Why Democrats Are Idiot's
« on: November 14, 2008, 05:22:19 AM »
I feel it's time to start a thread that fully explains why these people are so stupid with their train of thought politically, as well as socially.

 They constantly complain about "the rich getting richer", and blame it on the Republican process, when in reality it is their own stupidity which prevents them from obtaining wealth in any great degree.  It's always about "the money" because for the most part democrats are too stupid to earn enough to maintain an overall lifestyle that matches that of the Republicans.

 "You got it, I want it, but I'm too stupid to earn it myself, so I want the government to take it from you, and give some of it to me." Typical have not thinking, coupled with the stupidity that drives it, is what keeps the democratic party alive. It is the reason all poor minorities, blacks, hispanics, etc. all vote democratic, and the same reason the democrats pander to them with countless give away programs.

 The party of entitlement, vs. the party of self reliance. So when you break it all down idiot's are always democrats. They are more than willing to trade freedom, for a much larger and more expensive government that will give them what they are too stupid to acquire on their own.

 There are more democrats today simply because there are more idiot's. Hussein will do everything in his power to legalize all 30+ million of the illegal invaders in this country because 1.), they are all idiot's and mindless Lemmings that want governmental freebies, and 2.), they'll all vote democratic when Hussein "legalizes", and finishes pandering to them. It is doubtful that NASA will be hiring any of them.

 Just look at the programs the democrats want. They are all, for the most part, things the Republicans already have. Housing, health care, education, retirement. The bulk of the democrats out there are too stupid to achieve them, and when they do they go about it in such an incredibly stupid fashion, (over mortgaged housing, and foolish credit card spending), they wind up losing it in the process. So of course they vote for a give away artist like Hussein who will increase the size of government, and create programs in the process, that will give it to them.
 
Now if you take the time to think about it, none of these programs would in fact be possible if there weren't any Republicans to increase taxes on to pay for them. No matter how you slice it the democrats should be repentant to the Republicans, simply because without them who could they tax to pay for the things they themselves are too stupid to achieve on their own?

In regards to the gun control issue, you can again see quite clearly how all of this relates to "democratic gun owners". It is again very simple because it points to what they are willing to give up, in order to get something more important to them than guns. How many times have you heard from the mouth of a democratic gun owner, "There are more important issues on the table in this election than guns!"

 They are more than willing to risk their ability to own firearms by voting in a socialist gun grabber like Hussein, who will give them relief from their high mortgages, doctor bills, and their ability to retire in a tin can in Florida. If they must sacrifice their AR-15 in the process, so be it. In their mindless eyes it's worth it.

Democrats are liberal, socialist, and to a very large degree, communists. They hate being called that for obvious reasons, but look up the words and you can draw many parallel lines to the democrats, along with what they stand for and represent.

Even our new socialist leader Hussein as said, along with his partner in crime Biden, "It's time to spread the wealth around", and "It's time to be "Patriotic" and "fess up" and pay more taxes". These idiot's are also for legalizing 30 million illegal invaders. They both, along with all of their democrat cohorts, want completely open borders. This will without question destroy our nation. Just look at Mexico and you can clearly see what is going to happen here. Much like looking at black run nations in Africa, and comparing them to our inner cities like Detroit, and Compton.

Democrats support, and want a secular society. Legalized abortion, drugs, gay marriage, along with gun control, and last but certainly not least, income redistribution. All of it boils down to giving up freedom, along with the traditional values that made this nation great, so these idiot's can get something more. Especially if they don't have to pay for the "more" end of it. It all boils down to a very simple way to understand a very simple minded group of "people", (i.e. Idiot's). Bill T.

I think liberalism is a mental disorder, the result of an unbalanced mind.  In psychology there is a term called "hemispherical lateralization". 
Lack of hemispherical lateralization is thought by some to play a role in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Asperger's syndrome, Autism, Schizophrenia, and Schizoaffective Disorder.
This is not intended to be a farce.  I am serious.

