Conservative Resurgence? Huffington Blames the ‘Lizard Brains’ (videos at source)

As the intellectual Left struggles to understand why the majority of the country is standing athwart the Obama administration’s signature attempts at “fundamental transformation,” they’ve apparently agreed on one thing: we’ve all got lizard brains.

It turns out, according to people such as President Barack Obama and liberal media magnate Arianna Huffington, that many people are acting so irrationally because their brains are not fully developed and in times of uncertainty, we revert back to this “reptilian” way of thinking. (It couldn’t have anything to do with people actually disagreeing with them…)

During a recent appearance on The View, the president himself used this elitist line of thinking to try and explain the apparent rampant racism present in today’s society:

More recently, Huffington yesterday warned of the dangers of “lizard brains” in today’s electoral politics, blaming them for people’s so-called irrational support of Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell:

This is bizarre. I’m still stunned this is actually happening in our country.

They’re terrified.

Listening to the ditzy Huffington is like listening to endless episodes of “Green Acres”.

“....their brains are not fully developed....”

Kinda like Arianna, who doesn’t seem to have the capability of speaking English in a manner that people can understand.

How many years has she lived here?

Funny to hear the Sorosians going on about “reptilians”.

These are the people they make science fiction movies about.

This is just a fancy way of saying "You disagree with me, therefore you're stupid."

Which is not even an argument. It's nothing but narcissism and solopsism.

You people with the "not fully developed" lizard brains are less than human. Your opinions don't matter. Barrack and Arianna know what is best for you because they are fully developed superior beings. When they shove you into the crematoriums it will be with full (self)justification that you were less than human and didn't matter, and they were doing what was best for the State, and all mankind ...

I saw a bumper sticker next to an Obama sticker that said "When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross."

Bullshit.

Fascism is already in America and it is wholly owned by the progressive left. They have their state run industries, and they have their race theories and eugenics ... and totally dismissing half the country or more as "not fully developed" is easy for them.

So is this an upgrade from teabagging?

Yo, Huffpuff, keep it up, birdbrain.

Now we know for a certainty that the Left admits defeat.

When they got nuthin’ that's when the insults start.

Looking forward to Huffington calling us “poopypants” and crying, dropping to her knees with a baffled look that lacks all understanding crying out, “Why don't you worship me??!! Don't you rubes know that I have ALL the answers!!!”
