How can GOP Myth #1 and GOP Myth #2 exist in the same universe?

2. The Republican Universe is Fractal
disjoint, random, and self-reflexive.




Cracked, actually.

5. It's simple, really
Back during the Carter administration Obama forced the banks to give bad loans to the minorities so that 20 years later the whole mortgage industry would collapse just in time to sink John McCain's victorious march to the White House. Did I mention he's a Muslin?

6. Well, you just know that if he was cooking up bombs with Bill Ayers back when he was 8
by the time he was a teenager he was already forcing banks to lend to insolvent minority borrowers.

Is there no end to the evil that man has done since he was even born in that place no one seems to really know of for sure?!?

8. They don't quite understand Mutually Exclusive
Remember these are the same people who could never vote for that Muslim cause he used to go to Church under a Radical Black Preacher.

9. Quite frankly the economy had nothing to do with McCain's loss
McCain lost because he is McCain - period!

Also Madame Moose terrified the .... out of people!

Voters were pleased with Obama's performance at the debates.

Period.

10. Apparently, most Republicans are excused from things like mutual exclusivity and privileged frames
of reference. Republicans are 1000% hypocrisy proof and honesty is not a real action for them but rather a measure that roughly corresponds with how "conservative" a politician is.

They also have a general form of release from history they don't agree with, facts, science, and logic.

13. see Clinton administration, see Bush administration
everything they said while Clinton was president, they then countered by saying the exact opposite once Bush go into office. Clearly their opinions have a life expectancy of about 3 minutes. The real question is why mass media continues to mass produce their opinions to the public?
