Are Democrats Smarter Than Republicans?
Canada Free Press ^ | 04/20/17 | Dr. Robert Owens

Posted on 04/20/2017 10:35:41 AM PDT by Sean_Anthony

Why do the Democrats seem to outmaneuver Republicans at every turn?

I have asked myself this question many times. Have recent events changed my mind?

The headline blares, “Nunes steps aside from Russia probe.” Why? As Nunes puts it, “Several leftwing activist groups have filed accusations against me with the Office of Congressional Ethics.

That’s why Republicans are known as The Stupid Party.

But better the Stupid Party than the Evil Party.

It’s not intelligence, exactly.

The left is very goal oriented and fights doggedly for its goals. They’re not embarrassed or reluctant to do or say anything to advance that goal. They will hold two inconsistent positions within minutes of each other and have no problem with their inconsistency or incoherence.

Republicans (and conservative/conservative leaners) tend to be more process-oriented. It’s easy for goal oriented individuals to take advantage of process-oriented individuals. They can muck up the process and keep them from advancing conservative goals.

More cunning, yes. But that’s not a compliment.

No. The left owns the media, and therefore they can attack us, but we can't attack them back.

As a result our people are cowed while their's are emboldened.

That’s like asking if bees or ants are smarter than cockroaches. Bees and ants derive incredible benefit from the ability if not the compulsion to work together at any cost, no matter how insane the end result is. Cockroaches and McCainroaches can never seem to do this. It isn’t smartness, it’s the result achieved from complete uniformity of purpose.

Republicans are reluctant to use governmental power when they are in office since most of them are philosophically opposed to governmental overreach. Democrats have no such reluctance and relish regulations that perpetuate their agenda and their own careers crushing any dissent, even in their own party.

More diabolical, which seems to work some of the time.

Is Pelosi smarter than Ryan? Depends on what you call “smart”. Pelosi’s a street fighter, Ryan’s a Nancy Boy. Pelosi will say and do anything, to anyone, to achieve her Party’s goals. Paul couldn’t lead a pack of starving hyenas into the Serengeti. On the other hand, he can probably balance a checkbook.

Is Pelosi smarter than Ryan?

No, Democrats are not smarter than Republicans.

Democrats are the Borg. 79 Million Democrats are on psychiatric medication for mental illness, making them highly programmable zombies, who mindlessly follow orders from their cell phone texts, to show up at xyz location and make trouble.

Even their Borg queens are doped-up nutcases.

Actually considering how vile the Democrats personally are and how much their policies fail, the fact that they get more than 5% of the vote is amazing.

Of course that doesn’t mean they are smart, it could be that Republican politicians and the American public are stupid.
