Maybe we should stop calling our opponents "stupid" since they are "kicking our butts
all over the lot".
The GOP voter sees the person on the ballot as just an avatar for RNC central.
They have tied up Congress, control over 30 states that is far from stupid.

3. The republicans bought it
Bought the best government money can buy.
They own the media, the voting machines and the hate machines.
They appeal to the stupid, the lazy and the ass-kissers who are afraid to think for themselves and those are the majority of the country. Half of them vote and the other half don't.
The 1/3 who always vote for the Democratic Party are without a doubt the smarter third. They can not be bought.

2. But they are stupid, that is one of the key points. The people that they vote for
control the mass media and huge amounts of Corporate America. A main point, is keeping them stupid or uninformed if you want to use a nicer term. The GOP owns a huge amount of this country, they've been buying it since the Reagan Era. For sure, a lot of them are very very smart - cruel, vindictive and petty too.
If we ever want to change the status quo, we have to take back control over Congress.
They are stupid and the GOP wants to keep them that way and expand the number of uniformed individuals. It totally works to their advantage as well as to Corporate Americas advantage and you know this

4. It is pretty simple, the party is led by psychopaths leading the ignorant. nt

16. Okay. Voters ARE stupid but the Republicans have even made Democratic candidates turn on
Obama. That was the best trick of all!
Unfortunately, these same Dem candidates are going to have their asses handed to them for just that reason

19. Their only focus is winning and control (mainly for the top 10%)... therefore
they are unable to enact good legislation and ideas for the rest of us (provably). That abusive/obsessive focus is screwing the rest of us over year after year. And while it works for the most part, it is still very damaging as a whole.
Democrats focus on the 90% and legislation that benefits the majority and have to step in and enact just enough legislation as they can to mitigate the Republicans constant damage. That kind of governing is a crapshoot for everyone except that upper echelon that the Republicans are in bed with.
Democrats focus and task is much larger than the Republicans, covering the welfare of 90% of 300 million people and which mostly does effect the upper 10% positively.
They (R's) conserve their energy/ideas to zero in on winning and everything that can get them there. Greased palms and people in position are making it work for them but again, their lack of focus once in position or in session shows they don't know how to govern at all.
Many voters hear what they want or the "bravado" and think, yeah, that's my guy/gal. When that guy/gal gets in they don't bother to find out how incompetent they really are. And even if the facts are presented, constituents tend to ignore it or miss it completely.
We (D's) need a political win-machine at every level/ a branch that allows our elected officials to perform at their highest levels up on the hill.
We have pieces of it.... but it isn't fully up to par yet...or so it seems.

25. Pat Buchanan had it right.
Honestly, he did.
There is a cultural war in the US. Always has been, always will be. Right now, we are on the losing end election wise, winning side culturally wise.
It is Roundheads v Cavaliers, and we are Roundheads. Roundheads founded Harvard and settled in the northeast. Cavaliers moved to the south, and brought the scots-irish with them .
We had a civil war and we will have another one within the next 40 years. It will take an assassination of a President plus a changing of the filibuster rule. (There is a reason why changing the filibuster rule drives Senators nuts (.
Cromwell was a roundhead. Charlies I and II were cavaliers, btw. English Civil War teams. Not too sure what the angry roundhead was trying to say.

27. They aren't "kicking" anything. They game the system. They stop people from voting. They lie.
They cheat. They bribe. They steal. They smear. They insinuate. They use the dirtiest tactics known to humankind.
That's pretty stupid behavior, because it involves the subversion of democracy.
They couldn't win an honest contest in most districts. They don't know how to be honest.
No no no. I want to go back to the whole ECW thingy.
England's many Puritans and Presbyterians were almost invariably Roundhead supporters, as were many smaller religious groups such as the Independents. However many Roundheads were Church of England, as were many Cavaliers.
During the war and for a time afterwards Roundhead was a term of derision[3]—in the New Model Army it was a punishable offence to call a fellow soldier a Roundhead.[4] This contrasted with the term Cavalier to describe supporters of the Royalist cause. Cavalier also started out as a pejorative term—the first proponents used it to compare members of the Royalist party with Spanish Caballeros who had abused Dutch Protestants during the reign of Elizabeth I—but unlike Roundhead, Cavalier was embraced by those who were the target of the epithet and used by them to describe themselves.
Roundhead remained in use to describe those with republican tendencies up until the Exclusion Bill crisis of 1678–1681; the term was then superseded by Whig, initially another term with pejorative connotations. Likewise during the Exclusion Bill crisis, the term Cavalier was replaced with Tory, a term introduced by the opponents of the Tories, and also initially a pejorative term.
Thus, a roundhead was and is a conservative republican... as is the case most of the time, the DUmpmonkie was wrong.
Here endeth the lesson.