Another thing that amazes me about the total stupidity of Democrats is the fact they have example after example of failed socialistic systems and governments all over Europe, not to mention the state of California. High unemployment, failed socialized medicine with people waiting months for surgeries that are required immediately, over taxed socialized retirement, union destruction of companies, the list is all but endless. It matters not in the least, they continue to pour their mindless support into these failed governments and systems. Ignorance can be fixed by learning through the mistakes of others, but stupidity is repeating the same mistakes over and over. Such is the mindless make up of democrats.   Bill T.

The most prosperous countries on earth have been countries that have a true free market and little government interference. The US was once such a country, but then along comes big government to make things better and in their attempt they muddle market signals causing things to be worse. The democrat party is the party of big government. You watch what a mess they make of this. Reagan was elected of the premise of small government and we prospered. Since Reagan, government has grown and look what a mess we are in. You haven't seen anything yet, it's coming.
The sole purpose of government is to protect your liberty. The Constitution is not to restrict the people, but to restrict government.  Ron Paul

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first. - Thomas Jefferson

Bill you are right on the money. And when they see anything like you wrote that is well calculated and calculated they will argue until they turn blue. Fox had a stock broker on tonight and he pointed out that the market is like it is because it is called Obumonomics .
People are not spending because they do not trust Obama at all. The Liberal Allen Combs went crazy and said before the election the market went up and it did the day after. Sense then it hasnt because of Bush . The Broker said that it wasn't Bush ,it was because Obama was saying Crazy things about His Changing us into something that sounded like Communism.
I believe that is a lot of what it is , and i don't see the Right ever winning to many elections in the future ,even if there are elections then.
The reason is in 4 years the Mexican Population will have increased by 30% , and people are coming in here because they want to live for free.
Who is going to pay for this?? The left is acting like the more intelligent are the ones who will support the sub ignorant , makeing the Right something like slaves .
It is unbelievable isnt it ,and they win elections because they let the Stupid vote ,3 and 4 times.
We need to just close off our borders and cut off the East and west coast and starve them out.
After awhile i bet they will want to deal with us.
In this time i Command ,That you take the Secular to Jerusalem .

I registered to vote in 1976 soon as I could after hitting the legal age.
I quit voting for several years till Kartoon Klinton NATZI was elected and have decided that from now on I will vote every election.
 I am proud to say that the great state of Tn. has a few less idiots than sane reflected in the results of the election.

I have also decided that I will not vote for any Dem. from now on since a vote for the party builds up the insane left.

One sure sign of how stupid a Democrat / Liberal is look no farther than Barrack Obama.
Half of the country following him and not praying for him ,but to him.
When the rest of us including a significant number of Blacks ,see right threw his smoke and mirrors.
A lot of Churches are saying he is not the Anti Christ , but he is another Hitler.

So true Bluegunner! And what makes someone think that the government can do a better job than the market economy? They have proven the opposite.

I saw an interview asking people who they voted for. Most said Obama. When they were ask why, they said because he will bring change. Next they were ask "what change is it that you like best". None could answer!

It is interesting that he is appointing long time democrats to his cabinet. What change is that from their old ways? I am not sure Obama can answer the above question. :D

Well he cant seem to find where he left his Birth Certificate , or remember where he was born or gave him all that money.
When was the funeral was for his Grand Mother.
Some people are thinking all that money came from the Houseing Market scam he was in that started all of this.
He steals it then turns around and donates it to himself !
And why this guy gets away with all of this is amazing.
Why our entire Government is in this is scary.
But i believe they underestimated the intelligence of the unwashed masses.
Some of these Reporters in the media are quitting their jobs and moveing elsewhere.
All they will say is its simply ridiculous,the lies they tell, and then tell us to tell.
Everything is ,Make Obama look wonderful and smile when you say it.

Perhaps you've conveniently ignored the events of the past few months. I seem to recollect that the Bush Administration socialized the banking and more.

And if you want to have a real discussion of socialism ...

Police departments are socialism
Fire departments are socialism
Farm price supports are socialism
the US timber policies are socialism
the oil depletion tax allowance is socialism
the mortgage interest tax deduction is socialism
the FDIC is socialism (and has never been needed more)
the list could go on

labeling the Democrats as socialist is extremely short sighted and is probably just parroting the right wing talk show nincompoops

The public school system is also socialist.  There are some socialist things that are needed like fire and police departments, and national defence.

