Everybody is part of the herd of ignorance. Children hating Bush because their parents do, why so blind?

Question

Nobody knows what the hell they are talking about anymore. It's so cool to hate Bush lately, its just as much of a trend as Prada bags and Gucci. I go to high school, and to hear these kids debate is the most moronic sound known to human ears. They dont know what they're talking about because they get their half-assed, lame brained opinions from the media. Give me a good reason why you "hAtE bUsH cUz He Is A bIg DoO dOo FaCeD mOnKeY tHaT yOu LoOsElY bAsE yOuR oPiNiOnS oFf Of". And sure Im just a kid, but maybe it takes a kid to see how stupid everyone is, go ahead and insult me because of this question, I expect it from the less intellectual people....

Answer 1

Absolutely right. No one hates Bush because he's sent 2500 kids to their deaths, or because he's killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi's, or because he's in the hop-pocket of the oil companies and the military industrial complex. No one hates him because he's made America into a mockery of civil and human rights, or because he's a moron or because he doesn't give a rats pattuti about America or Americans.

They hate them because their parents hate him.

Answer 2

You're right, a lot of people just bash Bush because it is the trendy thing to do. Some of these kids' parents may actually know what they are talking about, their kids probably didn't understand or get the whole story. A lot of conservatives do the same thing ahd have their opinions fed to them by a loudmouth conservative demogogue on the radio. So the real issue is people not thinking on both sides of the issue. Right and left wings are still part of the same beast. Bush bashing is so popular know because the current administration is inept, corrupt, and totally negligent. I'll list some examples for you Iraq preparation and winning the peace, Katrina response, odd supreme court nominations, politically motivated US Attourney firings, Neglecting the war in Afghanistan, weakening the military, destroying any good faith and confidence the world had in the USA. That enough examples for you. Now do your homework and look up the facts on each of those and I think you'll join the ignorant masses, but you'll have made and intelligent choice. Don't be anti-intellectual and emotional, be an intellectual and do your reasearch then you'll see if you aren't the blind one.

Answer 3

Ignorance is bliss?

Seriously, it is hard work to support your own opinion and people assume the opinions spoken by their party have to be right. Unfortunately that's not the case.

I'm a moderate Democrat and do not like Bush for a variety of reasons but also realize that my party places blame on Bush for things that are not his fault.

It's easier to place blame than it is to accept blame. My party has no problem placing it but seems to vanish when it's time to accept any.

Continue being a free thinker as you cannot go wrong thinking for yourself.

Answer 4

I take it you are repeating the rhetoric you hear from your parents or what ever adult you respect the most. So you are just as blind, dear.

"You have received a message from another user!

Subject: well actually....

Message: My parents neglect me and beat me, I don't look up to anyone older than me since most of my family is dead anyways, the question was "give me a good reason why you hate bush" the rest of it was just fluff. Read a little more deeply you democrap"

Actually I touched at the first question you asked 'Why so blind' by stating that you are just as blind. I don't give a rats behind about Prada and Gucci. I don't let the media tell me what to think and I don't believe as my parents do. I'm sure that they are voting Hillary and I can't stand her. So like I said to you, just because I'm not republican doesn't make me a democrat. Try reading the response a little more deeply and maybe you can find an answer within yourself.

Answer 5

I absolutely agree with you, as a college student it is just as bad. All you can do is learn to ignore these people and realize that some people will be ignorant no matter what you tell them.


When you are talking to someone give them this analogy:

There are 4 people sitting in a room. 2 of them have a clue what is going on, 1 of them has an idea but doesn't really get it, and 1 of them knows what is going on and understands it. Which one are you?

The sad fact is, being informed requires a lot of hard work and thinking, it will always be EASIER to be ignorant and that is what you are going to learn over and over again as you go through life.

Answer 6

Im dont hate Bush ...I hate hypocritical liberals .Until then, I dont care what they say .
Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan, across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they?

And I'm supposed to
care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it wet?...Well, I don' t. I don't care at all.

I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11.

I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime in Saudi
Arabia.

I'll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashed throat.

I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques.

I'll
care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs.

I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.

In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don't care.

When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college-hazing incident, rest assured: I don't care.

When I see a wounded terrorist, get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank: I don't care.

When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts: I don't care.

And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran. " Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and -you guessed it - I don't care! ! ! ! !

Answer 7

If you are as intelligent as you think you are, you would be willing to be open minded and accept others opinions for what they are, opinions.
If mr. bush is hated, there are many good reasons which I'm sure you've heard.
If mr. bush is loved, that is proof of the "herd of ignorance". He's done so much damage that it will take years to bring our country back to where it was. Respected in the eyes of most other countries. Maybe someday you will have the wisdom to see both sides of the issues.

Answer 8

First of all, as I always say, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Everyone has one and everyone thinks theirs doesn't stink. Second, obviously, you're not learning anything in school about have an educated, evidenced based debate. A debate which does NOT consist of name calling. One sure way to tell whether or not a person sides with the Repubs is to watch and see how many times that one resorts to name calling instead of holding an intellectual conversation. And finally, I don't have to insult you, you've insulted yourself. Nice.

Answer 9

well, we get lots of our opinions and base our life on what others think, like religion, we get that from out parents like it or not, or at least other adults. There is a lot of good solid facts and evidence out there in favor of hating bush, its up to you to sift thru the dross and find the nuggets, or wmd, whichever you choose to look for.

Answer 10

It's kind of like Fred Phelps and his cult in Topeka. He has brain-washed his group of incestial family with the same methods as Jim Jones and his followers.

The media has damaged President Bush and the contagious infection spread like wildfire thanks to a lot of high profile newspapers and reporters who worship the democrats.

Thank Gawd there are still people with their own beliefs and opinions......leaders rather than followers.

You'll be a leader.
