Obama, King of Fools
human events ^ | Ted Nugent

Posted on 11/22/2008 7:23:14 AM PST by hamburglar

It is a defining indicator that the embarrassing, self inflicted dumbing down of America is all but complete when people vote against their own self-interest.

I'll say it: it is obvious that many Americans are not very smart. Quite dumb, actually. To listen to the Sirius radio interview with Obama voters from Harlem mindlessly cheering on Obama as the interviewer attributes McCain's policies to the Democrats is pathetic and an inescapable indicator of the blind leading the blind. Not Godbless or goddam America! God help America.

Trying to explain how our economy works and why lowering taxes is always better for them and their country, than imposing higher taxes is an economic bridge too far for many of the Obama sheep. Unfortunately there is no "See Spot & the Economy Run" book for the hooked on phonics crowd. Many of these numbskulls can't balance a check book or spell "e-c-o-n-o-m-i-c-s" but they sure know who will give them stuff. The lie is impossible.

I couldnt agree more with this article. Obama supporters, the majority of them anyway, must be the dumbest bunch of morons to ever vote. They are a bunch of know nothing, useless idiots incapable of standing on their own two feet. They look to the government to solve their problems. They are children looking for a parent. Their uselessness, weakness and feebleness is offending and loathsome.

Until we shed the dead weight this country has, we will never progress.

We are not going to be able to shed the dead weight.

We are going to have to re-educate about alcoholism, drug addiction, and somehow provide high school education to the vast multitude of young people, who don’t seem to have families which instill values.

A very formidable challenge.

Nugent nails it. It is very clear what the socialists are trying to do. Redesign it in the socialist image. The dumb masses have been needed for this, combined with crisis.

Let no one be surprised at the crap that comes our way after January 21st.

That pretty much sums up the Obama voter.

One told me “she wanted to be part of history”. Good grief.

People cheering on Hitler made “history”, too.

This is right out of the "I kid you not" file... this happened to me just this past Wednesday.

On a somewhat similar note I burned the two flaming libs that I work with right down to their loafers. I have a neat desktop background pic that someone here posted of the “Obama logo” integrated into a Star Wars Death Star. The really loudmouthed lib (black) saw it a couple of times and from his comments clearly did not have a clue what the logo was. About the third time this happened quite a few of the co-workers where right there at my desk so I called him on it. Pointed right at it and asked him if he knew what it was. – silence – So the other flaming lib (white) steps over, looks, and mumbled something about “it looks familiar” indicating he did not know either.

I pulled up http://my.barackobama.com/ and the entire office burst out laughing.

So much for their repeated claims of "knowing the issues."

“McCain had no marketable answer to Obama’s charge because McCain knew that attempting to explain the economy to dumb people is impossible in 30 second commercials.”

Oh wow, I think I said this about a dozen times throughout the campaign. I hated this part of the frenzy of the “historical vote”. McCain couldn’t explain why he was a better candidate to the crowd that can name the American Idol judges, but can’t name the three branches of Federal Government. There is just no way to get through to them.

*sigh*

Maybe we do need a breakdown. To get through to the dunderheads and make them understand how it all works. It’s just sad that those of us who do attempt to manage things in our lives have to suffer right along side of them.

Clinton “lite” 3 vs McCain-Palin and they went for “lite” — not just “fools” but “foolishly ignorant of history.” McCain for all his baggage is not Bush 3. And Palin is the Conservative’s shining light on a hill (in Alaska for the present).

I have 2 things to say to BO voters when I run across them. Instead of asking them “why” they voted for them (it’s always “hope” and “change”) I tell them:

1) Next time you vote, do us all a favor and READ something other than “Cosmo” and “O”! and...

2) There is a HUGE difference between voting for POTUS and voting for “American Idol”! Did you know that?

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am having a field day with all the “idiots” that voted for him because of change! They all hate the Clintons and his choosing Hillary is making them burn with hatred. In four years we hopefully will be done with the Clintons and BO, change is not coming folks. We need non Washington insiders.

The result of spreading the wealth around is spreading unemployment around.

The dumbing of America -- brought to you by the Democratic Party, teachers' unions, and the left wing media.

“Many of these people BELIEVE that Dear Leader is going to somehow give them everything they want...TV’s, new cars, houses....”
Which is pretty much what the Washington Asshats are trying to do with all their “bailouts”. First, fund a group “ACORN”, to pressure banks to make loans to people that will never pay them back, then fund a government slush fund to buy up the loans. When that fails, bail them out.
Then bail out key Wall Street fat cats, prop up a few banks that made bad decisions, and next in line, the Automakers and Big Unions. Next in line is the banks again, because there's a huge “Credit Card” default on the horizon.
To sum it up, the entire mess is caused by people living beyond their means, being propped up by government fools that are financing their hold on power on the backs of business and productive citizens. Who is going to break first?

These voters have granted themselves enough rope to hang themselves. As you said, the sad thing is we will get hung too.

The real sad thing it, these people will not recognize they have hung themselves. Instead, we will get sucked further into socialism. "1984" here we come.

To look forward and be fair, republicans lost voters with college degrees and advanced degrees and really gave people little to vote for, The “lesser of two evils” would not work this time and all the screaming about Ayers and Wright was largely ignored.

Great article - but it is preaching to the choir. As long as Republicans cing to their precious “high moral ground”, it will only get worse.

0bama has lied his way into the White House. Call him out on it - every time he does not meet the impossibly high expections he has set.

When he falters, and he will, the ultimate insult to the Marxists would be “0bama is JLB” (Just Like Bush).

You've just opened my eyes to the true reasoning behind LBJ's war on poverty. By breaking up families and creating single and no parent groups they created generations of people in search of a missing parent that they never had in childhood and now seek out through the government.

Even the fools will understand the mistake they made voting for Obama when they lose their jobs as employers close their businesses, they cannot afford their electric bills, they are standing in long lines for a ration of $4+ gasoline and the prices of everything they buy goes up in price.

But Obama, recognizing how gullible, naive and dumb many of his supporters are, drummed it into them that the economic mess was caused by President Bush and the Republicans and that he is going to give 95% of Americans a tax cut when 40% of Americans don't even pay any federal taxes.

Ironically, the math (95% + 40% = 100%) makes perfect sense to the illiterate Democrat base.

I think in Adams day you could not vote if you didn’t own property and pay taxes. I really don’t think there is hope anymore, because there is a solid base for the Left consisting of the 40+% of the public who pay no income tax. When in power, the Pubbie dopes did nothing to reform this tax system, which amounts to legal theft. It is flat out unconstitutional to have a graduated income tax, because it amounts to denial of equal rights under the law. My income is taxable, a Demonrat zombie voter’s isn’t.
