why do republics hate education?

[spanone]

they call it pork

maybe because anyone educated makes them look like the idiots they are

[glowing]

1. An educated populace does not vote for the GOPpers

[SoCalNative]

11. They don't believe in the notion of PUBLIC education

and schools.

[sutz12]

2. Because educated people are less likely to fall for their crap?

Just sayin'. :shrug:

[Avalux]

3. Any spending to IMPROVE lives = pork.

Spending to kill people and blow shit up isn't. That's how Pukes roll.

[Raine]

4. Education = Knowledge

leaving no one to vote for reTHUGs. :think:

[rwheeler31]

5. They have to keep people stupid and selfish to make them

buy their BS.

[liberal N proud]

6. It is easy to manipulate the minds of those who are not educated

[Xenotime]

7. Because they themselves are idots. Evil knows evil.

[Ikonoklast]

8. They need the ignorant to be their foot soldiers.

The rank-and-file 30% who can't think for themselves need to be kept stupid.

9. The republican terrorist machine

The republican leadership rely on the exact same group of people the terrorist rely on to survive. Having a well educated and free society is the best weapon against such. So the republicans in this country use strong anti education tactics to deny both.

[GentryDixon]

10. Education is their enemy.

They cannot have people making informed decisions. Hate filled rhetoric works so well for them.
