Conservatives are supposed to be more rigid and less sophisticated

Gee, better get back to your research, until it conforms to your expectations.

Conservatives are so-darn unsophiticated, I'm beginning to think Free Republic was created by someone else.

There has never been the slightest indication that the Obamessiah has any kind of a sense of humor. He is the dullest, most one-dimensional pol around. McCain and Palin have both shown flashes of wonderful humor. Biden has a sense of humor but since he is the biggest joke around he needs to learn to laugh at himself!

Why should it be surprising? Conservatives instinctively believe in human imperfection, and see absurdity everywhere. Leftists wish to scrub imperfection and absurdity out of existence. It’s hard to laugh at something you are trying to exterminate.

The rest of us are just pretending to be conservatives to fool nickcarraway into believing that conservatives are sophisticated and intelligent.

I haven’t seen any signs of humor in Obama. In fact, I barely see signs of life in him. He’s robotic and programmed. Most of the time he looks like he needs a good laxative.

Lefties are too thin-skinned to have much humor. They seem to like goofy, non-sensical stuff. But I guess that makes sense in a way. Anything based in logic would be beyond their ability to understand.

If liberals were smart enough to “get it”... they’d be conservatives.

If they can’t understand some humor why would they understand politics. This is why they get so angry at Ann Coulter’s sarcasm. They don’t realize it is humor.

I am astounded. My personal experience shows me that Conservatives are better educated, more accepting of personal differences, more compassionate, and, usually, think much faster on their feet. I am amazed that so called “social scientists” are so far behind the curve! LOL!

I LOVED this article! It was clever and humorous. So, there, dim libtards!

IMO, it’s funny to see all these pinhead psychology professors observing conservatives as if we were natural vegatation.

This guy is just figuring out now that Socialists are humorless prigs? What, does he think the Soviets painted all of Eastern Europe gray because they ran out of the other colors?

I will be the first person in line at my precinct this morning. Now go log off and be the first person in line at your precinct!

Why do you think they majored in snap courses in the first place?? All it did was get them through Liberal Indoctrination on the way to the Master Of Basket Weaving degree.

B and C are not only not funny, but also stupid. They don’t even qualify as jokes.

My 12 year old come up the other day and says,”Barack and Joe Biden are on a cruise ship. The ship sinks. Who is saved?”

America!

If the researcher had ever bothered to follow FR, he would have known that conservatives are full of wit and humor. Instead, he gets his stereotypes from the Leftmedia.

Heard one like that yesterday.

Obama, Pelosi and Reid are riding a donkey. As Obama kicks the donkey on, it veers hard left and picks up speed. The donkey heads for a cliff and jumps right over. Who is saved?
