he probably does.

I have a couple of relatives like that. We all do, I guess.

He thinks Obama is Muslim.

After Charlottesville, felt it necessary to point out that Sen. Byrd was KKK and was HRC's "mentor". As if that balanced Fred Trump's KKK arrest and his odious son's defense of Klansmen as "Good People".

Brainwashed by Fox, WLW, and German-Catholic Westside Cincinnati.

Besides the veritable fascist revival we've been seeing, Faux News and hate radio are responsible for so many interpersonal conflicts - including family disputes (the saddest of all).

I once lost a close friend that way. We got along great; talked about everything. One day though, he parroted one Limbaugh tall tale too many - and I lost it.

It was during the Clinton impeachment, on top of that, and b/c I lived in south Orange County (where 70%+ were howling for the Clintons' heads despite the roaring prosperity in OC at the time) I was really sick of it.

In hindsight, I should have counted backwards from ten, as Jefferson advised; but being 20 at the time, my restraint wasn't what it is now (I think!).

All my best to you and yours. Trying times, these.

with your newly found "restraint," but I'm thinking that your overall health is much better with your new circle of friends!

I won't bring up a political discussion, but if (when) they do, piss off.

Of please, Gaia, strike into the universe a great and vengeful blow that smites the usurper and his evil minions!

Ring any bells?

And Bush, from a San Diego GOP fundraiser?

Nah. I'm drawing a blank here.

"Dubya who? Never heard of him. Sure, I remember President Bush. One termer right after St. Ronaldus Maximus. Had a son, you say? Nope, can't say that rings a bell. At all. NO, dammit! I said NO! Stop asking. I don't know what you're talking about. Just shut up. No, YOU shut up! Fake news!"

Sure. But between his wars and his collapse, he's definitely a gift that keeps on giving.

The number of people who think Obama did the bailouts is astounding. He did extend the AIG bailout and, of course, made the highly difficult and successful decision to save GM.

No W never happened and if he did it was Obama's fault.

One minute they are saying he is incompetent, they next they are saying he is a God that can do things as President 3 years before he takes office. Smh.

There aren't enough facepalms for this..there never will be..

we can't let "truth" and "facts" get in the way!

(sorry, had to use the "facepalm" anyway!)

there are no words for their fuckery.... just expressions, better yet gesticulations...like giving them the middle finger. *SMH*

I learn something new from your threads every day.

just to watch our heads explode. I know many of them are woefully uneducated, but please. No one is that stupid.

This is just them deliberately fucking with us because really, does Average Joe Republican really read polls?

willfully ignorant and ignorance is no excuse under the law!

is out to prove that LAW DOESN'T MATTER!

I know I'm not the only one who's heard this - and much, much worse -
first or second hand from an everyday Republican voter. They were adamant about it too.

I hear what you're saying. The poll showing 29% of Republicans believing that may indeed be a exaggerated - but probably not by much.

"Because the thing is, bots may be the ones mainly spreading this fake information online, but real people are reading it and accepting it as truth."

People, it's been said, have the governments they deserve.

Well, right-wingers anyway.
