Republicans are openly arguing for us to be DUMBER? LOL WUT?!?

Republicans are openly arguing for us to be DUMBER? LOL WUT?!?

by MinistryOfTruth

If ignorance is bliss, why are Republicans always angry?

Albert Einstein, Snob.

Sarah Palin? Genius.

At this point, you literally have to be a fraking idiot to vote Republican.

Some people have gotten mad at me for calling Republicans a pack of idiotic slack jawed yokels...Well, now that Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum is bad mouthing people who seek education, I get to call Republicans total idiots as often as I like. When you celebrate ignorance and boo education you don't get to cry when I call you a moron.

The banksters WANT more stupid people. Easy to fleece imbeciles who consistently vote to screw themselves over so a billionaire can have another tax cut. Morons. Republicans.

And these morons think that seeking educations makes you a snob, but watching Fox News and nothing else all day makes you a genius. Rick Santorum thinks that President Obama wants to "remake people in his own image" through access to higher education. Well if wanting to be smart and successful like President Obama is a crime, consider me guilty.

And consider yourself dismissed for being a fraking idiotic jackhole.

<...>

But I will leave you with these words by that literate snob Robert Reich . . .

A party of birthers, creationists, theocrats, climate-change deniers, nativists, gay-bashers, anti-abortionists, media paranoids, anti-intellectuals, and out-of-touch country clubbers cannot govern America.

Govern America? HA! At this point, I'd be amazed if these illiterate conservative neck-beards could govern a trip through the drive through window at McDonald's.

Republicans can choose to be as dumb as they want. It's a matter of choice, and, um, ah, er.

Wait. This means mission accomplished.

Nevermind.

no, calling other people morons makes you a snob.

Santorum knows how to play to the American base. This has been a winning message for Republicans for years "liberal elites think they are better than you".
