US MORONS? WE GET IT

Us morons are just too stupid to understand that.....
1. Bush lied
2. We shouldn't be in Iraq
3. Everyone knows this but the morons.
4. We are losing

A poll came out yesterday and was published in Newsday that shows something really startling: the people, meaning us, don't trust what the Democrats are saying about Bush lied and the Iraq war and think that what the glorious Democratic senators are saying harms the troops.

Democrats fumed last week at Vice President Dick Cheney's suggestion that criticism of the administration's war policies was itself becoming a hindrance to the war effort.

But a new poll conducted Nov. 17-20 indicates most Americans are sympathetic to Cheney's point. Seventy percent of people said that criticism of the war by Democratic senators hurts troop morale - with 44 percent saying morale is hurt "a lot," according to a poll taken by RT Strategies. Even self-identified Democrats agree: 55 percent believe criticism hurts morale, while 21 percent say it helps morale.

Reminds me of a story from long long ago. I was driving a cab and made a pick up at UCLA. A thirty something woman plopped in and started a conversation with me, asking me what I really did besides being a lower than low class cab driver. I told her I was an actor and had just gotten a job as a writer for next year.

"Ohhhhh, a writer? How exciting. Would you like a two week job doing some research for us?

Well it was for a local Democrat, I was a Liberal back then and since it actually paid money I took it. It was a research job for a class being taught at UCLA, and all I had to do is research on this GOP Republican disaster of a congressman and look where they told me to look. UCLA was going to turn THEIR RESEARCH over to this Democratic canditate. Now any of us who has ever done honest research knows dam well never to look where we are told to look because that instruction always means that the sponsor is trying to load the research. Well I looked in a lot of places for info on this GOP wrecking ball and what I found was a hell of a lot different from what I was told to find. I also discovered that the "research" was being done for a prof at UCLA who was teaching one of those Commie Women's Study courses, that the class was being let out every day to do this research, and that if they found what they were told to find they were guaranteed a minimum 3.0. The "findings" by everyone but me, went this way: Where was X during the earthquake? He was in Las Vegas; Where was he during the oil spill in Santa Monica Bay? He was in Hawaii; where was he when? and it went on like this. The facts were that he was in Las Vegas for a hearing on some disease or other and was the only California congressional rep there; he was in Hawaii at a Mafia on the Docks hearing; and research revealed more and more of the same. Well, when it was over and I read in the LA Times about how bad he was, and how clueless he was, I figured it was all over; the poor slob didn't know what hit him.

Then they held a fucking election (don't you just hate those dam things?). This horrible moron actually won. Why? Well several days later a Democratic woman said that the workers in Torrance, the guys who supported their families by working in the factories and oil refineries down there, couldn't understand the subtleties of the issues, implying that they were too stupid to vote the way that the smart people in Brentwood, Pacific Palasades, Malibu, and the other citidels of smartness voted.

I learned way back then that the real people do "get it" more times than the elites would like to believe. And it's happened again.
