This Just in on the Obvious Fact Newswire: Republicans are So Freaking Ignorant!
Yes, I know everyone knows this, but I just thought I'd detail my experiences today. First of all, do these people EVER TRULY update their talking points? I mean, I know lately they've been regular spastic colons, but I think that their bullshit tends to collect like hair in a shower drain. For instance, I had to still argue with someone today that tort reform and illegal immigration is not the biggest thing affecting the costs of health care, that there is not, in fact, a liberal media bias.

And there was yet another guy who was still bitching that the Nobel vote happened in February instead of recently. I mean, is this talking point actually STILL floating around? Or are they just that ignorant? I'm at a loss as to how some people can go through life so willfully dumb. I'm surprised they aren't wearing white linen suits with pink undershirts and loafers ala Miami Vice, because I think their talking points are about that stale.

1. Part of the insidious power of RW talking points is that they're recycled endlessly.

2. One of them also told me that Rachel Maddow was the lefty version of Glenn Beck.
Seriously? I mean... SERIOUSLY? He really thinks that the left just walks in lockstep and stays on message, just like the right does. Do these idiots ever for a minute actually spend time among lefties? Do they not know that we fight more amongst ourselves than families on Jerry Springer? LOL

5. Short attention spans guarantee they're always "fresh" for the intended audience

4. A RWer posted on another form a complaint that Obama had been
nominated a mere two weeks after he got ELECTED, so he didn't deserve it.

:eyes:

6. I take offense with your comparison.
A pastel T-shirt with a linen suit jacket is still relevant.

7. My apologies. :)
I live in the Pacific Northwest. That should explain it. No offense meant. LOL

8. *waves from PDX*
We like to "keep it weird" here. Lately I've been walking around down in a kilt and pirate hat... it's nice to see folks break out of the flannel/hoodie combos.
