Why are right-wingers so damn childish?

[Archae]

The rally in DC on the Capitol steps, their disruptions of congresswomens' speeches, Joe "You lie!" Wilson, commentators who pout and refuse to be honest, just on and on.

From another message board, look at this loser's screed.
Michelle Obama? A "broad."
Blames "Muslim culture" for the Ft Hood massacre.
Milwaukee a "frozen shithole."

(Begin post)

1. A Muslim Army major shouts "Allah akbar" and kills 13 people at Fort
Hood, Texas, most of them American soldiers processing for overseas
deployment. The Muslim Army major's family tell reporters that the Muslim
Army major was "mortified" that he was about to be deployed to Afghanistan
("mortified" means embarrassed to the point of humiliation, but I will say
simply that English is a tough language and move on). The Muslim Army major
is brought down by a wounded woman cop, which should be *truly* mortifying
to the Muslim Army major given the seething hatred of women that infects
Muslim culture

2. In response to the Fort Hood massacre, Obama's staff prepares a
statement for the commander in chief to read - from paper this time as no
Obamaprompter is available. Barry strides to the rostrum and begins his
remarks, and this country is stunned that this tone-deaf idiot politician
opens not with comments about Fort Hood and our dead soldiers but about some
tribal meeting the Interior Department hosted. Obama sends a "shout out" to
Dr. Joe Medicine Crow, whom he idendifies as a Medal of Honor winner; Dr.
Crow is not a Medal of Honor winner, but a holder of the Medal of Freedom,
which Obama himself presented to to Dr. Crow (I am not making this up).
After rambling for several minutes, the commander in chief finally gets to
the events of the day at Fort Hood by reminding us that he is commander in
chief with weighty responsibilities. Editorial writers from the right AND
the left are amazed that this idiot botched the day so badly. Imagine what
his staff thought.

3. No sooner does the gunsmoke clear from Fort Hood than Obama heads not to
Texas but to Camp David for a little vacation with the broad and the girls -
one of the weighty responsibilities that comes with being commander in
chief.

4. President GW and Laura Bush head to Fort Hood to visit with the wounded
and to comfort the families of the dead, and they invite no press to attend.
Their visit is not a photo op - compare to Obama's press-heavy visit to
Dover last week

5. On Tuesday, after five campaign visits from Obama, John Corzine loses
his governor's seat in the corruption swamp of New Jersey, and Virginia goes
back to Republican control. Democrats manage to eke out a victory in New
York's 23rd Congressional district against a nerdy former accountant.

6. Sarah Palin wows em at a pro-life rally in the frozen shithole
Milwaukee.

1. Because, Sir, One Cannot be Both A Grown-Up And A Right-Winger

Stunted social and personal development is the defining characteristic of a rightist political orientation.

2. They act like children even though many RWs are angry old people.

I am always perplexed by how they can scream and holler so much without getting heart attacks.

5. Hmmmm! Do I sense a wee bit of "ageism" in your comment?

[tsuki]

3. Because they have always gotten everything they wanted by throwing

tantrums. So much easier than reason.

4. I call "republicanism" "permanent teenager syndrome"

They are mentally and emotionally stunted people. Sometimes they're fun to be with, but their ability to comprehend the effects that their idiotic political views have on others is missing. I also refer to it a "lacking the compassion gene".

6. Because most of them have a 5th grade level education

and when you base your decisions on E over I, you make stupid choices and sound like a 5th grader defending those choices.

7. Childish?

Nawwww

8. Lol

I forgot about that dope.

12. I'll never forget her

She became the poster child for the whole republican party the moment that picture was taken. It sums them all up right there.

9. You guys are all full of shit. They are genuinely scared. Hypervigilance.

[JanMichael]

11. What does your one-line post mean?

Do you agree with them or think they aren't childish idiots?

[Gman2]

14. It's not stunted development. Not directly.

I am going to do a piece on it. When you introduce FEAR into someone, he draws a line around himself, and his family, and screw everyone else. That is why they are so progun. And most of their other seemingly immature stances. It figures hugely into the shooters, etc. But, I will save that for my piece.

10. They are like a bunch of spoiled brats

they are used to getting their way and if they don't they will stomp their feet and yell until they do. Just my take.
