WARNING-Projectile Vomit Alert! Wow.... The latest snicker-snicker, we are smarter than you! justification from the liberal left. How many of our tax dollars went in to paying for this "study"?

The name of the blog is "Americans Against the Tea Party", and lest you dismiss it, their Facebook page has 377,000+ followers. To contrast, the Free Republic Facebook page has 4,400 followers.

And we wonder WHY we lost the information war to the radical left??

And you wonder where The Daily Show gets its material to feed to the Low-Info voters??

Sure, sure. Just explain why the majority of engineers (you know, those guys that actually design things) seem to be more on the right side of politics.

Not "scientists" that work in liberal universities dependent on government grants, but the guys that really design things that the real world uses.

You know, like airplanes, cars, etc.

Liberals should ask themselves:'Would I rather fly in an airplane designed by a liberal, or by a conservative?"

Might be a fascinating experiment.

“According to a recent study out of Virginia Tech, a team of scientists have found that the way a person responds to disgusting images can reveal their political leanings.”

Is there nothing more disgusting, repulsive than a Left Winger?

So if you show a liberal a picture of a really cute unicorn doing something adorable, they love it. Maybe because they think it might be real.

How much federal tax dollars went to this drivel? I bet most of the money was spent on beer.

The title is sensationalist and is probably as far as most Liberals would have the concentration span to read. In the body of the text there is no proof of the titles assertion all you are able to say is that conservatives and liberals respond differently to questions after viewing certain images.

Of course that will not matter this will already be considered by lefties as absolute rock solid science which will be repeated over and over again until no-one will be allowed to dispute it’s veracity - gee wizz where has that been done before? Global Warming maybe?

Researchers at the University of Nebraska conducted a similar experiment in which they: “showed liberals and conservatives pleasant (cute rabbit, beach ball) and unpleasant (crashed car, person getting beaten) pictures and followed their eye movements. Conservatives tended to spend more time focusing on the negative images and became more physiologically aroused by them, while liberals focused on the more positive images. The researchers suggest that this is in line with conservative and liberal politics whereby conservatives are focused on protection from threats, and liberals focus on a positive future.”

A more logical suggestion is that liberals ignore unpleasant realities and live in a utopian dream world. But we didn't need a study to tell us that.

The Soviets disparaged anyone who disagreed with them as mentally ill or deficient, too. They called it “philosophical intoxication.” Of course, there were very serious consequences that accompanied the diagnoses.

Well, if this is all true, then conservatives deserve to be the next protected class. How dare you make a movie filled with messages insulting my under-evolved brain?

Ah......the. Peter Principal applies to intellect as well.

Deep collectivist thinkers have rendered themselves fit for no purpose. ..except collapsing civilization....and exterminating mildly cognizant DOERS OF MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL WORK.

Hold m’ beer.

Who Really Care? answered this years ago. Not only are conservatives far more charitable with contributions and volunteer time, they even donate more blood. In Europe, where the social democratic model is well entrenched, charity is virtually unknown.

The takeaway message for Election Day? “Think, don’t just react,” Montague said. “But no one needs neuroscience to know that’s a good idea.”

It amazes me that a scientific study has a "take away message for Election Day" and that message is "think, don't just react." Gee. Since those primitive conservatives are the ones who just "react", I wonder what the message really is.
