1. That's a rhetorical question, right?

6. Yes and no
Yes, because it's an easy way to show that they are idiots

No, because it's inconceivable to understand that there are so many of them

3. Let me count the ways...
On the other hand, I've got shit to do so I'll cut to the chase: they aren't they bright and they have few, if any, critical thinking skills.

15. Because They Are
Edited on Tue Sep-09-08 09:45 AM by stewert
They are the same idiots that watch O'Reilly and Hannity, if you want proof just go look at the hate mail I get from O'Reilly lovers. I would say 99% of it has multiple spelling errors, and most of what they claim is just wrong. The other day some right-wing O'Reilly lover wrote me to say that 60,000 scientists say Global Warming is not real, while only 900 scientists say it is real.

For instance, some 900 "scientists" at the United Nations "agree" that
global warming is a serious issue. Most of them never read the actual
UN report before it was issued. Some 60,000 degreed scientists from a
wide variety of backgrounds think that global warming is simply fear
mongering designed to get government grants and scare enough of the
population into demanding government do something about it. I don't
know about you, but I can neither create nor stop a thunderstorm, a
hurricane, a tornado or a volcanic eruption from spewing thousands of
tons of C2, SO2 and dirt into the atmosphere. Why should I think
government can change the temperature of the planet by 3 degrees? I
don't buy it.

1) Judy spelled O'Reilly (orieilly)

2) Of all the climatologists in the world, about 200 disagree that global warming is real, and those 200 are on the payroll of oil, gas, and coal companies.

The latest IPCC/UN report, which represents the consensus view on global warming, contains references to 4,617 scientists, not 900. Scientific American puts the number of global warming skeptics worldwide at perhaps 200 (out of thousands of climate scientists worldwide). A search of Wikipedia found less than 40 scientists who say global warming is not real.

they are basically trained robots.

21. "Now don't make me think! Just tell me what to do!"
John Dean wrote a terrific book about the repubicans
need for authority. They are mentally hardwired
to need to be told what to think and what to do.

It cuts down on the time spent thinking.
