The GOP is channeling Einstein.

[chieftain]

"Three great forces rule the world: stupidity, fear and greed" - Albert Einstein. Frank Luntz won't say it out loud but Einstein's 3 forces are the cornerstones of the Republican Party's approach to the electorate.

1. I like it!

Here all this time I thought they were channeling the other three forces... Moe, Larry, and Curly!

[txlibdem]

7. Yeah. I don't think people mean it when they say "way to go Einstein!"

to the Repukes that they know. I'm pretty sure that's not a compliment.

:hi:

You're on the right track with the stooges.

2. One can add another stone to make it square...

I think ignorance is one of the most powerful negative forces known to humanity.

[GoCubsGo]

4. Considering their ignorance is willfull ignorance...

They have the facts in front of them, and they choose not to believe them. That is not ignorance. It's outright stupidity.

[chieftain]

5. It is amazing to me how many rank and file Repubs

engage in the willful ignorance you cite.I know there are a lot of gullible people who fall for the rantings of Limbaugh and the pettifoggery of Beck but there are too many GOPers who are smart enough to know that their propaganda machine is spewing nonsense and they just don't care so long as their team wins.

3. I always remember that as

"The two most common substances in the world are hydrogen and stupidity."

6. I thought they were the cornerstone of Luntz. nt

[11 Bravo]

8. Nah, the three cornerstones of Luntz are Twinkies, focus groups, and FauxNews.

9. What about hate? nt
