Conservatives usually fall into three classes...greedy/ignorant/naive. The greedy are often not stupid at all but quite intelligent. Look at Ben Stein. They just don't give two shits about the rest of us as long as they "got theirs". The naive believe all the B.S. that the RW spews, ie., everyone has an equal shot in the U.S., blah blah blah. So stupid? No. Just...naive. The third are the people who get their news from pop culture and just don't care enough to search deeper. Stupid? No...just uninformed.

Thread the other night talked about how GOP counts on their supporters being stupid-definitely something to that, Unfortunately, that seems to be 51% of American voters.

I've seen a couple of examples of ultra-conservative evangelical christians recently, and I have got to say, they scare the hell out of me! Currently trying to determine if my brother is one of them. To be continued...