Schools: we should have a choice with vouchers.  Another possibility is to do like Germany and some European countrys.  Complete public school in 10 years instead of 12 and go in the summer.  This might cut down on dropouts and teen crime.  Teens can drive at 16 so schools wouldn't have to worry about teens leaving school and the school having a parking problem.  Have free or limited cost trade schools for those who can't cut it with college.  This might encourage some to continue another two years and get decent jobs. 

Retirement:  We should have a choice of social security, IRA's or investments, or a mix of investments.

Welfare:  If you get welfare, you must work if you are able bodied, even if it is picking up garbage, street repairs, etc.  Only cover two children begining at a certain date, after that date and after two kids, manditory sterilization if you continue to get government aid. 

Housing:  Those who can't afford housing, build government housing like commercial buildings, with concrete walls, steel doors, etc.  That way they will last longer, and less likely to be vandalized.  Build them high rise with security guards and entrance using ID cards or electronic keys issued to tennants like hotel rooms.  This will help stop drug dealers and pimps from entering without going through security and have limited visitation.  (This would be the price to pay for mooching off the taxpayers). 

Economy:  Free trade is great if you it is "FAIR" trade.  For instance if Japan can make radios for $2 and we can make rocking chairs for $2, but in Japan with imported wood, it would cost them $10 to make a chair, and if our labor is higher and it cost us to make radios for $10.  It makes sense to trade.  If we trade with China, trade should be with stipulations that they go to 40 hour work weeks, no child labor, and a decent minimum wage, social security, and any benefits our government gives out.  Give them a certain length of time to meet our equal conditions or we don't trade.  Same with the trade agreement with Mexico.  They need to bring their standards up towards ours or else we don't trade.  We can also kick start the economy by helping with tax breaks or credits, etc. for new nuclear power plants, wind and solar.  As far as the car bailouts, instead of taking over the industry like the government seems to want (socialism) give tax cuts and breaks to buy new energy efficient American made cars and trucks.  This will help them out by selling what they make.  Let the people choose which ones are the best.  Bad ones just have to go under. 

Energy:  As mentioned above, let private companies provide like they always have, but give tax cuts and breaks to help kick start alternative electric production and nuclear power.  Cut coal use for electric production and replace it with synthetic gas and diesel from coal.  Keeps the coal industry going, but eliminates foreign imported oil. 

Government can't do everything, but they can tax or give tax breaks to help change things.  I think once the production of wind, solar, and nuclear power production gets started, it will provide good jobs to build and maintain this new infrastructure.  Once our money is spent here instead of on foreign oil, some of our wealth will return.  Japan used taxes on their older industry and tax breaks to industry that modernized.  We should do the same.  So after WWII it forced their industry to constantly modernize. 

Just some thoughts

You toss words around and ignore the real meaning. Police and Fire departments are socialist .. at times in the past, there were private fire departments, now they are socialized

I suspect that your intent to label Democrats as socialists is based on several factors

1) you've been trained that the word "socialist" is a pejorative that can be used to cast, would be, aspersions on the Democrats

2) you don't have the requisite knowledge to lay out the specifics of your concerns (which programs?)

3) You abdicate thoughtfullness in your posts by relying on statements that are generalizations to a fault

4) You are still in denial that the Republicans, both created the need for socializing the banks,through their ill concieved deregulation and then acted to fill that need by socializing the banking system  ... and you have the gall to call the Demos socialists

AS I stated, I was really trying to be accurate, it was not intended as tongue in cheek kind of stuff.
I am a health care professional by trade, I am a clinical pharmacist.  I work in a clinical call center, and I work with md's, many who are psychiatrists, all over the nation.  Many of the issues I work with are associated with mental health.  I have authored 1 article myself, on the subject of PTSD.
IMHO, the core root, is a weakness in character, bringing a person to follow a path of dishonesty, immaturity, narssicism, denial, unbalanced emotionalism and self centeredness.
I get the impression from listening to these people that liberalism has become almost a perverted religion.  At the risk of sounding preachy, you are doomed to insanity and misery, if you worship things of this world, especially things of man's world.
I have read such people are born this way and they can not help it.  
Personally, I wonder if we are all born this way, which makes this the easiest path to follow.  
Doing your best to follow God, living a life of honesty, being patriotic, is not as easy.
But then again, most people are followers, and look at what we have had for leaders the past 2 generations.

