Conservatism and cognitive ability are negatively correlated

Yeah in a real democracy he would, but ultimately in reality-land the GOP Fuhrers need to the give him their blessing, the will of the people is unimportant.

I still hope he gets his delegates and is nominated for the G. election...but I think it's probably more likely that I'll take a trash can to the moon, then on the way back land in DC and become President myself.

I like Ron Paul, but I'm way too much of a realist.

Not quite, the founders created the delegate "emergency backups plans" to keep the will of the people represented and its looking more and more like Dr Paul will be exploiting that plan because the vast majority of delegates are on his side. There is still a multitude of ways that Dr Paul can win this. There are many delegates planning to push for Dr Paul regardless of being bound they can still do it.

The only way he can win is if he starts catering to the ultraconservative teabaggers.

Let's see some statistics, quote some studies that show who does more charity, just because you say it doesn't make it so. Republicans like sending US troops to other countries and stealing shit. Republicans like to start big wars against words. Then you bitch about domestic spending. There are too many billionaires on welfare in America.

It is a known fact.
Arthur C. Brooks, a professor at Syracuse University, published "Who Really Cares: The Surprising Truth About Compassionate Conservatism
"- Although liberal families' incomes average 6 percent higher than those of conservative families, conservative-headed households give, on average, 30 percent more to charity than the average liberal-headed household ($1,600 per year vs. $1,227)."

I was about to say the repubs probably make more money so that's why they donate more but that isn't the case. I knew repubs donate more but didnt know dems make more.


It is also a known fact that the democrats are just as big war mongers as the repubs. We are in more countries now than ever before. Even though that lying sack of garbage Obama said he wouldn't use the military like Bush did. Senator Obama stated "no president should go to war unilaterally without the approval of Congress unless an imminent threat to our national security exists." President Obama acts differently.

We spent 700 billion on the military while China was the next highest with around 120 billion. Military spending is by far the greater evil than domestic spending. All the more reason why we should bring the troops home and take care of commitments here with that saved money.

when donating to the local "mega church" counts as charity those figures dont mean much

Donating to Al Gore for feel good carbon credits doesn't count either.

lol i'd love for you to show me the part that puts carbon credits under the "charity" bracket on your tax form. and the part where carbon credits actually come anywhere near the level of church donations

Oddly similar to the original post, no?

I cited peer reviewed scientific studies stro.



@Parker lol spell your name backwards and it will make more sense for you. Paying tithe to a church is where those numbers come from, did you read that study? Any organization which exists tax free and has political power that also collects 10% of it's members' money is NOT charity. It isn't even a good cause. I have been talking about paying for social welfare out of the defense budget for a while, good to see we agree on something.

"Mitt Romney is not even a conservative in the view of the groups you mentioned."

@ Harrekin and Deprave, since there is no candidate left for the ultraconservative teabaggers, now that Mittens is the only one left, Ron Paul has a niche to cater to, which is why I said that his best chance lies in doing so.

Typical faux-liberal throwing the toys out of the cot.

Cos Obama has started less conflicts that Bush...oh wait, hes started more in less than half the time.

Obama = Young Black Bush...NOTHING HAS CHANGED.

No, Obama has not started more conflict than Dubya did, we were bound by treaty to enter France's Arab Spring, and accomplished without skyrocketing US casualties. He got us out of Iraq and the end of A-stan is in sight.
 
GOP constituents embrace mob mentality.

How can libruls be smarter than conservatives when we know low IQ correlates with factors associated with the librul base. Characteristics that correlate with low IQ include - low education, low income, unwed pregnancy, drug use, criminal records and yes, being black. Now I ask you - does that sound like a bunch of conservatives to you? LOL

Do you have a mouse in your pocket? What else do "we" know? You are contradicting a peer reviewed scientific study but cite no verifiable facts. The truth hurts...

Which of the above characteristics do you claim becomes more common as IQs rise? Again - Characteristics that correlate with low IQ include - low education, low income, unwed pregnancy, drug use, criminal records and yes, being black.

Because you assert something does not make it so.
