Hmm. How does this explain the extreme prejudice of left-wingers, eh? Oh wait . . . (and ain't it funny how they use "studies" from a half-century ago??)

All anyone needs to do is take a trip through DU land and read the posts to see this study is a sham.

The above idiot alone makes the left less intelligent than the right.

What does ‘low intelligence’ mean?

"The paper analyzed large UK studies which compared childhood intelligence with political views in adulthood across more than 15,000 people.

First of all, this was conducted in the UK, not the USA...such may be the case in the UK.

Once colleges and universities spray the liberal joy juice on the students, the "childhood intelligence" is wiped away and they become indocrinated, but educated, idiots.

If liberals are more intelligent, someone must be hiding those they polled in a bunker somewhere, because the liberals and lefties we see and hear daily are certainly not very good examples.

Bottom line: The mere fact that people think that socialism can actually WORK, shows a shallow and damaged intelligence.

You can't fix stupid...but you can give it a degree and it thinks it's smart.

I’d comment, but I lack the brain mass to understand this.

This how it is done: Open with this “and people with low childhood intelligence tend to grow up to have racist and anti-gay views, says a controversial new study.”

Just start by giving this definition to conservatives and the rest of the article writes itself.

Time, Newsweek, the Nation, NYT WP and all leftist publications follow the same formula. State the “fact,” then go from there.

Gosh, Leftists do a study and find that they are correct in their presumptions. What a shocker.

Just another step in the UK towards putting dissenters in “re-education camps.”
For their own good, of course.
The US will be following along presently.

This was out a while ago. They considered people who didn't believe in global warming (which of course as any good liberal knows is as true as anything could possibly be) as STUPID. So, if you are conservative, and sceptical about man-made global warming you are...that's right...of low intelligence. This is the kind of logic these “geniuses” use.

If I ever found myself in a survival situation, I would want all “right-wingers” on my side. “Left-wingers” are idiots and depend too much on others always bailing them out.

Yes that Pol Pot was a real genius, wasn’t he? Stalin. Mao. Lenin. Marx.

Hell, look at the people’s paradise that is Cuba today. Need we more evidence of this study’s validity?

Check out Brock University LOL!

Brock celebrates its place in the biosphere with UN flag raising

Published on January 26 2012 Brock University raised a United Nations flag at its St. Catharines campus today to celebrate its geographic location within the Niagara Escarpment Biosphere Reserve.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated Ontario's Niagara Escarpment a Biosphere Reserve in February 1990.

The ceremony was co-ordinated by Brock’s newly established Environmental Sustainability Research Centre (ESRC), which was created to pursue transdisciplinary research at the University concerning the environment, sustainability and social-ecological resilience.

I'm sure you've all had the displeasure of interacting with a die hard leftist. They are not intelligent people.