Dixie Dude  ... your post did provoke some thoughts  .. let me respond with some affirmative and some negative ideas

Public school:

To me, vouchers are more social Darwinism .. "I got mine .. too bad about you". I feel that public education is one of the things that made our country great. Vouchers have the potential to cut public education off at the knees. If I may be permitted to editorialize, the political right gets twisted about unions ( teacher unions in this case) and this it the thing that causes the right to promote vouchers, not better quality education.

I also lament the current lack of trade school education in public schools. When I was in high school in the 60's, there was metal shop, wood shop, printing, home economics, auto shop. Where I live now, there are none of these available to students .. a real weakness.

Welfare:

I also agree that all should work ... but this creates a situation where the government must become the employer of last resort and creates a new bureaucratic nightmare

Economy:

Bingo on your fair trade comments. I've worked in purchasing and have been forced by my employers to move parts from US sources to Asian vendors .. something I've resented but had to do if I wanted to keep my job.

As far as the auto industry goes .. just giving the money is socialism ... should we just give money to GM and say, "do whatever you want"? .. as a taxpayer, if my money is going to them .. some controls need to be put on what they do with the money


Just remember:

Whenever public money is given to private industry, it is socialism ... we need to be very careful about socializing risk and privatising profits

The most prosperous countries on earth have been countries that have a true free market and little government interference. The US was once such a country, but then along comes big government to make things better and in their attempt they muddle market signals causing things to be worse. The democrat party is the party of big government. You watch what a mess they make of this. Reagan was elected of the premise of small government and we prospered. Since Reagan, government has grown and look what a mess we are in. You haven't seen anything yet, it's coming.

Gary G, I agree with you on much BUT! George Bush is the one that pushed this 750 billion dollar bailout, and George Bush is the one that gave this new Democratic soon to be president the tools i.e. "THE PATRIOT ACT" with which to work with. I mean come on here. I am in full agreement with everyone here on the Democratic idiocy, but let us alas take a look at this whole mess.
Every Republican voters' hero this year was candidate McCain a REPUBLICAN! A liberal if there ever was one. He tried to sell himself on his first run, as anti-gun. That didn't work, so he ran this time on pro-gun. Even many Republicans wouldn't vote for him. He was, and IS, a fraud, and a Republican.
The fact is, is that the whole damn bunch needs to be transformed into "wind chimes", Democrat AND Republican. George Bush signed the above mentioned bills and in fact CAME UP WITH THEM. He in my estimation USHERED IN SOCIALIST MARKETS. He has been the most damning president since Lincoln.
It seems that some are oblivious to the Republicans part in this mess, and they have at least 50% of the blame. Bush made it known early after the passing of the Clinton Assault Weapons Ban, that if Congress and the Senate would resurrect it, that HE WOULD SIGN IT back into law. Has everyone lost their short term memory?

Goater,

Of the 2 parties in this country, who do you think is more socialistic, and represents more social programs. This is a one word answer, please, no 3 paragraph dissertation.  Bill T.

  I guess I see the Dems as the most socialistic of the 2 partys. While I found Mc Cain a far from good candidate he was far from as bad as what we have now. Most of the third party supporters here were staunch in thier commitment to thier candidates, and I commend them in thier support. SOme others were the wishy washy flip floppers that could not make up thier minds on one candidate or not. Heck we had one here that was so excited about Mc Cain chosing Sarah as VP that they started a thread about it and that they woere now going to support Mc Cain. Well after a few days they went to bashing MC Cain and insulting anyone who was voting for them. I'm glad I picked a candidate, perfect or not and kept my word.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.
