Repubs: Impeach Obama-The Socialist Illegal-Who Needed Acorn To Steal The 2008 For Him
Edited on Mon Feb-01-10 09:54 PM by kpete
• 39% of Republicans want President Obama to be impeached.

• 63% think Obama is a socialist.

• Only 42% believe Obama was born in the United States.

• 21% think ACORN stole the 2008 election -- that is, that Obama didn't actually win it, and isn't legitimately the president, with 55% saying they are "not sure." This number is actually significantly lower than it was in a similar question from Public Policy Polling (D) back in November, which said that 52% of Republicans thought ACORN stole it. So does this mean Obama is gaining ground among Republicans? As it is, only just over 20% of Republicans will say that Obama actually won the election.

• 53% think Sarah Palin is more qualified than Obama to be president.

2. What do you expect?
Republicans who get all their information spoon feed to them via Fox Noise and Right-wing nut talk radio and who's next original thought will be their first are , without exception, suffering from a severe mental disorder. Once you take that into account it's easier to understand these people. Their political leaders are evil POS and the repug followers are several brain cells short of being morons. How else can you explain people who look at GW Bush and Sara Palin and see an intelligent person and worship a SOB like Ronald Reagan who began the destruction of this nation 30 years ago? Then they wake up every morning, turn on Glenn Beck, Limbaugh, and Hannity , grab their tea bags and try to derail the very people who are trying to help their asses and save what's left of the nation and protect the freedoms they claim to love. Then if they haven't gotten their daily dose of hate they top their day off with a little Savage Weiner ( and I do mean little weiner) and Bill-o. There is something very wrong with these people.

3. 5% are really smart...
Those are the super rich - who pull the wool over the eyes of the remaining dim-bulb 95%, causing them to vote against their better interests.

12. It's more that the smart ones are now calling themselves independents
All that's left behind is the terminally deluded.

4. They don't even know what socialism is.
If they understood socialism and understood Obama, they would see that he is clearly NOT a socialist.

As far as stealing elections, Republicans know all about that industry. They are wrong in this case, but at least they know a lot about the ins-and-outs of stealing elections.

7. It must be Limbaugh or the other talk radio buffoons drilling that word into them
I don't see how Obama could be classified as a socialist by any stretch of the term. But the right wing has chosen the words socialism and socialist to be in their lexicon of hot-button fear words, even though I don't know if they've ever explained to their listeners what those words actually mean. They have just made them a major part of their vocabulary and attached a fear factor to them. I bet only 1% of their listeners could even state what socialism is. But you hear and read that word a lot now, especially in reference to Obama and the current Democrats. It's another one of the giant lies that is so widespread and so frequent that people just assume it must be the truth due to that alone.

8. Well, we have to remember only 20% of the country identifies themselves as Republican
So, this is 39% of 20% who want Obama impeached, 63% of 20% who think he is a socialist (we should be so lucky), 42% of 20% believe he was born in the US, etc...

13. 100% are playing hacky sack with that shared brain.
Yes, let's all listen to the party of job offshoring, war corporatism, "End Times" decision making and brilliant ideas like that one about taking Social Security and dumping it into the Stock Market in 2005. Wow, what a happy ending THAT would've been!

Buncha dumbshits is what they are.
