Average IQ by state and how they voted in 2000: notice a pattern here? WHAT A CROCK!
American Assembler ^

Posted on 05/06/2004 8:31:03 PM PDT by TheLurkerX

"Though the pattern is a bit striking, this chart was posted to be somewhat amusing. What isn't amusing is the study linked below. A significant percentage of Americans are factually incorrect about very important issues. These include whether we found WMDs in Iraq, Iraq's ties to 9/11, and Iraq's ties to al Queda and terrorism in general.

What's more striking is that of those who hold factual misperceptions of one or more of these issues, a vast majority support Bush.

Bush's support is directly proportional to misperceptions of facts. This should give even the most allegiant Bush supporter pause."

It's like being rich and asking how much something cost. If you have to ask, then you wouldn't understand the answer.

You're probably right, mine being negative and all that.

this is a good post in that it serves to validate liberal elitism and their perspective that an Ivy League education or lack thereof defines ones rights, opportunities, and priveleges in the world.

It's just amazing to me the amount of amazingly brazen and odiferous crap that they'll churn out to confuse the masses into voting on false pretenses, and then claim it's the right that uses these tactics. If most people didn't believe the liberal media and take everything they read in the rags at face value, the Dems wouldn't have a hope in hell of winning anything.

I think they're finally starting to realize that their befuddled base of old style democrats are dying off or are starting to get wise to their tricks, and since the interest groups aren't enough to get them elected, now they're pandering to immigrants to replace them. Their idea of giving illegals a vote, or giving them permanent status in the millions is sickening. Pandering to lawbreakers en masse for the sake of winning elections should be treated as treasonous behavior in my book.

Well .. if they're joking .. where did they get the stats?

If they're saying that those of us who believe the President (in 3 major areas) and probably will vote for him, are those who watch Fox ..?? Then the numbers say it's going to be a blowout in November for Bush .. 70-30.

Am I reading this all wrong .. or have these people just proven a blowout ..??

And .. if they have .. where are the polls getting the 45-45 numbers ..?? Very curious.

Totally bogus numbers. My liberal friends are horrified that there might be some type of literacy test or IQ test when I suggest it--to a person, they exclaim, "but Democrats would NEVER win an election."

If the liberals are so smart, let's change the election laws: weight each vote according to IQ, say 1% of one vote for each IQ point. A person with a 75 IQ gets 0.75 votes, a person with 125 IQ gets 1.25 votes, and the average, by definition, would be the person with 100 IQ and 1.0 votes. That would smoke out blowhards like this one.

Would Wile E. Coyote (supra-genius) vote for Bush or Kerry?

I would guess that he is, for numerous reasons, a straight ticket Republican based on self-interest and personal philosophy.

Coyote is admirable for his perseverance, but an embarrassment because he is his own worse enemy.

I love how the i.q. thing always comes up. I know a Dimwit who thinks his anti-Bush, moping "I can't a girlfriend" type of comic is pure genius. He says that everyone who likes his comic has a large i.q. to try and prove it. He never mentions those who have large i.q.s and think his comic is just not funny.

What a joke this is.

If you look at the election map-you see that the democrats concentrate on the large cities, easier to dupe the undereducated populations there (liberals depend on the dumded down plantation 'slaves' of the liberal homestead, why, which is why the urban populations remain stuck in crappy schools and why the liberals hate the voucher program and all attempts at accountability in education).

And because the large cities carry weight on the electoral vote per state, consisting of dense populations (where voter fraud is so easy to secure), because these populations are generally undereducated (with the more urban, wealthy, educated choosing to live outside the city arena for the most part), that is where the democrats campaign the hardest.

And it is WHY al gore lost the last election.

If he had NOT IGNORED HIS HOME STATE of TENNESSEE, HE WOULD HAVE WON.

The only liberals I know are either professors, colleagues who have never matured (stuck in 60's mentality), under-educated hollywood actors who have a ready made platform and think they are hep and the poorer, undereducated populations who believe the liberal line, the line that has kept them down since forever.
