Study shows psychotics prefer Bush

Bush Supporters Psychotic

Dec 12, 2006


I swear, that was from a study. Sometimes, the jokes just write themselves.

This Modern World:

Anyone who's spent any time reading right wing blogs already understood this to be true:

Lohse, a social work master's student at Southern Connecticut State University, says he has proven what many progressives have probably suspected for years: a direct link between mental illness and support for President Bush.

''Bush supporters had significantly less knowledge about current issues, government and politics than those who supported Kerry,'' the study says.

So authoritarian, ill-informed AND severely psychotic? That explains so much to me, especially about FOX News. How about you? :lol:

Hi I'm Punxsutawney Phil, again.

Suddenly I feel like I'm in a bad Star Trek episode, something about being caught in a time loo<disappears>

[steveksux]

Someone mentioned deja vu in another thread. Funny, it does seem like we're in a bad Star Trek episode, with one of those time loo<disappears>

DO you honestly take story serious?If we can use completely You wouldn't take Michael Savage's book "liberalism is a mental" serious,why on earth would you expect anyone to take some article by some lefty loony serious?

[Chosen]

No, I do not take it seriously. That's why you see the ":lol:" at the end. Maybe I should have put it at the begining..............No, the end is the correct place for it.:lol:

The laughter could have simply meant that you agreed with the "article".

[Chosen]

True, laughter could have meant several things. However in this case I just found the story funny. I had no idea of the conflicts that would arise from posting it here. I still see nothing to support all the deja vu talk or being caught in a time loo<disappears>. I'm just a little confused, but atleast I'm not Psychotic.;) Now I know not all of the Bush supporters are Psychotic, but for some reason I can't name one right now.:eek:

[Riddley]

Sorry Chosen, to explain: this report has been on WS 3 times now and was associated with a messy banning incident the first time. Not the content of the report but personal conflicts.

It's my error. I guess I need to stop by more often. Is there really alot of people in here that still believes Bush is the good guy? I really hope so. This could make my days off fun and filled with a purpose. For good reasons, there's just not very many americans left that like this guy.

There are here. Believe it or not it's all a liberal agenda however. Had it not been for the evil liberals, the judicial activists and the mainstream media, President Bush would be the best President ever.

Ooops... looks like I went psycho there for a moment. Perhaps it was due to the silly time loo<disappears>

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Nope liberals can't take the credit for this man. Rumors have that Bush will be banned from appearing at the Republican convention in 2007. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Okay, I know campaign cycles keep getting longer and longer, but I really hope the GOP isn't planning to move its convention up by an entire year!... :p

[Chosen]

oops my error

[Chosen]

Who changed my title and why?

[Riddley]

Thread title (A moderator) or title under username (automatic as post count increases).

[Chosen]

Then it was a moderater. Now I need to know why. :cool:

It's all in the hips...

Around these here parts you gots to be careful how you word things. While saying "Racists tend to vote Republican" is fine, "Republicans are racists." The latter being a solute to General Ization, as well as untrue. General Ization isn't exactly the most popular figure around here (them liberal mods don't support the troops you know) ;).

[USViking]

Then it was a moderater. Now I need to know why. :cool:
It's called Justice Whistle Stopper style.

You gotta watch your sweet rear end around here.

Well, I not sure about the justice part of that, but I'll mind my P's & Q's. However, changing my words leaves me loaded for bear and I really want to know why. If a Bush supporter was offended, let him state his case for me to decide.

FYI - Bush has a support rally for his supporters, takes wife to lunch. Divorce next week.

Kidding around is fine but this is just stupid!:sorry:
The flip side is that leftist democrats are sane because they hate Bush. We know that isn't right.

I suspect there are more republicans who do not support the Bushs than your 'master's STUDENT' took into consideration.

It doesn't matter, the rich and their puppets get elected and we play like our:touche: opinion counts.

You can sorta kinda count me as a Republican, simply because I loathe the Democratic vision of the role of government, and so vote against them the vast majority of the time. But that doesn't mean I think Bush is wonderful, or even that Republicans in general are terrific; rather that I'm stuck with two horrible choices, one of which (to my way of thinking) is somewhat less bad.

What would I really want? Well, how about this?:

* A foreign policy that's not shy about using military force to defend America's interests and spread freedom where realistically possible, but isn't overly ambitious and doesn't bite off more than it can chew.

