Yeah, the certainty of more to come.

I think it is because there is a never ending supply of examples of their idiocy and hypocrisy!!!

Every time someone posts something here I read it.
I wonder if this is one of the moist successful threads ever as far as durability is concerned.

On another note... He was sick but I could not find out why. He sold the hobby shop and moved to Illinois where he got a job that had full medical. Since he voted for BHO twice, I wonder if he lost his coverage?

I love this topic!!!

A guy I knew owned a hobby shop that I go to and one day his wife was working because he was out of town. It was the day after someone had set all of those Hummers on fire. She was bragging about how those gas guzzlers were destroyed. The next day I go in there and her husband was working. I told him his wife was a hypocrite so he asked me why. I told him about what she had said the day before and that she had no room to talk. He asked me why and I explained the she was driving the Mustang GT 350(he drove a 6 cyl Mustang) which uses the most gas of any of the Mustangs and his answer was "Well, she had always wanted one"...

Then somehow Sarah Palin came up and he said he did not like her so I asked him why and he said because she is stupid. Puzzled, I asked him why he thought that and his answer was classic!!! "She said I can see Russia from my house" When I tried showing him the video of Tina Fey saying it on SNL he refused to look at it!!!

Yes liberals REALLY ARE that stupid!!!!!!!!!!

Amen, Rev! I'm trying the 'catch 'em while they're young' approach.

I've got a 'step-grandson' whose folks are fairly ardent Liberals. When this 14-year-old and I got into a dinner discussion of topical issues, I asked him if he had thought of 'where ALL the money comes from that "the government" provides to ALL of the 'wonderful programs' liberals love so much.'

After just a few more minutes, I believed he got the point that EVERY PENNY that 'the government provides to Anyone and Anything' comes out of taxes and fees paid by HIS Parents, me and all other citizens who pay their taxes.

I believe he got the point. Now i'm working on him with what I believe some call the Socratic approach... 'If something is a problem, WHAT Caused It To Be Such A Problem, and what was the cause of THAT driving factor... and so on, until you get close to the Real Root Cause of the Original Stated Problem.'

In my experience, most folks bail out of such a conversation after getting about three layers down. I postulate that a minimum of five or six layers Often, but Not Always, gets you to Root Cause. One dinner conversation with this young man, he counted between 8 and 11 layers down of such digging and we still agreed that we hadn't struck the ore of Root Cause of the particular issue.

He's very bright, and I treasure these conversations with him. Fortunately, he appreciates them, too!

And boy, is HE a rare one. :)

Once upon a time, I worked for an agency where I'd interview prospective "moochers" for benefits. I'd bitch about the attitude of the moochers and be asked why I cared when the government paid for the benefits issued. My response was usually along the lines of informing the co-worker of where the government gets the money to give the benefits. Some got it, others just gave me the dumb blank stare of the terminally liberal. Never so happy to leave a job in my life. It was terribly depressing to realize that some of my co-workers, though college educated same as me, still believed in unicorns and fairy dust.

In a word (make that 2 words?) of course!!

Spot on, Rev... I came up with the kernel of a new Falk's Law but haven't figured out a catchy and short way to describe the concept...

"What if the moochers don't see their handouts are coming at the price of their own freedoms?"

Or something like that.... If the 'stupids' can't/don't see what we'd call unintended consequences of their own actions, there is NO WAY they're going to change their thoughts, ways OR VOTES... and trust me on this: They Outnumber Us!

Yep, sure did. Just took me a while to put it all into the context of driving businesses out of business. That is not logical, unless there is an ideology involved. And there is, complete government control of everything. I looked at the takeover of GM, etc. and thought everything else was gonna follow that pattern. Wrong. Now I see the error of my ways in following the false trail. Just use the agencies to control without the headache of owning. That way there is no blowback on the politicians when the businesses fail. Smart of them, sorta.
The "stupids" will not see it until it affects them, and maybe not even then. Ideology of any kind is like wearing blinders to reality.

+1 for the Heinlein quote

Yes, liberals are that stupid. They are hell bent on servitude and possibly suicidal in their commitment to being chained and shackled (maybe not metaphorically).

I don't, but maybe he should. My fear is irrelevant. His might keep his ass out of trouble... or public view.
His choice.

I fear for his life. -- j

John, we'll maybe see how well that 'deserter' does when he [eventually?] tries to re-integrate into our society... Paybacks can be hell...

and BHO would trade gitmo prisoners for a deserter,
whom many in the army would have summarily
executed, on the spot, for "going over the hill" ....... -- j

You noticed! Good! Now if the 'stupids' that Gruber was pointing out would see that, we might avoid the advent of President Hillary...

I just turned 69 and I recall a comment from that era, too... "LBJ would sell his own grandmother...! ... but HHH would Give Her Away!"

Yeah, I was going to point out a few items of 'obvious stupidity' such as being pro-choice or anti-capital punishment, but looking at the comments part of the linked page, well.... it would be worse than trying to sell holy water to Satan's Choir...

They KNOW they're completely Right and The Other Side is Completely Evil, and conversation, let alone conversion, is truly impossible.

Welcome to a view of how fundamentalists and Born-Again's view atheists (large OR small 'A')

Happy New Year, friend!

Maybe they are not stupid. Viewed from the perspective of wanting to increase control and gain power, perhaps the appearance of stupid masks their actual intent.
