I’m going to start with the most intelligent of the
Republican idiots, then work my way down the list getting progressively
more stupid.
The Educated Republicans:
These are the rarest of all Republicans. Occasionally you will run into
one in public, or in a public-forum online. These Republicans are the
smartest of the Republican idiots. They have learned everything there is
to know about their position, from a Republican perspective. They’ve
educated themselves on all the reasons why their position is correct.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
Anyone with the internet and 5 minutes can find something
that thoroughly discredits their version of the “facts”. Even with
confronted with contradictory facts though they will continue to fall
back on their original arguments, try to change the subject to something
they are more comfortable talking about, or start expressing opinions
with no factual merit.
What to Remember when debating them:
Keep them on-topic. Don’t let them ignore your counter-points
and then change the subject on you. They’re masters of that, but if you
can keep them on topic eventually they will just start expressing
opinions to which you can say “do you have any facts to back that up?”
Fox News and Conservative Talk Radio Republicans:
These are one of the angriest groups of Republicans. They watch Fox News
or listen to Conservative Talk Radio and they think it makes them an
expert on politics. The only knowledge they have of politics is parroted
talking points without any facts to back them up. When you defeat them
in debate they will result to calling you names like “Liberal”, or
“commie” or “socialist” or “baby-killer” etc. They think all liberals
are socialists that want to take their money and give it to people who
don’t deserve it.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
They have no idea what they are talking about. Usually they’re just
repeating things they have heard from Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh. They
think that liberals want to take away their freedoms and they clearly
don’t know what the word “liberal” means, or what liberal have done for
our country and freedom. They think President Obama is comparable to
Hitler for passing health-care reform. They accuse you of watching MSNBC
if you don’t agree with them. They call you a sheep but expect you to
blindly believe everything they tell you, without question.
What to Remember when debating them:
Keep demanding facts from them to back up their assertions until they
break down and call you any of the aforementioned names. Ask them to
name specific freedoms that liberals have taken away from them. They
have a tendency to become violent so watch their hands if you are
debating them face to face.
Christian Republicans:
The Republicans are hypocrites. They do everything in the name of
Christ, while simultaneously acting as un-Christlike as humanly
possible. They support the right to carry assault weapons, are pro-War,
and completely ignore the fact that the Bible depicts Christ as a
Liberal who was opposed to capitalism and violence. They sincerely
believe that this is God’s country and that God loves us more than
anyone else in the world. They think that anyone that is not 100%
pro-Israel is anti-semitic. They hate everyone that doesn’t agree with
them and think the Bible tells them to, and they hate Gay people because
they think they are sinners.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
They do terrible things in the name of their Lord. They think
that anyone that doesn’t agree with them is damned to hell or hates
America. They believe that we are a Christian Nation even though the
Founding Fathers made sure that they did not brand this country as a
Christian Nation. The Founding Fathers wanted a country of religious
freedom, free from religious persecution, but these Republicans will
never admit that.
What to Remember when debating them:
There’s a list of all the quotes that prove our Founding Fathers wanted a Country of religious freedom. The link is HERE.
Another thing to remember is that the Christian Right is neither. Start
asking them questions like “how would Jesus feel about war?”, “how
would Jesus feel about assault rifles?”, or “do you REALLY think that
America is God’s favorite country, in the ENTIRE universe?”. And of
these questions should yield a response that thoroughly proves that they
are hypocrites, and continuing to argue with them would be a waste of
time.
Tea Party Republicans:
These Republicans are a dumbed-down combination of the previous 2 groups
of Republicans. They think Sarah Palin is intelligent and it’s the
media filter’s fault that she looks so stupid. They think Reagan was
fiscally Conservative even though he tripled the deficit. They watch Fox
News religiously, and think Glenn Beck is credible. They don’t
understand why people think they’re racist while they’re standing next
to people holding racist signs. They protest higher taxes even though
taxes have gone down for 95% of working families.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
They parrot Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin talking points. When you
discredit one thing they say they immediately move on to the next
subject. Anyone that doesn’t agree with them is a socialist, even though
they can’t give you the actual definition of socialism. Many of them
are on Medicare while protesting “socialism”. They have never met a
socialist, so they have no idea what socialists believe. They think
liberals are socialists and socialists are Nazis.
What to Remember when debating them:
They have no idea what they’re talking about. Ask them to
prove what they are saying. If you ask them a question and they respond
with a question refuse to answer their question until they answer yours.
Don’t back down. Remind them that taxes have actually been lowered for
95% of working families. If debating them in public be careful because
they are known to carry guns in places they don’t need them, like public
parks and bars and churches.
Birther Republicans:
The birthers think that Obama was born in Kenya. No matter how much
evidence you present them with that is contradictory to that they will
continue to insist that he is not the legitimate President. They are
sore-losers because McCain lost the election, and they will never
support Obama, even if he paid off the entire National Debt.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
They think Obama was born in Kenya. They think that Orly
Taitz, who grew up in a socialist country, is credible, and that Obama
is a socialist. They think that Obama’s birth announcements in Hawaiian
newspapers were propagated over 40 years in advance of his election,
just so that he could be elected someday.
What to Remember when debating them:
Don’t waste your time. You could wave Obama’s actual birth
certificate in their face and they would still say it’s a fake. They are
sore-losers and they will never be happy as long as Obama is President.
Make jokes asking to see their birth certificates, or Sarah Palin’s
birth certificate. This is the best way to get them to go away.
Racist Republicans:
[DISCLAIMER: I am putting this one almost last for a reason. I do NOT
think that all Republicans are racists. I have Republican family members
who are not racist. This section is only about the small percentage of
Republicans that are ACTUALLY racist, because they do exist. I'm not
"playing the race card" or "race-baiting", I'm just describing a small
group of racists who also affiliate themselves with the Republican
Party]
Racist Republicans hate Obama because he’s black. They think
that all Muslims are terrorists. They think Obama is a terrorist Muslim.
Anyone with a name like Obama’s is a terrorist.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
They’re racist, but they think Obama is a racist. They can’t
understand why people call them racists when they post racist pictures
or racist comments and then claim not to be racist. Whenever they
possibly can they will call you a racist, to hide the fact that they are
actually racists.
What to Remember when debating them:
They’re racists. Racists are uneducated bigots. You would
have a much easier time convincing an apple tree to start growing
oranges.
Extremely Idiotic Republicans:
These Republicans are Republicans because they think it’s cool. They
have a Republican in one of the other groups listed, so they think they
know what they’re talking about. They have terrible spelling and grammar
but they expect you to believe whatever they say because they are
saying it to you.
The reason why this type of Republican is an idiot:
It’s hard to tell if they ever made it past the 4th grade.
Most of their posts are illegible. The don’t know anything about their
position other than what they have heard their friends
say. They think that Republicans are fiscally conservative because they
say that they are, and call anyone that doesn’t agree with them sheep.
They ignore all historical information that is contradictory to what
they say. They are 100% blind to facts.
What to Remember when debating them:
No amount of facts or logic will ever convince them that their buddies are wrong. You could be a college professor and they will still think that your opinion isn’t credible. Instead of trying to argue with them try explaining Algebra to your dog. I’m sure it will be much more productive.
I hope that this has been an informative resource for you. I hope you will remember some of the things I have said the next time you are engaged in a debate with a Republican idiot. I think this covers most of the reps on here.
