How about Maxine Waters thinking that the sequester will cost The U.S. 170 MILLION jobs!

There are plenty of nuts on both sides of the fence. Maybe all of us could put aside our disagreements and agree to vote all of them out on both sides, you can still vote for the D or the R or the I just not the ones currently in office, lets start out fresh.

As a liberal, I would GLADLY vote out those two idiots. They are an embarrassment to the left. Stupid is stupid, but you have to admit that the empirical evidence shows there is only one side that has a near monopoly on idiotic thinking, right? The examples of anti-science, anti-logic, anti-reason is predominantly on the right, and that study by PPP proves it. It's not even close.

The video below showcases a list of crazy conservative beliefs:
Maher Rails Against ‘Stupid’ Americans And GOP For Being Defiantly Anti-Science, ‘Science Activist’ Weighs In | Mediaite

The rejection of science is possibly the single most dangerous thing we can do as a country. It stunts our growth and prosperity on every level. It's time to grow up and listen to non-biased experts in their field.

Why choose to be ignorant?
Climate change IS a hoax.

If not, why then do multimillionaires like algore built a multimillion dollar estate ON the Pacific Ocean?

Why were the two largest temperature studies tampered with?

Bigfoot? I don't know....I think that belief is shared.

Those who are actually informed by more than the msm know that Saddam Hussein was not involved in 911. Besides, the lefties started talking about taking him out for his "weapons of mass destruction" long before Bush considered running.

“Saddam’s goal … is to achieve the lifting of U.N. sanctions while retaining and enhancing Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction programs. We cannot, we must not and we will not let him succeed.” — Madeline Albright, 1998

“[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq’s refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.” — From a letter signed by Joe Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John Kerry among others on October 9, 1998

“The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow.” — Bill Clinton in 1998

“Iraq is not the only nation in the world to possess weapons of mass destruction, but it is the only nation with a leader who has used them against his own people.” — Tom Daschle in 1998

“As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process.” — Nancy Pelosi, December 16, 1998


There are many, many more if you would like to see them.

Since you have not provided evidence supporting your statement (a skill learned in middle school) I will assume that that was a lie (which is 3/7 of the way to liberal).

I would not claim all conservatives are willfully ignorant, but a number sure do seem to fit the bill. The my country, my party right or wrong kind of folks. I mean what intelligent person would listen to talk radio blowhards? Precious few, yet such shows have a huge following of loud people, usually conservatives.

A lot of folks are pretty close-minded, and those people seem to inhabit the far partisan edges of the parties.

You can just as easily repost that and insert 'liberal' and extract 'conservative'.

Here's logic.

A baby feels pain at 16 weeks. FACT.....SCIENCE

The earth has gone through hundreds of changes for millennium. FACT.....SCIENCE

Where I'm sitting right now was covered by a mile thick glacier only 12,000 years ago. FACT....SCIENCE

lefties look at data over a mere 50 years and decide that we humans are responsible for "climate change".

The climate has been extremely consistent over my lifetime. Cold in winter, hot in summer. Some are colder than others, some hotter.
