“It’s not because she’s a Conservative and I’m a Liberal.”

Of course it is, you TWIT! Don’t you listen yo your ‘Perfessers’ in class? What on Earth are your parents paying for?

I support her because watching the liberal reaction if she wins will be sweeter than seeing your worst enemy drive off a cliff in your second-worst enemy’s new car.

ROFLMAO **cough** **cough** ROFLMAO

seriously? how the hell can anyone say she isn’t qualified... when we’re stuck with a guy that routinely gets upstaged by a piece of office equipment (TOTUS), has less integrity than a sewer rat, and cannot even pronounce ‘corpsman’ or ‘orion’.

get a life, libtard. we’ve tried it your way since 2006 and already you’ve hosed the housing market, racked up enough debt to screw the next generation... and we’ll be lucky if the only terrorist that gets through will be the panty bomber.

and if this ‘elitist’ would like to match wits, without an ear piece, i’d love to drag him around the room by the ankles... you betcha

The backlash could be attributed to the lower education standards in conservative states. In 2006, the Census Bureau released a report detailing the percent of people in each state with a bachelor’s degree or more. A key statistic behind the highest 15 states: each one of them Obama won in 2008.

The flaws in this juvenile idiot's thinking are so grand, you wonder why his parents even bothered to send him to college.

1) He assumes conservative/liberal states are monolithic, meaning that he thinks everyone in a conservative state is conservative and everyone in a liberal state is liberal. He fails to understand that most states are close to the 50/50 ratio, rendering stats like this meaningless. California, for example, routinely goes roughly 52% to 48% for the Democrat in national elections, meaning that 48% vote exactly the opposite of what the author thinks they should be voting to prove his point.

2) He assumes that everyone who has a bachelor's degree or more is voting Democrat. There is nothing in any of his ridiculous statistics to suggest that, however. For example, California may have the most degrees per capita, but 50% or more of those degreed people may be voting Republican and it may be the "uneducated" degree-less people who are tipping the scales for Democrats, especially if we're talking special interest groups like blacks, latinos, etc. However, even if we were to assume that the proportion of Democrat-voting degreed people were well into the 60% range or even more, that would still fail to explain why not ALL of them were voting Democrat. In other words, if the liberal position were the correct one, and greater education helped people understand correct positions, then you would expect that nearly ALL of the degreed people would vote Democrat.

I could go on here, but it is quite clear that this kid understands very little about reality, despite his vaunted "education".

Dude, you go to Texas Tech and you lecture people on personnel decisions? I have two words for you: Bob Knight. Good night, sir.

The conservative movement, ever since the Civil Rights Act of 1964, has considered the Democratic Party elitist and for the intellectuals.

Well, maybe so-called "intellectuals" but not real ones.

Actually we consider the RAT party the home of liars, communists, rascists, murderers, criminals and perverts.

>> “She could start a war with the country of Africa without even knowing it is more impossible to win that war than our two current wars”

Haha. So much for “intellectual” university students ... I’d bet Palin would know that Africa is a continent.


The story that Palin called Africa a country is one of the myths that liberals are throwing around, if I'm not mistaken. So this genius author is trying to be sarcastic, I believe.

Why, exactly, do you support this woman?

She possesses the one quality that can't be taught. Common sense. And she's NOT an attorney, easy to look at too which doesn't hurt matters.

Hey, W’s IQ is at least 20 points above Obama’s. If Palin compares to W, she should do fine.

“Enthusiasm will get absolutely nothing done in international politics nowadays.”

So you telling me enthusiasm didn’t get Obummer elected?

It must be all those black intellectuals out there. 96% of black people voted for the douche, after all. Only around 60% of that particular demographic even finished high school, not to mention the semi-literate ones that are pushed through the public school system. God forbid anybody point that out. But those red state rednecks sure are dumb, huh?

Yeah,

And again with the oft-repeated meme, erroneously attributing to Sarah Palin the “see Russia from my house” snarky laugh line that emananated from Tina Fey’s lips on the SNL set.

Liberal-Progressives are so accustomed to wallowing in excrement they cannot even distinguish their own from that of other liberal-progressives, nor are they able to describe how the scent differs measurably from that of roses.

Someone - please fund a government program to buy the writer of this oozing detritus a clue!

[/sarcasm, given that I am certain such a program would not benefit him at all!]

A.A.C.

I don't usually post these screeds from the raccoon coat crowd, but this one was so over-the-top that I had to. Many of these college kids have no business anywhere near a campus, and he seems to be a perfect example.

Some day this young man will grow up and do a double head slap in amazement at his youthful ignorance, arrogance and immaturity.
