Well, don't you know their baseline is that they hate the US as it was/is, so the further you get from the US, the better?

Think about it in match-ups. If they had to pick between US and Europe, it would be Europe. Between Europe and Africa, their choice would be Africa. Etc, etc, etc. That's ALWAYS how it goes w/these self-hating American flagellators, aka Communists.

Europe may have dealt with similar religious issues, but it wasn't founded by a mass of Puritans. A country founded by the Protestant ethic run amok, plus a strong sense of Rugged Individualism grown by a frontier (cowboy) fantasy, in my opinion, gets us where we are today.

America wasn’t founded by Puritans, Massachusetts Colony was. Virginia for one was founded by entrepreneurs, and we’re still pretty much Conservative – except for the DC area.

I remember one poll indicating a large number of Bush supporters who held views the opposite of his. They would have been Kerry supporters if they had understood which candidate they actually agreed with.

I disagreed with many of Mr. Bush’s views – but there is no way I would vote for a self aggrandizing, lying, backstabbing, seditious traitor. I do believe in Patriotism.

Due to this, the working class Freeper has a sort of political and economic version of Stockholm Syndrome in which they identify more with their captors than the very people who are seeking a bette life for them.

WOW!!!! I didn’t vote for “gimme gimme gimme”!

16. The Right Wing Owns The News & the Fundies Own the Voting Machinez And once they push through the DRAFT they'll own our bodies too.

SeeBS, NBC and ABC are “right wing”?
Aren’t the only people pushing for the draft reinstatement democrats?

Enough. I can’t read anymore.

Unfortunately, the average, Freeper-type conservative has been lulled into believing that hard work, dedication, and competence will result in success.

THIS SAYS IT ALL!


I agree! That's the most preposterous thing I've ever read!

I'm so stupid that it even worked for me. If I had been smarter I could be a failure.

Same here. Come to think of it, this assrabbit is obviously unemployed. He/She/It shouldn't bite the hand that feeds them by calling us "stupid".

Well, you know, that could be the crux of this whole Democrat thing.

Too many plain idiots, and too many geniuses - who have no common sense (we see that alot, don't we? Not always, of course....).

If you're a really smart genius, it may be you have no horse sense and can't function properly to succeed.

Tell that to the DUmmies. They can feel insulted and complimented at the same time.

Let's not miss this subtle gem, guys....

"Most Americans are just so uninterested that they go for whoever tells most, nicest, and most convincing lies. That is why the Republicans have been so successful"

IOW, you acknowledge your guy is lying too! I guess Kerry's lies just weren't as convincing.

My IQ is over 150. But I could tie my shoes by the time I could walk. Yep at the tender age of 16 I could tie my shoes.

Hence do I say "not always". ;-)

My fiance is 153 (supposedly, and it is believable), and I'm 140. But we have pretty good common sense.

We know things such as it's not a sin to own property, you should be paid for doing work and not paid for doing nothing, nor is it some1 else's fault when a woman gets burnt from spilling coffee on herself.

It is totally beyond my comprehension how these miserable failures fault success as being stupid. And they won't try to succeed because it can't be done.

My motto is, "If you think you can't do it, you're right!"

It explains a lot of anger, too. It's hard, frustrating work trying to shoehorn
daily facts into your warped, worldview template. How exhausting!

Well said.

The tinfoil-hat crowd over on DU indeed believes that the mainstream media is conservative. Their logic goes something like this: Corporations are bad and evil. Corporations own the main media outlets. Therefore, the mainstream media is bad and evil. And since conservatism = evil too, then the media is conservative. Simple?

I notice you've posted comments to specific items in the DU thread as you reach them. Entertaining, isn't it? I like lurking on DU because just when I scroll down a thread and think I've really read the penultimate loo-loo post, another one comes along and surpasses the prior one. It definitely is the gift that keeps on giving!

Here's some more DU "love and tolerance" I tripped across on a different thread:

I tell people who voted for Bush...

Especially the sorry f***ing pinheaded festering pushole loser assclown fascist anal seepages who did so twice: "**** you, you voted for Bush, you have blood on your hands. You should be ashamed. And **** you."

Or if I ain't sayin' it out loud - goddamn workplace rules and the need for food and shelter - I am thinkin' it. It's on the tip of my sweet tongue. Blood on your hands, ****faces!

As HST [the late Hunter S. Thompson] said, "I piss down the throats of these nazis." F***, I am drinking extra water, beer, whiskey, and coffee just so I can keep a steady supply stream ready.

What do you tell people who voted for the coke-addled corporate boytoy? You should screw diplomacy in the ass, and go for the jugular. The Good Doctor would approve. He didn't die in vain.

5. I tell them they are baby killers

the troops aren't pulling the trigger. the people who voted for Bush are pulling the triggers.

14. I don't talk to them, period.

If I KNOW they voted for him.

18. A sound policy, to be sure

I don't know many, and I don't look for them. And as I said, the few at my workplace are protected by those weak-ass rules from my wrath... But if anyone out there should ever confront me because they want to sneer at me for being a "liberal Democrat", I am going to slay them on the spot. They will regret their choice to engage me in a political tete-a-tete. I have enjoyed the results so far. The look of stunned stupidity and impotent snide arrogance combined with clueless frustration is a delight to be savored. Don't deny yourself the pleasure.
