They don't get it...the GOP is still trying to DumbDown America. Obama is using Brains and the GOP
has a lack of it...

The GOP has succeeded in Dumbing Down their own and as a result...cannot figure out solutions other than to flail about with drivel moot shit.

Brains is the answer and Obama beat the Pubs to it....

He got Reason, Sanity, and Truth Locked. The Pubs can only drool.

3. Yep, this new GOP strategy outlined in this article outlines their latest dumbing down of America
The new GOP wedge issue, parental rights!

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0409/21041.html

Basically it's an attack on a UN treaty that only the US and Somalia haven't signed, it's a treaty outlining the rights of children! They're using fear mongering badly oversimplified rhetoric about a complex treaty, claiming stuff like kids could seek a government review of every parental decision that they don't agree with.

The reason for attacking the treaty is because Obama on the campaign trail, and some of his people in his cabinet now, have mentioned that they need to review the treaty, and that it's crazy that us and Somalia are the only 2 countries to not sign this treaty.

4. Delusion often results in Rejection....of Reality....leading to Illogical Decisions
Edited on Thu Apr-09-09 01:20 AM by opihimoimoi
They have Dumbed themselves into Self Extinction.....its evident....that is confirmed by their SHALLOW BENCH and Lack of Options

addendum

The GOP went as far as it could using Bully Tactics, etc...Now, even a tuneup aint gonna do it....They need to cleanse the Bullies outta the Pub Party if they want any odds on saving/salvaging.....them Bullies are KILLING The Pub Party...

Strength comes from Credibility


the PUBS LOST THEIRS during the Bush Years

7. They believed their own bullshit and acted on it - resulting in Palin
for VP.
They think Newt is their "smart" answer to Obama!
They are so dumb they don't even realise how dumb they are.