* A domestic policy that lets people run their own lives, and doesn't stick Uncle Sam's nose into any aspect of them except as required for national security in a dangerous world: that means the gummint doesn't care what we ingest or who we sleep with, and that it doesn't try to redistribute income in a futile attempt to ensure equality of outcomes, nor does it punish success or bury us in a tangle of red tape or in a complex and invasive tax code.

Is that too much to ask? Well, from either of today's major parties it certainly is.

Here's my problem with this site, post, and moderaters. I post a story that's clearly written in jest and the members with-in the site respond in a manner that left me confused. I ask and recieve some input to the conflict that may or may not have happened. I don't know, I don't care. The story is funny. Then a moderater changes my title which was only the title of the story. While it clearly took nothing away from the fact of the story being funny, it did send a clear message on the views that are accepted, or in this case not accepted, with-in the realm of discussion. Now I click in to find the post has been moved from "U.S. & North American Politics" to "Current Events". Why should this bother me or anyone? Simple. While the story was in jest, it could and should have lead to political debates from Republicans and Democrats alike on the misrepresentation of views, the press, and yes our U.S. & North American Political system. The ideas of this is anything but a current event.

My rant is over, and I'll part by wishing everyone a Merry Christmas. Yes, I know that's not politically correct.;)

Merry Christmas to you too. And if it's not PC, that makes me like it all the better. :flowers:

I have no response to your complaints. Only the staff knows why they did what they did. It's unknowable to us mere mortals. As for what kind of posts your thread elicited, I think you should've expected them to be rather random, since no one sane (ironically) could take the proposition seriously.

I'm truely sorry, I don't understand this behavier. If the story truely offends any Republican or Bush supporter, then let the accuser state it. To treat the story in this manner is given credentials to the author's claim. I just don't get it.:sorry:

The thread is still here Chosen. People can still reply to it. But as we agree it is to be taken too seriously, perhaps we shouldn't take it seriously. ;)

No, I'm not a Bush supporter. Bush is too much of a lefty for me! :p

What kind of response could anyone give to the OP? I don't understand what you expect. That someone would actually take the proposition seriously enough to try to debate it? Why should they?

It's the fact that someone did take it seriously. Complained and cried. Than the moderators caved. The fact that someone takes it seriously, tells us a debate is needed if not demanded. I have heard from many people on this post. Not one has stated this offends me and this is why. What the moderators keep claiming is that people are getting offended. Let the accuser come fourth and tell us how. It's with-in the accusers claim a debate can be found.

I reported it, because we just had a problem with a similar thread. I wanted to alert my fellow moderators before it became a problem.

Alrighty, I understand. But I can't help you there, not being an offended party, or indeed very easily offended at all.

From my perspective it's the lefties who are nuts, but I don't bring that up because I can't think of any way that it would be a constructive discussion.

Moderators didn't cave. And there has been no serious complaint. Just a history you missed.

So, let's move on. ;)

Just messing with you JD3. I owe a apology to Izdaari & Towski. I do believe the general point I'm making is correct, but my writing becomes a bit loud when I get motivated. These two caught the brunt of my rant and I do apologize for that.

[Tempest V]

Sweet mother of God, I thought EQ had come back from the dead when I first saw this. :lol: Chosen, let me explain. There was a thread that a member called Equinox created that was the exact same as this one. Some members and the mods thought it was trolling and suspended him for a week. Other members thought differently. So then there was a thread questioning why EQ was banned, and that was eventually deleted. So then I got mad, because censorship is one of those things that makes me mad, and started the Censorship Issues thread in the Announcements, Feedback, and Suggestions forum. EQ handled himself badly after he was unbanned in that thread, and was banned for three months for an accumulation of things, and he'll probably never be seen here again. It was a mess, and I got Towski super-pissed at me. ;) That's why people are on edge about this thread, FYI.

Members are upset here because the moderation is amateur at best and the mods as a group are *****. Its that simple. This place is little more than a club, Chosen, and not a real discussion forum.

I personally think that the moderating here is very good, but I think some changes need to be made to the moderating process to prevent abuse of power, IMO. If you have a beef with the mods, that's what the Censorship Issues thread is for.

[Atticus]

Members are upset here because the moderation is amateur at best and the mods as a group are *****. Its that simple. This place is little more than a club, Chosen, and not a real discussion forum.You know, Sulayman, you've spoken nothing but the truth here. We are a group of amateurs--by definition--since none of us is paid and we do this for the love of the place (from the Latin amare--"to love"). And WS is clearly a club, a club with a purpose and rules to help aid in that purpose. And who knows, we may be ***** but I don't know what that means. :shrug:
