic seniors excluded, of course, which is why I said GENERALLY.
But it's really amazing how many were swayed by Nixon's and Reagan's bullshit. I also blame Fox "News" for their USA USA USA DEMOCRATS AH THUH DEVUL! message, which they seem to lap up like cream corn.

7. They have bought into the fear and propaganda.
Also, churches have influence on them as well as senior care centers and the like carrying Fox "news".

Bullshit. According to CNNMoney.com the average net worth of a person 65+ is $232,000
