Edited on Wed Sep-10-08 06:58 PM by Husb2Sparkly
Only morons would vote for people like:
Colburn
Cheney
Westmoreland
Pence
Hutcheson
Sessions
Hastert
Boehner
DeLay
Palin
Bush
Bush
Bush
Bush
Crist
Cornyn
Pawlenty
Putnam
McHenry
Blackburn
King
Issa
Schwarzenegger
Perry
Bartlett
Stevens
Chambliss
Bono
Diaz Diaz - Balart Balart
Fosella
Riley
Jindall
Barbour
Hayworth
Wilson
Hunter
..... and the list goes one and on and on ........
Without hyperbole, I simply cannot fathom that the country in which I grew up, the country I served, the country that gave us King and Kennedy and Kennedy and Kennedy, Roosevelt and Lincoln (yes, I know), and Carter, the country that lent a hand where needed, has devolved to this. A country that has such a lack of critical thinkers and honest voters that people like those from the list above get voted into office.

Diebold it is, was, and shall forever be. Be, as long as we look the other way and continue to think it can't/didn't/won't happen.
"Land of the free and home of the brave" has a new meaning.... it now means we are free to ignore reality and go on pretending as if our votes have never been stolen by diebold. Even here, on DU, there are some who are living large in this newly described Land of the free.....

10. People in this country are capable of voting intelligently. |
|
So, I wouldn't call them Morons, they just don't give a shit. At least they don't give a shit enough to learn anything more than the most superficial things that are shown on the T.V. news for 10 minutes per day.

11. I see Perry on your list. If it makes you feel better... |
|
I don't think that he got anywhere CLOSE to 50% of the vote, but as I recall, the democratic vote was pretty much divided 3 different ways. If we have a solid democrat next time, and no 3rd-parties in contention, I predict that Perry will loose easily.

16. George Carlin on stupid people |
|
Carlin has a clip on youtube about stupid people. It's hilarious but it's the truth. I think the stupid virus mainly strikes republicans.

19. Speaking as a teacher |
|
If average IQ is 100, then "normal" is 85-115. Think about it: Someone with an IQ of 85 is still considered in the normal/average range. Most newspapers and magazines are written at a fifth or sixth grade level. So yes, the world is dumber than you think.

24. If you exclude children, the infirm, mutes, hermits and others, |
|
who can't be fairly or easily tested... well, it's still over 50%, but it's less than it was - and that's my point!
