Why are intelligent, seemingly well-educated people still a supporter of George Bush and are Republicans?

Question

intelligence and republicans - an oxymoran or a self-canceling phrase?

Answer 1

Ha ha ha...it's the religious right wackos who vote Republican....they worry about God, guns, and gays while Democrats were concerned with education, health care, and the economy.

I guess flag burning and gay marriage is more important to Republicans than securing our border right?

Answer 2

He did get elected president two times and also you probably did not. You infer stuttering as a trademark of intelligence at the same time as in fact it really is a speech obstacle. considering the Al Qaeda isn't one business organization yet many terror communities appearing less than one banner at the same time as reachable, Iraq without question replaced into appropriate to Al Qaeda(it really is semantic). finding out on key mis conversing moments does not show lack of intelligence: i.e. Obama at a loss for words an incubator with a breathalyser in a unmarried speech. Attacking Iraq replaced into the excellent decesion we would have made. Osama Bin weighted down now might want to be acquainted with we are not a paper tiger: if he's alive, he's residing in a cave someplace. BTW we've not been attacked considering 9/11.

Answer 3

You have some waking up to do. I know you are all mostly children and have no comprehension of politics outside of your recent timespan.

Do you have any idea how long the Democrats were in control of both the House and Senate before 1994? For half a century this party had full power to create whatever laws they chose, and fix all the problems of the world.

For half a century that sucked people into voting for them because they 'cared' about education, environment, workers rights, healthcare, minority rights, the list is endless.

During that 50 years, how many of those problems did they solve? They poured trillions of dollars into the problems, but what were the results?

The Democrats are the party of judge me not by my outcome but by my intent. They try to do good. Clinton "never worked harder in his life" but they accomplish NOTHING.

Open your eyes and your minds, see the big picture, understand there is a difference between caring and feeling, vs. thinking and doing.

Answer 4

Well educated and intellegent people who are of Republican beliefs only hold a different opinion then Democrats. They see the situation different'y then the democratic perspective.

For example, Republicans may focus more on foreign policy rathen then domestic because they are more concerned with international and domestic security.

Democrats believe they can do more to further education and health care but don't encourage as much foreign policy.

This is not a simple question and there is much more to it then a simple awnser.

Answer 5

really? so only 26% of america (the amount that supports that ********) are well-educated and intelligent? isnt that also the governments fault that that small of a percentage of the nation is intelligent?i believe the intelligent ones that think about things instead of reacting on a 12 year old grudge because someone made fun of his daddy are the other 74% the nation that want him out of office. dickweed.

Answer 6

If you cannot spell, please don't publish your publicize your political views. It's just ridiculous. It's like when Dan Quayle said "potato" needs an "e" on the end of it.

I know the liberals jumped all over that. Not to mention they also take a magnifying glass to everything Bush says. Too bad they have double standards about themselves.

oxymoron: liberal who thinks they are intelligent, but says "oxymoran".

Answer 7

Republicans are generally people who work for a living. The Democratic base consists mainly of poor, uneducated people who depend on the government.

Oh, and it's spelled "oxymoron"

Answer 8

I agree with I_Don't_Know . . . . .intelligent democrats is an oxymoron. Intelligent and well educated people are mostly Republicans. And not so well educated ppl are democrats

Answer 9

Truth of the matter the average person who votes for Bush, knows little about current affairs. The ones who are smart and vote for Bush usually have something to gain for their vote, right Halliburton?

Answer 10

Perhaps because most people see it as either Republican or Democrat, Bush or Kerry(Gore).

When people are choosing between a douchebag and a $h!t sandwich, it's easy to rip on those who chose the opposite of what you chose. Just as it's as easy for them to rip on you for your choice.
