Must be because they watch Fox instead of MSNBC. Or do they read more? Or is it natural intelligence?

Such bullshite.

Why is it that almost every intelligent and hardworking person I know and meet is a conservative or at least moderate, and every mouthbreathing ignorant lowlife I meet is a Dem?

Do I run in the wrong circles? Should I hang out with more ignorant lowlifes to change my views on politics?

Democrats only outscored Republicans in naming the primary Ebola outbreak location and the federal poverty rate, but only by 2 and 5 percentage points, respectively.


Let me guess, Republicans said Dallas, since Enola and Dallas have taken over Fox's favorite word Benghazi, and for the poverty rate the said 0, since fox doesn't report it... And if Fox doesn't report it, it didn't happen.

What does any of this have to do with the price of ball gags in Vegas?

But what SHOULD the poverty rate be?


The Republicans are essentially bragging that their plan to defund public education and dumb down the masses is succeeding. Well done righties!

Out of 12 questions asked, Republicans outperformed both Democrats and Independents on 10.

In 2012, Republicans outscored Democrats on 11 of 12 items.

In the 2011 Pew survey, Republicans outperformed Democrats on every single one of 19 questions, and in 2010 Republicans tested better than Democrats on 10 of 12 questions, with 1 tie score and Democrats testing better on just 1.  


quote:

In 2010, as just one example, The New York Times conducted a survey on Tea Party supporters, and the results surely jolted editors and readers alike.  Under the headline "Poll Finds Tea Party Backers Wealthier and More Educated," The Times conceded that Tea Partiers were more likely to possess a college degree than their opposition by a 23% to 15 % margin, as well as to have obtained a graduate degree by a 14% to 10% differential.  Tea Partiers were also more likely to have "some college" while less likely to have not completed high school (3% versus 12%). 


I'd say the science is settled.

I'm sure Tea Parties are also the type that are eager to answer surveys. Especially the less educated ones. That way we know we have a fair sample.

I think you might be confusing being informed with being intelligent. This board is full of well-informed morons.

The remarkable finding was that 71% of Democrats, and 68% of Republicans, support a doctor's ending a patient's life by some painless means if the patient requests that and has a terminal illness, but only 60% of Democrats, and 41% of Republicans, do when that is referred to as "to assist the patient to commit suicide."


LOL. 11% of Democrats changed their position when the question was rephrased vs. 28% of Republicans!

Republicans surely are well informed morons!

That poll is more full of shite than you are. Most people are against suicide, and just hearing the word turns them off. Has nothing to do with being "easily manipulated". That study is retarded, like you.

Yeah, Dems aren't easily manipulated.

"We have to pass it to see what's in it. "

"They're gonna put you back in chains!"

Please.
