These Obama supporters do sound stupid, and I'm sure there are many like them...


...but just how stupid to certain conservatives have to be to believe that this is a unique circumstance to only the one party they oppose?

So they are stupid because they didn't read his bill within 24 hours?

Do you read bills immediately the day after they are proposed? There are times when I'm so busy that I don't read the newspaper for days, are people supposed to stop everything they do to read every bill proposed?

Default Obama supporters hold the superior position

They are infinitely better than the 61 million Neanderthals who voted to reelect the village idiot.

You Pubs continue to astound with this utter nonsense.

You can take a sample of any demographic and you will find those that speak of which they have no real knowledge.

In these polls how many people did they have to ask before they got the wrong answers they were looking for?

Then again I've met some new grads in the oil industry who hate Obama...in California nonetheless. So they are not all lost cases.
Personal anecdote=/=Proof.

Americans are stupid in general; the large demographic (thankfully not the majority) who support the Palin/Bachmann/Perry line of reality where ignorance and "straight-talkin" is valued and intellectualism is "elitist" only supports this.

They are not stupid because they did not read the bill quickly. They are stupid for voicing support for something they have yet to read YET. That and the fact they it went further than that. They said they don't know anything about any of his policies.

I asked for a link or other verification of your statement on page #1 of this post, we are now on page #9.

Can you or can you not support your statement with corroboration??..

This is a sad, sad thread. Fellow Americans calling each other stupid due to who they support or the policies they support. You guys sit here and call each other stupid yet have no proof what so ever to back it up. Conservative posters come on here and claim everyone who supported President Obama is stupid and says you can tell by the posts on C-D. Non-conservative posters come on here and claim everyone who supported President Bush or Palin or McCain is stupid and says you can tell by the posts on C-D.Do you guys not see the Hypocrisy in the statements you make.

Also, someone pointed out on here that the college educated are idiots and stupid. Really? Then who, pray tell, are all the smart people in this country? Did the majority of them not go to school for higher learning? Or were they just natural geniuses who could solve complex mathematical equations, program in complex languages, evaluate illnesses and prescribe remedies for them, run successful businesses, or etc from the completion of grade school? Sheesh. Stop and think before you write something stupid.

PS. Liberal and moderate people own and run businesses too just like conservatives.

I do not like name calling either.

Yet, I feel you just called posters stupid.

Generally you will find business owners to be on the conservative side. At least fiscally.

Like I said in a post above, it all changes when it is YOUR money they want to take.