Didn't the evvvvill rethuglicans also win the college educated vote in 2012?

People that steeped in delusion will never be able to formulate a proper response to an opponent's actions.
All we need to do is take the initiative.

You pretty much summed up what I was going to post. The DUmmies are so full of denial, projection & delusion. And it hopefully will keep building to a beautiful boiling over on Tuesday.

Debbie Whatshername Shultz looks like she had a do-over a couple of weeks ago. She looked almost normal at first glance.
She was back to coating her head with tubs of mayonnaise by the end of the week.

As long as liberals continue to believe themselves to be intelligent, and especially more intelligent than conservatives, they'll never be able to humble themselves to be in a position to see and recognize truth. They simply must put aside their arrogance if they ever hope to progress.
You know, liberals, humility goes a long way. And all of you need to desperately jump into a pool of it and swim for a few centuries.

You know, it would be a lot better for the rest of us if they just jumped in a pool and didn't swim.

My take USA... the dummies, and by extension liberals in general, believe that conservatives are brainwashed by conservative media for one simple reason:
It is because they are brainwashed by the liberal media.
The dummies/liberals literally cannot think for themselves. If they could, they would not need the government's help to live or run to the dump whenever they have a leaky faucet. :cheersmate:

Ol' fish-lips makes an appearance in that thread, I thought that she had sworn never to return to the DUmp.

35. Voting Republican ...
... is a matter of the stupid voting to elect the insane.
In a world where the stupid didn't vote, Michele Bachman's highest achievement would have been Top Avon Saleswoman in her state, Ted Cruz's would have been owning the four most successful used car lots in the mid-west, Rick Santorum's would have been being named "Catholic Layman of the Year" in his diocese, and Sarah Palin's would have been being voted "Waitress of the Month" four months running in an Alaskan truck-stop diner.
Thanks to the stupid, these people were actually elected to positions of political power instead.

That's it, exactly.
To give a minor example, that's why BainsBane couldn't get along while she was here.

Back @ CU, someone had a great cartoon of a drunken woman drawn on a cocktail napkin that would show up in every Nance Greggs thread. It looked just like her but illustrated the drunken haze that her posts invariably conjured.
No one could post that kind of garbage sober.

If the DUmmy's opponents are stooopid, and they're still kicking the DUmmies' asses like Steven Seagal in a room full of Croatian stuntmen, what does that say about the DUmmies?
Hmmm, lurking DUmmies? How do you like being worse than stupid?

Shit, is she still alive?
I figured cirrhosis of the liver would have killed her by now.
Either that or the DTs.

I don't remember that. Was it a "Daveman" creation, or a cartoon pulled off Google images or the like?

It was probably a Google image. It was eerily accurate.

They own the media,
I need to track this little asshole down. It owes me a new keyboard. I was able to get the coffee off the monitor.
Now, I have to use this USB wireless one that sucks. :rant:

By and large - and yes, they are brainwashed - they refuse to see it. Absolutely, there are those so bereft of adult thinking that they lose Jeopardy questions to a bag of hammers :stoner: and will repeat long debunked nonsense, but the ones that can still function, refuse the evidence of their senses. Like that "they own the media" derpitude. Shattering, really.
The dummies/liberals literally cannot think for themselves.
The TV said so.... The TV said so.... The TV said so....
