I remember when GW was running against Gore and they used the same garbage.
Gore had lousy grades
Gore almost didn’t graduate from Yale.
Gore Entered Law School - flunked out.
Gore Entered Divinity School - got kicked out.
GW not only had better grades than Gore - GW also has an MBA from Harvard.
Hmmmm ..?? Even I graduated from a divinity school.
But .. Remember what Rush always tells us - “You know who the libs are afraid of by who they attack the most.”
Obama is scared of Perry. Perry has a record of drawing in businesses and creating jobs. Perry balances the Texas budget without a state income tax. Obama can't balance a budget with record tax revenues coming in.
I guarantee the first thing Perry will do when he's elected is rewrite rules for the EPA that allow us to get our own natural resources and from that point on the economy will only get better.
Mr. Martin regularly appears on CNN, MSNBC, CSPAN, NPR, ABC and CBS to discuss politics.
Once again, the left falls face-forward lurching for the argument that the Republican is stupid.
The left has become a mockery of itself, yet they don’t see that yet.
Is that one of those correspondence on-line colleges? I guess that puts Martin in the elite of reporters who consider themselves much smarter then the average person and therefore qualified to judge other people's intelligence.
“Projection” - That’s actually a clinical term for a person who projects upon his enemy the very thing he is already doing or plans on doing.
Charles Krauthammer - a phychiatrist by trade - gave that description on TV of the liberals.
I totally understand this because I was married to a person who used projection all the time. Scary people.
“The parrot” has always been my thought when some lib cites Rachel Maddow’s PhD. She merely regurgitated what her instructors wanted to hear. Intelligent she is not.
It need not be an enemy. It can be anyone. And projection is often what we are feeling or thinking.
We all do it to some extent, some of us more than others. And it's the basic psychological mechanism behind paranoia.
As Ann Coulter has pointed out in one of her books all GOP presidents and candidates are characterized over and over as being “DUMB” by the liberal establishment
As opposed to the communist in the White House, bent on the destruction of America?
Obama, your “well spoken smart guy” can’t seem to figure out how to fix the economy because he has no interest in fixing the economy!
This meem that it was too broken to fix in 30 months has worn a bit thin.
Either he doesn’t know how to fix it or he doesn’t want it fixed.
So, I’ll take the guy with the drawl and the record of creating jobs.
(oh, I know, we’re supposed to believe the Perry isn’t responsible for that job growth, it’s just that Texas is the only state in the nation where Obama’s policies created jobs......)
Rhetorical question: To think otherwise would be racist!
There’s a real schism in this country between those that put value in status and those that value results. What school you went to, are you properly “credentialed”? This is what they want, not competence.
These people don’t care about common sense, they’re more impressed by what a person says and how they say it as opposed to what they do.
These people applauded mightily at everything Obama says, but don’t care about his horrible management of the country, just as long as he reads the right things from his teleprompter as he spends this country into oblivion.
I am not sure about Perry and his RINOishness. But now that he is getting Borked, he moves up a few notches in my book.
When Bill Clinton said that deficits cause inflation, the press and Democrats didn’t treat him as part of some lunatic fringe for caring about inflation and wanting to balance the budget or having a strong, stable dollar and tight Fed.
We saw gas prices fall from $1.10 when Reagan started in 1981 —down to 89 cents in 1998.
But since Bernanke replaced Greenspan in 2006, and since Democrats and the press started supporting big borrowing and deficit spending——we’ve seen gas prices high, despote lack of demand in the United States and worldwide.....proving that when government tries to “do something” to help——they often make things worse.
This recession would have been OVER like the Savings and Loan crisis recession ended——had the government handled it as well as Greenspan and HW Bush did in 1990——and despite how the the media trashed Bush. Bush thought Greenspan was too slow to cut interest rates in response to his tax increase.........but look at how bad aggressive monetary policy has turned this economy-—showing that being too loose in the recession is worse than being too tight with credit.
“Can I get me a huntin’ license heyah?” - John F. Kerry, described as “too intelligent to be president” by the press.
Thus it will always be, since Leftists define intelligence as "being able to see that Socialism is THE WAY". When somebody disagrees with them, they dismiss him as being "ignorant". When that doesn't work, they declare him evil.
According to a 1990 interview with Vanity Fair. Obama learned this at Harvard.
... Barack Obama has a game plan: he wants to tackle the quagmire of America’s inner cities. Federal money alone won’t do it, he argues. The deeper problem is that “those communities are unorganized. We need to get more people planning.” For preparation, Harvard Law School is a “perfect place to examine how the power structure works.It gives you a certain language.” When he’s fluent, he’ll be able to translate the language of the streets into the language of the Establishment, and vice versa. The sense of mission derives in part from his experiences in the Third World.
But .. you are correct, it does go along with paranoia - and therefore - the person they attack is to them “the enemy”.
I’ve more often than not seen it as a direct attack verbally upon another person .. while if they had been just thinking about it or feeling bad .. they would not have necessarily voiced that opinion.
I don’t agree that we “all” do it to some extent. The reason I believe that is because not “all” people have a psychological disorder of that magnitude.
As for the liberals .. they appear to be wired that way.
