Hope that helps.

Until that changes many of them will always vote Republican.

Also, too many don't like (or have a good opinion of) people that aren't white, and they will NOT vote for the same party that THEY vote for.

I wish that weren't the damn truth.

And Libruls are trying to take my guns away!

And what's with the "ALERT" flashing up there? Someone got a relative in this video?

Great to have you join us! It's really ridiculous. And saddest and most discouraging of all - THESE are the people who will make damn sure to get to the polls and vote. I wish more of us voted - to cancel them out. It just grates on me to think - OUR side, that isn't infected and rendered mentally impaired by watching Pox Noise, those of us among liberals who keep ourselves well-informed, believe in and value science, and appreciate the much-needed separation of church and state, OURS are the ones who are more likely to stay home.

And now that I've written that and really looked at it, I must admit that sadly it does make me start wondering - "well, then, exactly WHO are the stupid ones?"

These aren't the people we need to mock, or worry about.

And it's kind of beneath us to take cheap and easy shots at people with bad teeth and messy yards.

Not funny, DU.

We need to call out the real evil people, like the Kochs, and embrace these people because they, too, are victims.

I hate that I have to explain this.

And I dont know how to get to him, ever, at all.

I dont know any other way than to outlive him, do you?

And for those that claim it was done without any intent to pick the most egregiously pathetic people there or to make fun of this poor man's ignorance and lack of health care, well, it happened.

Maybe we don't know how to reach him, but for folks to laugh and pretend we are so different is what is really depressing.

great harm.

I dont have the answer, just get angry sometimes

but, and perhaps it's my jaded side here, I do think there are many who laugh over this video. It so tempting to have people who are ideologically opposed to us be toothless and ignorant and easy to condemn.

I just hope that if we don't know how to reach them, someone who does will step up to try. The best people to do this are the people who grew up right there and have an understanding of their community. If we keep lumping people into groups based on where they are from, we're defeating that aim.

And for anyone to act superior about this or say that these people somehow have it coming is very sad.

We need to work with people, even if it's only successful 1/10 of the time.

They can carry on a conversation and with patience can be taught to come to different conclusions.

Using facts and kindness most of them can be convinced of a few things, away from the shit they get from Fox.

I don't see that as the cause of the problem, I see them as victims.

And I beg to differ. The Kochs may be evil, but you would be surprised at the evil that these kinds of bigots will do in the name of God.

Interviewer: Voting republican hasn't worked for you.

what the fuck happened to our country. Its amazing how stupid people are.

Its old. From back in 2008. Some of Sarah Palin's biggest supporters.

Good to have you with us! What you see is what you get. They tend to be poorly educated and gullible, and willfully ignorant - and they're undoubtedly kept that way by loyally watching only Pox Noise. As long as that condition continues, that's how they'll be. They'd probably refuse to believe it, and go ahead and drink it. As some have said here - "the stupid is strong with this one, Luke."

Most of my family. (Huge family, 11 uncles and about 100 cousins) Are VERY conservative. They all tend to have 1 thing in common, RACISM. I have heard almost every rethug in my family use the n word a few times. And say disgustingly racist things about President Obama, and those on welfare. I have an uncle that actually believed that the economy would collapse and there would be no more food and people would resort to cannibalism because of Obama. The funny thing is he was a huge supporter of Mccain, Romney, Bush and any other rethuglican candidate who would have destroyed the economy. I also have an uncle who's wife is so anti abortion that she would make her daughters give births to a rapists baby if her daughter was to be raped. Here's the thing about her: I knew that if she found out I was a democrat she would have literally cut my head off. So I pretend to be a right winger around her and her family.
It is AMAZING to hear the nutty things they say. So I guess you could call me a blue fish in a sea of red ones in my family. But I live in a blue state so I have friends who share my views.

with nearly 200 first and second cousins). They are why I tell people I KNOW these teaparty types intimately! Some on DU can not even imagine how truly deep they are down into that dark hole...Its completely scary....they are utterly brainwashed and they represent a huge chunk of the populace. They desperately need deprogramming....and I think its dangerous to have that many people so unreachable.

He'd rhapsodize about "I love a cowboy" when bush2 was pResident. That was a nauseating one, considering dubya was about as far from being anything remotely like a real "cowboy" as I am. Farther, even, because I'm not afraid of horses as he is. Then later, this individual would eagerly circulate the "my rights are being violated because I'm not allowed to say the n-word" email. Ever see that one? GEEZ, Mom, you're friends with this person?

He really believed this shit. And he influenced her thinking as well. YOIKS. It IS dangerous - and not a little bit scary - to have that many people so far out on the loony edge and embracing that mindset so thoroughly that they are indeed unreachable.

I have always known that republicans are stupid.

Glad you're here! If anyone needs further proof, there's another thread here that tells us that the marvelous Mensa-member louie gohmert fancies himself fit to challenge boner for Speaker of the House. Lord Have Mercy...

Yes, its a mad, mad, mad world we live in under repub control.

You might get all excited, only to find out it is the North. The GOP loves their ignorant/arrogant voters! Sure nuff!

There are enough red states that they could call a Constitutional Convention and pass an amendment to allow any state that wants, to secede. Not one shot would have to be fired.

Then we could get those states off the dole which is paid for by the blue states.

Vampires? how did stupid republicans become vampires?

But you know what? I could go to any state and find someone just as ignorant and living in conditions much the same as that poor guy. The problem with Mississippi is that we have an over-abundance of people like that, and hardly anyone seems to care enough to do something about it. In fact, the people in power here benefit from all of the ignorance here, so they have no incentive to fix the problem.

Ignorance is chipping away the foundation of this country because we have people in power who benefit from spreading it. That's why it's so important to choose a government that's truly interested in educating the citizens. I'm not talking about Common Core bullshit, I mean real education that can help the students and the human race as a whole move forward. Until we have a government like that in power, expect to see more and more people like this man.

Two kinds of republicans, rich ones and dumb ones. I'll bet he appreciates the dumb ones voting in his best interests.

when the GOP is pushed into nominating a black female to compete against Michelle Obama (or Sasha or Malia) running for president? Where are these racist/sexist/chucklenuts going to go? Who will they vote for then?
