how dumb is the typical Bush supporter ?

Question

How stupid does a person have to be to believe this stupid moron Bush is actually a good President?

Answer 1

The typical Bush supporter doesn't have a mind of their own. They like hearing that Bush was going to lower taxes and shrink government. Too bad it was just a bunch of lies.

Answer 2

I am not sure if their choice to select Bush is the result of an intellectual blunder as it is an emotive decision. Most people I encounter, who voted for Bush cannot articulate why his policy making would be better than the two opponents he faced off against in 2000 and 2004. What got Bush reelected in 2004 is a post 9/11 culture that was rife with fear, and the fact that America was seduced by Bush's good ole boy country charm.

Selecting the President is rarely about choosing the best candidate on the basis of that candidate’s acumen. Generally speaking the average US citizen's decision-making process is more visceral. That is were Bush's congenial country personality won him votes from people

Answer 3

In another question of yours, you ask if Bush or Cheney was the mastermind behind 9/11. Now who's dumb again? Smart enough to organize 9/11, and somehow blame it on a group of terrorists, but yet him and all his supporters are stupid?
FYI, I am most definitely not stupid, and yet I support President Bush. Even my anti-Bush friends admit that I have an excellent argument, and my intelligence is not diminished in the slightest since I voted Republican.
You really want to know why I support the President? I'd love to know why you don't. Please contact me.

Answer 4

If you think about it idiot. You would know that Pres. Bush is doing a great job right now. I am a Bush supporter and if you don't really like what he is doing than get out of the ******* U.S. of A. and try to find somewhere better else to live. But i bet you won't be able to b/c you will still be bitching about where you are at. I bet you would still be bitching about the person that was in the W. House whether it not be Pres. Bush. Or if you voted for Kerry than i bet that you would still be bitching about what he is doing just like a whole bunch of other people out there that are with you.

Answer 5

The blind leading the blind!

People who often feel strongly about an issue and back it so forcefully will tend to remain fixed to the issue even if the concept is found to be completely flawed. Reason being, that if people are to admit that a concept, issue, or subject that they so strongly supported were flawed then it would be an admission that they were wrong for supporting it. So why is it so hard for people to admit when they are wrong?

I have come to believe that our society encourages fluidity, herd mentality, politically correctness to the extreme that it is now seen as impolite to disagree with others. Psychologists call this a "comfort zone" bias based on research suggesting that breaking from the status quo is, for most people, emotionally uncomfortable. It requires increased responsibility and opening oneself up to criticism. The desire to conform to the beliefs and behaviors of others is recognized by psychologists as a fundamental human trait. It's reinforced by fear of regret--a disproportionate concern over being placed in a situation in which it is apparent to others that we have failed.

Another point is our attachment to emotional response as oppose to a rational one. An example might be on your TV any given night during a news broadcast in which the commentator asks the guest, "How do you FEEL" instead of "What do you THINK". The first time I realized I had heard this was the day after September 11th when on CNN, Paula Zahn asked a guest, "How bad do you feel about this", and needless to say I wanted to hurl at such a stupid question. One of the critical elements in our past educational system was that of logic and rational argument, which seems to escape more and more people each day. I am reminded of a scene from Gone with the Wind; during a party the men and women divide and go about their own discussions. The men are standing around with glasses of brandy and cigars discussing the upcoming Civil War and its potential consequences and then I remember the saying, "It's not polite to discuss, religion, race, or politics." I can't help but think I might know how Galileo felt when he was imprisoned for claiming that the earth revolved around the sun.

However I will admit that all the blame should not fall upon the shoulders of one man, as no man could bear such a burden. The whole of the Bush administration should be treated as a single entity, as though all the individuals were just mere parts of a greater animal. This beastly animal was not the product of evolution, but a creation of a hideous monster from some genetics lab that was seeking the perfect killing machine - a creature programmed not to feel compassion, admit fault, or to allow rational argument to stand in the way of its goal of global hegemony. This neoconservative version of a modern-day Frankenstein has but a single purpose and that is the institution of a Platonist oligarchy with no less than global aspirations.

Neo-conservatism is eroding the foundations of the Republican Party with its Liberal Trotskyite belief system, and if it is not stopped soon, it will burst the party like the levees of New Orleans. I half believe the biggest reason for lack of opposition from the Democratic Party is that they don't know how to attack a system in which they too embrace, and does in fact share many of the same expansionist policies. The only real opposition to this parasitic infestation is coming from conservative Republicans, conservative Democrats, and Libertarians, and currently this falls far short of voices needed to drown out the joyous cries of Dr. Frankenstein's "It's Alive".

Answer 6

As stupid as Bush.

Answer 7

So dumb that when one of them switches to be a dumbocrat, it actually raises the IQ of both parties. Figure that one out, smart guy (if you can, Id be suprised given your questions if you can). How is it at Hamburger University anyway, you managing to stay off academic probation? Remember, do well, and maybe you can someday say to me "Would you like fries with that, Sir"?

Answer 8

About half as stupid as the typical Clinton supporter.

Answer 9

Judging from all the questions you've asked and answered, you seem to have an unhealthy fascination with George W. Bush.

Answer 10

Either that name is a lie or you're the most intelligent 8 year old on the planet. I'll go with the first option since that fits your ideology better. Grow up.
