    The most beloved, admired, and popular leaders for Republicans in the last two generations have been Donald Trumpf, Sarah Palin, George Dumbya Bush, and Bedtime for Bonzo.

    Nitwits, half wits, and barely articulate numbskulls all...by presidential standards.

    We have enough data now to conclusively say that, in general, Republicans literally admire, hold in utmost esteem, and worship ignorance and dull-wittedness.

    It's almost as if they fear and loathe intelligence and those who have it. Kind of strange, since history has shown over and over that the most venial of human beings don't tend to be hugely intelligent. Instead, they possess the ability to mesmerize and convince followers of their genius and righteousness.

    When one thinks about the history of conservatism, there is a theme here.

    Throughout the arc of history, and even in to today, conservatives and reactionaries have always resisted the education of peasants, serfs, blacks, women. They fought tooth and nail to keep literacy, education, and scholarship limited to the elite, the gentry, the monied classes.
    Because conservatives knew full well that education would lead the "underserving" masses to start asking questions, to start to think about liberty, to start thinking about equality, and to cross-examine the prevailing socio-economic status quo of the day.

    Well, that's my story and I am sticking with it!

    Which is what makes it all the more astounding when today's Reichwingers quote the Founding Fathers as though they were gods, when in fact they were radical liberals wanting to overthrow the way things had always been done. Some of them are so stupid that they think that voting in an inexperienced, incompetent TV game show host is doing the same thing that the Revolution accomplished.

    RINO is the term for that rare Republican who puts country above party.

    Right wing = lie, lie, and lie some more.

    He didn’t want Palin for his running mate, he wanted Joe Lieberman. He was talked into Palin by Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace. They weren’t allowed at his funerals, either.

    Link to prove that he " didn’t want Palin for his running mate, he wanted Joe Lieberman. He was talked into Palin by Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace."

    If he had had Lieberman he likely would have won.

    I wonder about that as well, but thankfully, he went with Palin.

    Apparently though one night the gods were drinking and flinging peanut shells at Earth. One of them said, "Hey, let's fuck with that smart-ass piece right there, the one that thinks they're the boss of everyone. Let's give them a cretin for a leader and see if that doesn't take 'em down a peg or two." Being well into the mead by then, the rest of the gods laughed their asses off and agreed.

    And lo, so it was that in the Earthly year of 2008, a major political party in that smart-ass piece chose a cretin for a VP. Thankfully for the smart-ass country, the smarmy goddess of wet blankets, DebDowner DarkCloud, was hiding behind the bar and heard the gods' secret plan, and thwarted it. Thus the smart-ass country was graced with eight years of classy, civil, intelligent, and rational leadership. The gods, however, will never be thwarted for long. Loki sent DD DC to live in the body of a NYC sewer rat, where she remains to this day. Now they were free to send the Cretin of all Cretins!

    And this is why Trump.

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    lol, prob why she didn't make the invite list.....

    She did do a lot of whining, blaming the campaign(indirectly John) for all of her ills but never seemed to thank them for 15 mins of fame & reality tv breaks...
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
