I've noticed lately that there is an increasing number of carbon-copy republican talking point postings on political blogs, websites, etc., including yahoo answers - politics. Their opinions are so similar to official republican talking points that I'm suspicious that so many folks could be that stupid to support the Bush/Cheney's administration - could they be paid political operatives?

No. That's just standard Republican group-think. That's what happens when people get their opinions and views spoon-fed to them by talk radio. They all end up repeating the same asinine talking points (They hate us for our freedom. Fight them there so we don't fight them here). And really, when all the facts continue to pour in about how bad an idea this war in Iraq was, and how poorly it has been executed, the things they can say in defense become fewer and fewer.

About as likely as the Democrats pay individuals to spend time here. I do wish both sides would post thought out solution rather than just posting anger & finger pointing. If the liberals are truly the better educated, we lower forms of life could use your ability to solve the big problems of the world. Remember they have to be economically viable.

Hmmm... I think it's more likely that there are conservative firewalls that only allow them to visit websites supporting their views. On the remote chance it's a paid party activity, the jobs were probably out-sourced.

It's difficult to imagine that someone would spend their free time acting as a Bush apologist.
So, I'd say, "yes" some of them are paid. With all the secret goings-on in the republican party, it's not at all shocking. And they are probably using tax payer dollars.

I'm not paid, and I support Bush/Cheney. Please, grow up, and ask an educated question. We are not in 3rd grade anymore. Democrats (not all) are just as bad.

No they really do think that way. It has been theorized for a long time though that the numbers are fewer than it appears and they are a handful of users with multiple accounts. Although yes that many people can be that ignorant the President still has an approval rating about 0% so one would assume some of those people are capable of logging onto the internet.
