I only have one criticism of this, the "Youth in Asia" signs were obviously meant as a parody.

1. Smarter maybe -however clearly less common sense and productive

when it comes to politics

[elleng]

11. Right, terms 'smart' and 'stupid' prolly don't do the job.

Will think of others.

2. The party with the most elected candidates will control the House & Senate after November, smart or

not.

34% of the voters in 2008 were conservative and 20% of them voted for Obama.

Without their vote Obama would have lost.

Do you want Obama to demean them and lose their vote in 2012?

[Turborama]

9. Where do you get those numbers from?

No, I don't want Obama to "demean them" and nothing I've posted in this thread suggests he should. I just posted this for fun. If you want to get upset about what this video says, that's your prerogative.

10. CNN President National Exit Poll, link below. I'm not upset, I've enjoyed the exchange.

20. In trying to please all the people, you often please none. That's

what I see happening now. I expect a Democratic disaster in November, and a literal Armageddon in 2012.

17. Ha.

I've never seen that cartoon before.

4. "We" are so smart, yet "they" seem to get what they want?

[AsahinaKimi]

5. Maybe its the use of the

Childish tantrums they have.. if not that, threats of fear and violence. Oh..and having lots of money.

6. It is not how smart the Conservatives are

(I hear dueling banjos in my head ever time one of them opens their mouths) However that is not the point. It is how smart their handlers are and they (the handlers) are outsmarting us (the smarty's) at every turn. Conservatives are just easy dupes unable to see the most obvious duplicity. The bribes and payoffs help of course.

7. It's not how smart the cons are. It's the nasty, hateful, selfish values they embrace.

And we just make ourselves look petty and -- yes -- stupid when we resort to knee-jerk third grade insults like the OP did.

NGU.

8. I'd call it posting something for fun

And I find it ironic that you call me "petty and stupid" for posting "knee-jerk third grade insults".

[ClassWarrior]

13. Let's pass around a few n-word jokes too. Just for fun.

:eyes:

NGU.

[Turborama]

14. False equivalence

Knee jerk much?

[ClassWarrior]

15. How?

NGU.

[Turborama]

16. You really need me to explain?

Posting a video that a) quotes a study showing Conservatives have a lower intellect than Liberals and b) uses several of their inarticulate signs as evidence ≠ making racist jokes.

This video seems to have hit a raw nerve with you. 1st you start insulting me for posting it and now you're insinuating that by posting it for fun my motives are similar to racism. Ridiculous.

[ClassWarrior]

21. It's all about a sense of false superiority toward a group of people you hate.

And I didn't insult you. I said it makes you LOOK petty and stupid. I didn't say you ARE those things. (Though the more you talk, the more I wonder...)

NGU.

[ooglymoogly]

22. What do you think of when Mitch McConnell opens his

idiot mouth; Or Grassley, or Stupak, or just about any of the conservative nutjobs now holding us captive in Washington. Do you hear angels flopping around in the heavens whispering things you want to hear?

18. Kanazawa? He ain't a great academic, but at least another study sorta backs his up

For criticism of Kanazawa:
