22. For most people, cheating implies brains in a way merely winning does not
necessarily. It's a fallacy to think people will vote for a candidate because they think he's smart. Most freepers ought to know that, as intelligence is hardly one of their criteria (or traits, for that matter).

Yes, most cheaters are intelligent (except for many of the ones who get caught, of course). But George Bush didn't cheat in 2000. He had people cheat for him. It takes no intelligence whatever to be a fortunate son of privilege. Other people will be intelligent and cheat for you. The reason Bush has remained so dim and incurious is that he is rewarded beyond anyone's wildest dreams for remaining so.

3. he didn't beat Gore, they just didn't finish counting the votes before
SCOTUS stopped them.

as for Kerry, even chimpie admits the last minute OBL tape swung the election, not to mention the voting irregularities all over the country.

As for him being dim and stupid, everyone on the planet knows that Rove is Bush's Brain and of the many things you can say about Rove, stupid ain't one of them

14. Kerry still won more than likely by 3-7%
So many irregularities, long lines, destroyed registration forms. I could go on.

4. Easy
Rigged voting machines and a healthy supply of idiots registered to vote.

As we can see by the 34% approval rating, lots of the idiots have pulled their heads out of their asses.

I think we should also tell them George Soros is buying all the no-paper-trail voting machines. That oughta give 'em a different view of things.

It's not hard to terrify or convince those who have the reasoning skills of a 6 year old who is mildly retarded.

7. Bush's real problem isn't that he's stupid.
It's that he thinks everyone else is. Courtesy of Molly Ivins.

I would add that Bush has done what every limited person should do, that is, concentrate on the few things that matter to him. That would be his personal power and rewarding his buddies. His few remaining neurons and twenty hour work weeks are dedicated to his reelection.

I could also add that Bush has the same advantage of surprise as pirates. Nobody can believe how evil and vicious he is until it's too late. Courtesy of Kurt Vonnegut.

10. Never underestimate the bad judgment of the voting public
its not about the stupidity of the candidate, its about the gullibility of the masses who vote. Who let their "who would I like to have a beer with?" rationale guide them in electing a World Leader.

15. I say either ...
Well, it proves that it doesn't take brains to get elected or that he didn't really win. Either one sends them into fits.

16. Tell Them They Are Right. Tell Them They Should ReFi The House ASAP . .
Edited on Fri Mar-03-06 10:32 AM by loindelrio
mine that equity, and put it into a big SUV, or better yet, a cruise vacation. They deserve it for being so smart.

Also, savings are for liberal whiners who think the economy is not the 'strongest ever'.

In other words, reinforce their beliefs.


The scythe of natural selection can take many forms.

Basically, Tatertop's approach from above, with a smart-ass twist.

18. Because Kerry had the personality of fresh-cut lumber?
And he may be dim and stupid, but Rove and Cheney aren't.

19. He didn't Gore won and it has been proven. The rest is all voter fraud.
Unfortunately the voter numbers were higher than they should have been because FREEPERS are dim and stupid enough to vote for the criminal.

24. I answer it with another question.
"Why do you praise our soldiers for defending our 'freedoms', while you hide here and willingly forfeit them? Does your cowardice ever keep you up at night?"

A non-sequiter, yes- but there you go.
