Beyond stupid

Tea Party Congressman Stockman and wack-a-doodle right-wing radio nut on Ebola. First Stockman believes Obama is going to infect the country then use his superpowers to take over the country. Then to top him the radio fruitcake goes on to say:

" Obama may infect soldiers with Ebola and use the outbreak to persecute Christians and “round up patriots.” Wiles also suggested that the epidemic may be a positive episode for the country since “Ebola could solve America’s problems with atheism, homosexuality, sexual promiscuity, pornography and abortion.”

Apparently he believes Ebola is the "magic desease" that is going to solve all the problems running around in his head - after all, it is from God and it will just wipe out all those pesky people he hates.

and round up patriots and put everybody in fema camps and . . .

They always have these dire predictions, but no reason for the treacherous action they warn about. Where's the rest of the story?

When will we, the Democrats or at least the progressives, come to realize that these assclowns can get away with saying this crap because there is an audience for it?

Earlier today a poster posited the question of whether we needed to start lying our asses off like they do. When there is no ability to reason, to think things through logically, to form one's own conclusion, what else is left?

Since every time somebody does research, they show that porn is a lot more widespread in red parts of the country.

He really believes President Obama will not step down at the end of his term. After I told him what an idiot he was being, I promised him I would help lead a violent revolution if indeed he did not. I'm 110% confident (using FAUX math) that my fatigues and other military gear will remain safely stored in the attic.
