Dumb as a Rock (Two out of Three Republicans are Really Stupid)
Naples (Florida) Daily News ^ | November 9, 2004 | Bill Linehan

Dumb as a rock

Editor, Naples Daily News:

Ken Homes wrote, "The election is over and the smart people had their way." He added, reflecting the right-wing intolerance and fear of dissent, that "critics of Bush" should move to Bombay.

Now, Ken, you assert stupidity. Thinking people actually back up their assertions.

A poll taken a few weeks before the election revealed that 62 percent of Republicans believe that Iraq was connected to Sept. 11. So we have scientific proof that on Iraq, two out of three Republicans are really stupid. I'm talking dumb as a rock.

Exit polling revealed that a significant number of Republicans, especially right-wing Christians, considered gay marriage to be one of the most important issues. Bush's serial lying, which misled a nation and our troops into war, isn't a moral issue, but who people are sleeping with is. So much for their "family values."

Do you know what terrifies a right-wing homophobe more than Osama bin Laden? A Muslim terrorist who's gay.

I can't prove that Iraq was connected to September 11. But I'll bet Bill Linehan can't prove that it wasn't. In fact, I'll go one better, I know Bill Linehan can't prove Iraq was not connected to September 11. I know that because the rules of logic assert that one cannot prove a negative.

By placing himself in a position of having to back up his assertion that a negative can be proved, Bill Linehan provides scientific proof that on Iraq, one out of one Bill Linehan is really stupid. I'm talking dumb as a rock.

Strawman. Bush never said that Iraq was directly connected to 9/11. He said Iraq was connected to terrorism.

Well, they weren't dumb enough to fall for Kerry's empty nothing, which many of the libs fell for.

Gee.........3 out of 4 Democrats still think Bush stole the election in Florida in 2000, rather than what actually happened - Bush stopped Gore from stealing it.

Does thjat make those Dems stupid?

This is the prevailing prejudice of the left. GWB said in a speech to the nation that we were going after nations who aided and abetted terrorists. Hussein had motive and oppurtnity.

To see something does not mean it is not there.

What proof is there that air exists.

You can't see it, or taste it.

One thing I know for certain - Saddam Hussein is/was a terrorist. He proved that by supporting terrorist actions in Israel. Not even Bill Linehan can refute that.

All Dems, listen up!! Bill has found your winning strategy. Insult those whose support you seek. Ignore what really is behind their beliefs. And finally make false statements to support your point of view. Against such wisdom, is there even any need in even running Republican candidates in the future?

Sounds like Bill gets most of his information from the MSM. And he thinks we're stupid. BTW, Bill the Genius, when you think someone doesn't know the facts, let's say about a connection between two things, the proper description of that condition is "ignorant" not "stupid." That would make you ignorant, Bill, although you may be stupid as well.

Using his own definition. Reality is so sweet.
But having the pervert gene renders all logic irrelevant anyway. He had to get in his most important issue in his universe: His gayness.

Why do we even bother responding to meaningless bleating?

This is a great example of politically-correct bigotry.

You've heard it said: Beauty is only skin deep, and maybe ugly is all the through. But there is a third part: Stupid is FOREVER! Looks like this writer proves the truth of the third variation.

Correct me if I'm wrong - PLEASE - but I don't recall remarks like this coming from conservatives when Clinton got re-elected. Can't these people just get on with their lives? Are they NEVER going to let up?
