Republicans are INSANE
Looking at WJ this morning I can only conclude that these people are truly insane. How in the name of "GOD" can anyone deny what is going on in the world and especially this country today. Arm chair rethugs continuing to support a war made up of lies,deceit and greed. Giving an amazing support for a person selected to lead our country base on fantasy and ignorance.

6. I feel stun at the thought of even
knowing people like that. They are either totally ignorant or someone is paying them to spout their false retoric. I am amazed!!

4. Your skirting dangerously close to the line "insane people are bad people"
Don't cross it.

I'm going to assume you mean "they are very disconnected from reality" rather than "they are bad or not-nice people"

Eh. I'm just sensitive about the slandering of people with mental health issues, you see. :)

5. I think 'evil' is a better description than 'insane' actually
The point is, they LIKE what is going on.

They LIKE the fact that we kill innocent people around the world.

They LIKE the torture rooms and the rapes.

They LIKE racism and inequality.

Their ideal world is Rome under Caligula or Nero. Those gues are heroes to these people.

8. You are right they like the murdering and torture.
A RW friend told me he didn't care how many 12 year old boys had to be raped but if it help one American soldier it was worth it. This guy thinks he is a Christian. Who would Jesus rape?

9. Another way to look at it...
They're simply stupid. I don't mean developmentally disabled or "flunked out of sixth-grade stupid". I mean just stupid. There are many people out there who suffer from stupidity, yet they hold jobs (sometimes good jobs) and pursue their goals like normal people. The stupidity only comes out when they call Washington Journal or vote.

14. Yeah, perhaps
Echoing an earlier post, I do think it's fair to be clear about the distinction between mental illness and 'bad'. But I also think that sadism and paranoia fall under mental illness to some extent, and a lot of freepers exhibit those characteristics. Seems like a lot of them get an almost erotic joy out of the idea of 'them Ayrabs gettin killed'.

15. Schizophrenia
Edited on Thu Apr-12-07 07:14 AM by A wise Man
A psychotic disorder characterized by loss of contact with the environment and by disintegration of personality expressed as disorder of feelings,thought, and conduct. Sounds like a republican to me, also in complete denial of truth and reality.

16. Again, I want to separate 'evil' and 'insane' as much as possible
People who gloat at the idea that we have soldiers on film taunting thirsty children with water are EVIL.

7. Because the mainstream press doesn't really report
much. The press allows lies to continue to be discourse. If nothing is done about it, it will continue.

17. One loon just said that...
the way to world peace, for good Christians, is though war. :eyes:
Some other idiot said that we're fighting in a country where Arabs have been fighting Jews for centuries. :eyes:
I suspect that Mars is warming because of increased hot air from all the wingnuts who've moved there.
