Are American Voters as Stupid as Democrats Bank On?
New Media Journal ^ | June 12, 2008 | JB Williams

Posted on 06/12/2008 12:07:07 PM PDT by PlainOleAmerican

I’d love to be able to say that American voters are far too intelligent to ever fall for the socialist drivel currently peddled by the New Democrat Party, aka - the Democratic Socialists of America. But that would be a lie...

Sadly, many Americans are indeed stupid enough to overlook the reality that “universal health care” and “socialized medicine” is the same thing. They are indeed stupid enough to support socialism over economic freedom, a greater communal good over individual liberty, a nanny state over self-governance and even a completely unqualified half-black 100% Marxist for president over a man who paid the ultimate price for American freedom in a Vietnam prison camp.

Just how stupid is the average American voter today?

(Then the writer lists just how stupid the average voter really is, and provides some VERY interesting information!)

“If this is true, and I'm just asking, posing himself as more black than he is and saying he would be the “first black president” is fraudulent and a lie.”

As you can see even on this thread, this particular fraudulent Obama claim is off-limits. Obama can play black for political gain if he wants. But if you call him on it, you're a racist.

Sadly they are.

They don't have time or care to research what the Drive Bys tell them about our situation. Take for example the gas price situation and the supply and demand issues. The public blames the GOP because they've been tied to the hips with the oil companies. These same oil companies spent a week in front of congress telling them they need to open up our reserves and make refinery building easier to get done. Who is the party holding this up? The big number of them are Democrats. But who gets the blame?

Part of this is our fault because we don't have anybody on our side they articulates the problems the Rats have created. The GOP is the stupid party.

“The GOP is the stupid party.”

I must admit, Democratic Socialists are kicking ass in the smarter party arena at present... Conservatives had better become as smart as they think they are, real soon...

Are you really this myopic and self-loathing? - Do you have Alzheimer's? Tell me again what’s “racist” about stating the fact that another “black candidate” is not actually black? - I never said a word about racist, DO NOT PUT WORDS IN MY POST I DID NOT WRITE Amazing? The author is a racist? - Please indicate where I said anyone is a racist? I think you are mental These are the conservative values you are promoting? You, I believe are certifiable, I never said anything of the sort. I suggest you seek help.

Just posted this from Williams... It’s a good call to ACTION on today’s SCOTUS Gitmo ruling.

You are so right! I've noticed on many threads that some freepers get very edgy if we post anything about Obama's race or any peripheral references even though we're posting legitimate political points which are not at all "racist".

If some jerk posts something that's arrantly racist, there's the "abuse" button to click and the perp is gone....poof!

Just think, we FR'ers probably will have to put up with some unreal, ignorant, exaggerated political-sensitivities in the Obama race-department until the election.

Furthermore, Hussein is not even "black" in the accepted definition of the word as he is fraudulently leading the masses to believe. This observation is unfortunately will probably bring about some chiding and scolding from a few who look for things that they interpret in their own minds as "racist".

However, as a gentle lady from the South would say, "Ah'm just not going to pay them no nevermind, sugah."

Certifiable, maybe...

But mostly just clicked on the wrong post and answered the wrong Freeper.

I was wrong, forgive me.

Meanwhile, I’ll call my therapist and request more drugs.

Errata.....a couple of extra words in the fifth paragraph above, but I'm sure you get the drift.

Yes we are stupid. We don’t even understand why gas prices are so high.

“What does “half-black” have to do with the point he’s making?

I’m not one to see racism around every corner but that phrase being thrown in there has no revelance and smacks of it.”

Interesting. Black would have been OK. White? Nope. Why not? Is he not at least as much white as black? Half-black? Nope. Half-white, maybe? Accurately describing someone’s ethnic makeup accurately is racist? I don’t like where this is going.

It might have been superfluous but it was not racist. No offense but if that is your idea of racism, I don’t believe you have ever seen real racism.

Racism isn’t a joke at someone’s expense or cultural barbs folks throw at each other, as modern PC would love it to be. Adherents to it can control your speech or demonise you with the RACIST!!! label for non-PC, though factual, statements as you did this writer.

Don’t let yourself get caught up in that.

“I don’t think American voters are as stupid as this writer insinuates. A recent poll showed that less than 20% of Americans believe that high gas prices are the oil companies’ fault.”

Count my Mom in that 20% She voted for Bush but since oil has skyrocketed she blames him since his family was in the oil business. “He’s in it with his oil company buddies”. A college education in accounting in finance, too. *SIGH*

So, you expect American voters to remove the 89% of congress they disagree with and replace them with conservatives this fall?

Hope you’re right!

No, I don't expect it.
