It's natural whenever your candidate doesn't win to call the electorate stupid...

It's also odd - and frankly, hilarious - that the same dupes who spent seven years trying to terrify us with stories of invading muslim hordes, iranian nuclear weapons, and Al Qaeda terrorists (and that if you criticized the government of George Bush, you were a terrorist-enabler), now "suddenly" have decided that the duly elected american government, and those that voted for them are the "greatest threat".


My position is the same as it's always been. The confluence of corporate power, wall street bankers, and their bought and paid for politicians, are the most prominent threats to a functioning democratic nation. I've never considered a small band of islamic criminal thugs to be the most dire threat to the United States.

I think the electorate has always been stupid, whether it elected good or bad presidents. The elections of Andrew Jackson proved long ago just how stupid and pathetic the American electorate is.

Agree completely. Add a confused populace and economic turmoil and you have the makings of bad times.



"The 20th century has been characterized by three developments of great political importance: The growth of democracy, the growth of corporate power, and the growth of corporate propaganda as a means of protecting corporate power against democracy." Alex Carey


"What improves the circumstances of the greater part can never be regarded as an inconveniency to the whole. No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable." Adam Smith 'The Wealth of Nations,' Book I Chapter VIII

Conservatives, bar none. They are a greater threat to this nation than terrorists.
