Remember when the entire Fright-Wing™ freaked out when then Senator Obama, running for POTUS, stated that a lot of America “clings to guns or religion”…?
Not stupid enough to ever vote you into the White House or buy those vitamin supplements that you claim cure cancer.
Agent K - philosopher
My favorite quote.
Doesn’t look like quite as many are clinging to the RNC or its presidential candidates any longer.
His popularity being a perfect example of the truth of that statement.
ummm… Huckabee… Gingrich… the Palin family…
The comment is factually correct. What’s the big deal?
It is one of my two favorite quotes from that movie
Many Americans are in fact stupid, and most of them are “conservatives.”
You have to be fucking stupid to buy the bullshit the GOP is shoveling.
Who knew being a complete and utter asshole could be so lucrative.
Sarah Palin
Even if it is factually correct, the majority of Americans do not think of themselves as stupid, and will take insult at being called stupid. Thus, it is something only a bonehead running for office would say that would get them into real trouble.
“We’d be Cuba if there were no Fox News.”
Actually, we’d be the United States if there were no Fox News. At least, that’s what we were between 1776 and 1996, before Fox News was created.
“Ben Carson: Dumber than advertised”, to misquote the late great Molly Ivins.
Just look at Carson’s polling and nod in agreement.
Yesterday, I heard a respected commentator say he is convinced that Dr. Carson has no interest in being President (hence his total disinterest in how government actually works). The claim was that he is an incredibly smart huckster who is building a future market for himself and is willing to say or do anything for the $$$. We typically hear how sincere Carson is - but this commentator’s assessment makes more sense to me.
To find the stupid Americans Carson is speaking of, take a quick peek at the latest polls.
The science bears that out very well:
Why Liberals Are More Intelligent Than Conservatives:
Liberals think they’re more intelligent than conservatives because they are
Republicans love to remind you that Fox News has the widest reach of any cable news network, unless they’re whining about the mainstream media when suddenly Fox becomes some kind of grass roots newsletter run out of some podunk little down. Dr. Carson: Fox News IS the mainstream media.
I believe you. Many of us have turned to Dialectical thinking for “hope for the future”.
I can only imagine the outrage if a non-GOTPer said such a thing.
