How dumb do you have to be to vote for a Republican?
   
Yeah, I know. Rich people vote for Republicans because it serves their interests. But what about the rest of the idiots who spend their lives getting screwed by Republicans, but vote for them anyway? (Not to mention Dems who vote for blue dogs.)

Can anyone explain why people who have been getting screwed their entire lives continue to vote for those who are screwing them? I know the Republicans play to ignorance and bigotry, but if you've been kicked in the teeth enough, you think you'd “get it” at some point.

Whether they vote for Republicans because of some blind, fanatical religious beliefs, or because they hate black, brown and yellow people, what we’re really talking about here are human beings who lack the ability to think or reason. We’re talking about people who don’t understand what’s in their own best interest. We’re talking about people who are screwing all the rest of us through their incredible stupidity.

It never ceases to amaze me that con artists like Limbaugh, Beck, Palin, and their ilk can keep selling the same snake oil to the suckers over and over again. Not to mention those who buy into creatures like Newt Gingrich who have just a little more polish on the bullshit they’re peddling.

So what can we do about it? At present, not much. Perhaps future generations can be better educated, but given the money being withheld from schools today, I don’t hold out much hope.

About all I can say is, “Welcome to the new "third-world country" called America.

Socialism is not in my best interest. I value freedom and the ability to work and take care of my own needs. Nothing the democrats have ever done have made me more free or helped me to be able to provide for myself.

Dummies just can not comprehend that when one works for a living and takes care of their own needs that not only do we get more we get a sense of pride that our hard work pays off. Sitting around waiting for Obama to peel bills from his stash would make me feel like a parasite.


I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Our best interests are not served by massive government spending, borrowing and taxing.  How stupid do Democrats have to be to believe there are enough "rich" people to support them and the whole government.   :thatsright:

Hey DUmbfuk...my best interests are in an economy that is free to grow,not one controlled by the government.

Yes there will be "winners and losers" but in your ideal there are only losers.
Oh wait,I forgot,in your stupidity you think that everything else would stay the same if only the government would see to it that you have a life without want.

Guess what fool,you will always be at the bottom of the dung heap because that is all you are worth and all you set your sights on.

The biggest failure of lib thinking is the idea that success is this zero-sum game--there's only x amount of success; if you are a success, somebody has to suffer. If you believe this, it stands to reason that you'd want to make sure that things are spread evenly. The flaw in this thinking, of course , is that reality proves exactly the opposite.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

Just read a phrase in Atlas Shrugged;

"An honest man is one who knows he can't consumer more than he produces"

That about summed this up for me.

Is this a test?
OK I'll give it a shot.

Take the IQ of the smartest democrat, double it, add 20 and that's how stupid you have to be to vote Republican.

How dumb do you have to be to vote for a Democrat? How many times do you have to get screwed by the government to realize they don't have ANYONE'S best interest at heart, that you're just a number among millions and millions and millions of others. Thread after thread they complain about being denied workman's comp, unemployment benefits, social security, disability payments. Yet they still want to suck at the government teat, to have an anonymous bureaucrat be mommy & daddy. Someone who will never see them as human, who don't have to care because they have union jobs and can be lazy and incompetent and not be fired. They would rather depend on them than their own selves.

Whether they do it because they lack compassion or they hate black or brown people and don't care whether they spend their lives living on the government plantation with no hope, no pride, generations of dependence, inadequate housing, barely enough money to survive, gangs taking over their neighborhoods so they can barely leave their apartments. Never given any training or a decent education that might allow them to raise them from the grip of extreme poverty and join the rest of the human race who have better lives because they no how to take care of themselves.

It amazes me how they can continue to listen to the angry and resentful voices of Mike Malloy, Keef, and Maddow. Voices who continue to spew anger and hate even when their side is in power. They continue to think Obama is going to make their lives better because he reads pretty words off a teleprompter, as if they don't hear the incompetence, the "uhs" when he doesn't have his crutch. All the promises broken...Gitmo, Iraq, Afghanistan, a health care bill that won't provide free health care to even half those who have none.

We'll never be able to change them. They see Europe moving away from the failed experiment of socialism, riots in Greece because the government has run out of other people's money and can no longer afford their dependents. A massive government debt that their children and grandchildren will be slaves to, but will never receive benefits from because the country will won't be able to sustain massive handouts. It doesn't work in countries with much fewer people and yet they think it will work in a country as large as ours. Their ignorance and selfishness prevent them from seeing if they continue along this path we will end up a third world country, one from which their children probably won't be able to dig themselves out of. I guess when you think only of yourself you can't see the consequences of your actions and how it will affect others, even those you love.
