As I’ve said, the media template will be should Barack Obama lose the election, it won’t be because the people disagreed with his policies. It will be because Americans (conservatives in particular) are racists.
According to lead researcher Gordon Hodson, a psychologist at Brock University in Ontario, low-intelligence adults tend to gravitate toward socially conservative ideologies, the study found. Those ideologies, in turn, stress hierarchy and resistance to change, attitudes that can contribute to prejudice, Hodson wrote in an email to LiveScience.
So unless you wish to be branded a racist, vote Obama 2012!
OK… if that’s what the sole criterion for being racist is…. I are one. I WILL NOT vote for zerO. At this point I’ll just about vote ABO (anyone but Obama).
In soft studies, one generally finds what one seeks.
In “breaking” news, Georgia judge Michael Malihi has put off ruling on whether BHO can appear on the Georgia ballot in November’s election. The President’s defense announced that they would “boycott” the hearing, and wrote to Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp, urging him to “suspend the hearing”, which he has no authority to do. In his reply he stated, “If you and your client choose to suspend your participation in the [Office of State Administrative Hearings] proceedings, please understand that you do so at your own peril.”
In reading the comments on the various articles, the Obanauts predictably manifest zero understanding of the legal issues.
The second shoe hasn’t hit the floor yet, so it is too early to predict the outcome. Judge Mahili will certainly come under tremendous political pressure, so pray that he stays safe and strong and rules in accordance with the law.
This is unfolding more or less as I had foreseen. BHO can pretend to be taking the moral high ground and his shills will vilify those who want to see the goods, calling them racists and much else. He would not carry Georgia in any event, but this could cascade and get really ugly for him.
We live in interesting times.
Oh brother – they’re trotting out this canard AGAIN??!!
You know what the definition of insanity is.
I are a dumb hick racist as well, PB. Hold on to my Bible while I clean my gun, wouldja?
This study sounds biased. The author may be prejudiced.
Ya think?
Surely not. He’s a professor! A professional scholar and trained researcher. Like a journalist, he simply seeks the truth and wouldn’t possibly be swayed by his own predispositions. That wouldn’t be ethical! If we don’t like what he finds it’s because we’re ignernt knuckle-draggers who emerged from the shallow end of the gene pool. We can be helped by enlightened people like him if only we were willing to listen.
Garbage questions in, garbage data out. How many Conservative Americans believe, “Schools should teach children to obey authority?” The British Labor Party depends on the votes of the low IQ union members and the large number of dole “dolt” recipients. This psychologist believes that his title and University appointment confers legitimacy to his stupidity. Has he checked the IQ of the other staff at his University and whether their appointments were politically also made because they’re leftist sycophants?
Does this psychologist believe Obama has a high IQ? Or that his skin color makes Obama immune from rational analysis of his speech, his vocabulary, his refusal to produce school records, his lack of any scholarly writings and his continuous lying?
If fifty million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing. ~ Bertrand Russell
So unless you wish to be branded a racist, vote Obama 2012!
Oddly enough, being called a racist by the pathological liars who *are* racists holds no terror for me.
“”Those [conservative] ideologies, in turn, stress hierarchy and resistance to change,”" means— Respect for elders and having strong values.
“”attitudes that can contribute to prejudice”" means— The ability of discernment.
from: The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness.
What the liberal mind is passionate about is a world filled with pity, sorrow, neediness, misfortune, poverty, suspicion, mistrust, anger, exploitation, discrimination, victimization, alienation and injustice. Those who occupy this world are “workers,” “minorities,” “the little guy,” “women,” and the “unemployed.” They are poor, weak, sick, wronged, cheated, oppressed, disenfranchised, exploited and victimized. They bear no responsibility for their problems. None of their agonies are attributable to faults or failings of their own: not to poor choices, bad habits, faulty judgment, wishful thinking, lack of ambition, low frustration tolerance, mental illness or defects in character.

The fear that haunts every liberal is that there is someone, somewhere, who neither needs nor wants his help.
They must fear me, then…
I don’t know if this was intentional or not, but contemporary liberalism, progressivism, etc., are far more conservative in their nature and origin than American conservatism, which is predominantly influenced by classical liberalism, and is a compromise between a totalitarian and chaotic order. The first set of ideologies are only liberal in their promotion of instant gratification without consequence and in their selective interpretation of their own principles. The submission to a hierarchy and a reactionary response are, by design, inherent to the former and not the latter. They are surrogates for individuals and groups who cling to old times and ancient systems repackaged to deceive modern sensibilities.
In Canada the Liberals have always played the race card (whether it applies or not) whenever someone disagrees with them or points out a flaw in their policy or people.
I don’t understand how you could apply the racism charge in the case of Barack Obama, after all he is at least 50% white.
Just for the record he is only 6.25% black, the remainder being 43.75% Arabic ” http://africanpress.me/2008/10/03/barack-hussein-obama-will-be-if-elected-the-first-arab-american-president-not-black-american/ “.
Why do you think Herman Cain trashed the way he was, can’t have another black man run against Obama because the liberals couldn’t use the race card against us. Since I’m voting against Obama, I’m a racist. OH WELL!
What drew Barack Obama to the racist teachings of Reverend Wright? Low IQ, bigoted left-wing ideology … or both?
