Conservatives are not the sharpest crayons in the box. http://pss.sagepub.com/content/23/2/187 You conservatives will certainly shout, "liberal bias", but would one of you offer a non-biased study refuting this study? Same findings, summarized http://digitaljournal.com/article/291215 Or see this article http://clubtroppo.com.au/2012/02/10/missing-link-friday-conservatism-prejudice-and-intelligence/
I don't know of anyone until now that tried to prove if you think there is trouble in the Black communities, or you believe that illegals don't have the right to just walk into this country, that you must be a racist. If you believe this is wrong, than you don't have enough brains to know better. Your not able to put two and two together and understand. Yes, I would say this is a bunch of Liberal bias. In sorry if we don't join with Liberals and believe everything is right with the world. They base their reasoning on cognitive abilities, which is, "Cog(*)ni(*)tive abil(*)i(*)ties are the brain-based skills we need to carry out any task from the sim(*)plest to the most com(*)plex. They have more to do with the mech(*)a(*)nisms of how we learn, remem(*)ber, problem-solve, and pay atten(*)tion rather than with any actual knowl(*)edge. Any task can be bro(*)ken down into the dif(*)fer(*)ent cog(*)ni(*)tive skills or func(*)tions needed to com(*)plete that task suc(*)cess(*)fully. For instance, answer(*)ing the tele(*)phone involves at least: per(*)cep(*)tion (hear(*)ing the ring tone), deci(*)sion tak(*)ing (answer(*)ing or not), motor skill (lift(*)ing the receiver), lan(*)guage skills (talk(*)ing and under(*)stand(*)ing lan(*)guage), social skills (inter(*)pret(*)ing tone of voice and inter(*)act(*)ing prop(*)erly with another human being)." That sounds more like plain common sense to me and I have to agree many lack it on both sides.
The Democrats used to be party of the working man but now they've given that up and attack the working man as "not smart."
You have got to be kidding. The whole republican platform right now is that the working class is made up of nothing lazy freeloaders who don't deserve anything because they didn't have the intelligence and foresight to ruthlessly claw their way to the top of the economic ladder.
Interesting that you would use the word "deserve." I think this is quite telling about how the liberal brain views the world.
There is a very simple explanation for this. Rememeber the defention of a conservative. They don't like change. When the liberals of the civil right movement, became conservatives (More or less what we see now) they don't like what the new liberals do now. (It's differnt from what they did) The racists, they would have been conservative then, and conservative now. Lower intelligence? Rememeber, Baron de Montesquiu thought of one of the most important ideas we have today, a system of checks and balances. But he was a conservative. So not all have lower intelligence. But the reason most do, is simple. They don't like change, and so a reason for that is because they can't think of anything new, so they stick with what's worked.
Republicans like the working man as they are earning their keep. Its the freeloaders on welfare and unemployment that we hate.
It's funny liberals love those people... and they hate us, the people who actually work and the people who provide the money to fund the liberal programs.
So in other words they indeed DO FUND THEM... but they don't want to. Have you thanked a conservative yet today for funding YOUR welfare?
Yeah these people are definitely the sharpest.... Post a stupid thread....get a (well you know the rest)
Stop and consider what I pointed out and you'll see how it ties into your assessment of the Republican platform.
This is the definition of Liberal for the purpose of this 'study': How many Asian nations fit the bill of being Liberal? Asians reliably score higher on IQ test than anyone else.
