Have you ever said or heard people say that conservatives are stupid?
Here’s a few comments I’ve seen over the past few weeks:
“In short, they’re screwy.” “This is a big reason the GOP/T can marshal their forces in large numbers = they don't think - they just `behave’”. “so, they're ignorant, loony, hypocritical, fake, sociopathic, pathetic, and deceitful …” “I have a functioning brain that will not allow me to place `faith’ where `facts’ belong.” I’m sure you won’t have to look far to find more. One of my favorites, in fact, was Stephen Colbert’s brilliant send-up of George W. Bush at the White House Correspondents dinner in 2006: We go straight from the gut, right sir? That's where the truth lies, right down here in the gut. Do you know you have more nerve endings in your gut than you have in your head? You can look it up. I know some of you are going to say "I did look it up, and that's not true." That's 'cause you looked it up in a book. The message is that conservatives don’t think with their heads (or much at all).So what happens when you confront liberals with scientific evidence that refutes their own beliefs? (And WTF does Gödel's incompleteness theorem have to do with any of this?)
You probably won't believe me ("That's a joke, son." - Foghorn Leghorn).
