LGF: 35% of Democrats Are <s>Truthers</s> Retarded
Little Green Footballs ^ | May 05, 2007 | Chuck Johnson

Posted on 05/05/2007 12:23:56 PM PDT by Parody

If you need more evidence than a quick look at any left-wing blog that the Democrat Party has become the party of derangement, denial, conspiracy theories and blind hatred, a new Rasmussen poll shows that 35% of Democrats believe Bush knew about the 9/11 attacks in advance.

Democrats in America are evenly divided on the question of whether George W. Bush knew about the 9/11 terrorist attacks in advance. Thirty-five percent (35%) of Democrats believe he did know, 39% say he did not know, and 26% are not sure.

Republicans reject that view and, by a 7-to-1 margin, say the President did not know in advance about the attacks. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 18% believe the President knew and 57% take the opposite view.

Overall, 22% of all voters believe the President knew about the attacks in advance. A slightly larger number, 29%, believe the CIA knew about the attacks in advance.

(Hat tip: LGF readers.)

We all know that liberalism is a mental disease. Now it seems Democratism is too!

That there is any number of Americans beyond an infinitesimal number would buy into such nonsense is very disturbing. That a measurable number of Republican would believe such an asinine proposition is appalling. Probably mostly Weinerites.

any left-wing blog that the Democrat Party has become the party of derangement, denial, conspiracy theories and blind hatred,

I used to post at DU quite regular as a troll, I actually got to over 7000 posts.

I was trying to drop just a little bit of balance to the 'derangement, denial, conspiracy theories and blind hatred' on that site.

I eventually stopped posting simply because I was being affected in a real negative way by their derangement and venal hatred.

If you visit an insane asylum everyday, it is bound to affect you.

How about just plain stupid. What percentage of any inner city is democrat? Without looking it up I’m guessing 98%.

What I can’t believe is if these insane people really think the president of their own country orchestrated an attack which killed 3000 of their fellow citizens, how can they continue to live here with that kind of belief? But I guess that’s logic. Something in real short supply among the leftist loons.

"Bush did 9/11 to turn America into a police state under the control of the Illuminati!!"


"WRONG! "Bush did 9/11 for the JOOOOOS."


"No!! Bush did it for TEH HALLIBURTON!!!"


The truth.

Add in that the left wing media has done a magnificant job of spreading lies and deceit.

The media is the megaphone for the moonbats.

My personal opinion is this mindset is the tipping point for this country.

To actually believe that 9/11 was a government conspiracy successful planned by Bush, Cheney, simply means that a large percentage of the population is so easily manipulated, they will believe anything.

Critical thinking skills no longer are used and people are presented with well made propaganda anything will be swallowed as truth.

We are now at this point and their is no turning back

“We are now at this point and their is no turning back”

As much as I hate to admit it, I’ve been pondering the same thing for a few years. I really wonder if its possible for our nation to remain as it is for another generation.

I used to look at DU sometimes for a good laugh,.....but right after the tsunamis in Indonesia, they really lost it!Claiming hysterically, that Bush and Karl Rove had caused them on purpose, I started to think ...ok, these people must know that other people are reading this stuff and are just posting this cr-p to put us on.But after talking to some real life libs at work, ‘’THEY REALLY BELEIVE THIS STUFF1 I QUIT!...lol!By the way, not only can Karl Rove ‘’steal’’ elections he can also control the weather !

I never left FR

I initially signed up at DU to see how long I could last before being banned.

After a while I saw there are a few reasonable people who post over there, probably FReepers trolling also.

I thought, I'm here, I'm low profile and never slipped up by using "democrat" instead of "democratic" when talking about the party, I didn't speak ill of moonbat politicians and tried to make a difference.

Like I said, you visit an insane asylum everyday, you either go native or get out.

The DUmp? There are posters there that can control the weather and even teleport, that’s what some claim.

They do have a penchant for conspiracies, the whackier the better, as well as the aforementioned superpowers.

Sadly, so true....... So true.

Their mindless energy, directed and funneled by their prejudices and hatred through their socialist leaders, may eventually dominate.

I like the vartoon summary: It is so accurate it is scary: but the MEDIA is at fault for (1) repeating the false claims of the liberal extremists (2) for treating those claims as serious information.

THAT is the crime of the media: Allowing blatant lies to be repeated and accepting those lies as “valid opinion” = “truth”

They are mostly big supporters of Mao, Stalin and Castro. These guys killed upwards of 100,000,000 in pursuit of their goals. 3000 is child's play.

Your view may be a bit too gloomy. In the 50s and 60s, probably 80% of the country would have believed this cr*pola if the three alphabet networks had told them it was true. So we may actually be improving.

I think you are missing the point, the big three networks in the 50's and 60's would have never let this type of crap come across their airwaves because they would lose credibility with the American public since the public was not that gullible

In the 50's and 60 's Rosie O'Donut would have been escorted out the building after her little moonabt rant about 9/11 and taken to a doctor not only because of her tenuous grip on reality, but maybe they could fix her face a bit too.

Another factor is prolonged use of illegal drugs. This behavior tends to make the user delusional. Even so-called “soft” drugs such as pot do this. A lot of lefties are drug users.

I find it more disturbing that 1 in 8 of the President’s own party believe this calumny - we expect this nonsense from the DUmmies.

Say what you want about the dem's stupidity.

They have nothing on the percentage of Republicans who know they (dems) are deranged, unhinged, irrational, hate this country, do everything they can to bring down our troops morale while they are in harms way, make public statements that encourage the enemy in Iraq to continue attacking, i.e. “the war is lost, exc..” threaten to cut off funding for the military, and surrender in the WOT, along with pushing every sort of Socialist, politically correct, immoral policy they (dems) can think of, try to silence talk radio, want to put left wing liberal judges on the SC, and on and on.

But what do the Republican voters do? They stay home, give up power, and turn the country over to them. Brilliant, just brilliant.
