The stupidity and ignorance of conservatives never ever gets old. They will believe just about every word their radio talk show heroes tell them no matter how untrue or far-fetched it is.
Ummm yeah, an ivy-league educated individaul does not know how many states there are in this country? Let me guess, that is a product of affirmative action now?
Or, best yet, Obama is a Muslim? But these same people who say that keep pointing out to his Christian pastor who made "obscene and hurtful" remarks? So to get this straight, he's Muslim, but attends a Christian Chuch? Again, only ignorance can be attributed to such a belief.
Or, Obama refuses to wear a flag pin therefore he is unpatriotic?
Actually, he's not unpatriotic. Unpatriotic does not mean wrapping yourself around the flag, shuting up, and believing everything your government tells you. The people who are most unpatriotic are A) Corportations and B) People who hide behind the flag and are too scared to dissent because they are afraid their views are "out of step."
Conservatism = stupidity, ignorance, prejudice, and obsequiousness.Comment -
I resent the idea that Conservatism = stupidity, ignorance, prejudice, and obsequiousness as these people are not conservative they are idiotic "neo-cons" which is a far leap from conservatives/conservatismComment -
If you wanna get right down to it, our government as a whole is ridiculous... i wouldnt single out dems over rep. or vice versa...Comment -
I like Obama because I saw footage of him dribbling a basketball.
Does anything else really matter?Comment -

You can resent it all you want, but the research literature is relatively clear on these things. You need to accept it.
Who do you think are more educated, liberals or conservatives?
Who do you think holds more hostile attitudes toward African-Americans/Hispanics/other minority groups? Conservatives or liberals?
Who do you think is more suspectible to being persuaded by authority? Conservatives or liberals?
There is a lot of political science research on this kind of stuff and it does not paint a very pretty pitcure of conservative ideology.Comment -
2 party system does suck and leads to corruption and secret agendas so dem/rep does not matter but where you lay on the political spectrum does matterComment -
I really really really wish I had more of an education so I could form an opinion.Comment -

they are prolife and like their gun rights so they swear they are conservative there is a hell of a lot more to it then thatComment -
Just take a look at this forum for example....identify the 10 smartest people on here and I guarantee you they are overwhelmingly liberal.
Do a similar test with your friends....you'll find there is a pattern between education and liberalism. Or, low education=higher conservatism.Comment -
Sorry topgame, but this is just rambling and does not have much validity. Have you read the research literature on any of this stuff? Do you have a basic understanding of statistcs? Methodlogy?Originally posted by topgame85
If you do/did, you would have an understanding and appreciation about what I am saying. My emotions are completely removed from this. I rely on empirical evidence to form my beliefs on the matter. That's the only way to do it man.
Good luck....Comment -
I'm going to solve the world's problems on a message forum! YAY!Originally posted by BuddyBear
BuddyBear you can solve my problems by picking me a winner today. Who do you like? The Celtics? Raiders? Let me know friend.Comment -
I think BuddyBear might be full is you know what with this education nonsense.
Just in the last few posts he has misspelled "methodlogy" and "shuting".
Look within, my friend. It's OK to come clean here. We are your friends.Comment -
There is a ton of country folk that claim to be conservative who are uneducated and didn't make it past high school just as there is a huge minority population in inner cities that are liberal and uneducated, Liberals are more "educated" only because the American school system grammer-graduate school is run by liberals and those with conservative ideas are made to feel unwelcome and excluded, teachers don't like being proven wrong by students which I have had to do many times as early as the 6th grade when liberals teach liberals more liberals are breed and more conservatives held out of the best regarded institutions because their liberal teacher in undergraduate studies gave them a D on a paper because they disagreed with them this is the realityComment -
Buddy, will you say "empirical evidence" again? I have the over.Comment -
Listen man, how I can put this delicately, you are an idiot. You refuse to learn and worst of all, you are proud of your ignorance. You boast about it like it is a good thing or a quality to be proud of.Originally posted by Bread
Guys like me and you don't hang out in the real world. There is no way I would ever put you in my social class or consider you an intellectual equivalent on any level. We have nothing in common other than we both bet on games and are members of a gaming forum.
If I saw you on the street somewhere, i might smile or wave hi or something, but that's about it dude.
There are plenty of smart guys on here like Ganch, Durito, DonJuan, etc... I think you could stand to learn a little something from them.
Good luck in the future

If everyone would stop squandering in their ways believing every single thing their party does it the "right thing" it could solve alot of problems... Where's the open- mindedness to issues gone? Conservatives do just as many dumb things as that of liberals if you get right down to it.. We elect these officials thinking that they are serving in the best interst of the public, when in reality they all listen to complaints and get nothing done between the two of them... Congress is too worried about who gets their way (dem/rep) rather than whats best for the country.. They are all idiots!Comment -

Sorry...I had to run and make some copies for somebody. Did I miss anything??Comment -
The fact is John Mccain and almost everyone who claims to be conservative now is a "neo-con" and Mccain really is not even conservative moderate at best, No question Obama is more educated he was the editor of the Harvard review for CS but true conservatives know the way the world should be run, liberals want to protect, regulate, tax and skew everyones perception of the real world they have no concept of personal freedoms or the individualComment -
Would you people please use your recycling bins? I'm tired of picking up your trash cans and bottles flying out and breaking glass everywhere.Comment -
