This morning's Washington Journal on C-SPAN
Wow...if this is a sampling of the voice of the average Bush supporter, I'm scared as fuck for the future of our country.

Between the hicks with no intelligence pretty much supporting a YEE HAW foreign policy and the Jesus Freaks shouting about the Bible predicting this war and that Bush should win because God wants him to...I mean. wow.

1. Makes you wonder
If America doesn't get what it deserves in a leader, doesn't it?

8. It's the same type of people...
that believe Limbaugh and Hannity are 100% righteous.


These are people who simply cannot understand reason. They are truly sheep.

2. Sometimes I do wonder if Lincoln was wrong to preserve the union
If states had won the right to secede, perhaps we wouldn't be in this current ideological pickle. 'Course, there's the whole slavery thing, but the south managed to keep that going with Jim Crow for another 80 years anyway.

Are we living the prequel to The Handmaid's Tale?

6. Rule of thumb...
I stopped listening to the callins: the biggest loons are usually from Texas/Florida, although you do get an intelligent caller now and then.

13. Free Speech in action--explaining why this election is even close
that call-in show is the dose of reality to bring clarity to the campaign. I appreciated CSPAN for airing the kooks--refreshing to hear the non-filtered Repug message. Loud and proud.

12. The corrupt elites have co-opted the ignorant south...to create...
a dangerous alliance of lemmings who follow the powerful crooks, all to the country's demise.


I'm just wondering when the modern age of enlightenment will take place...it's LOOONG overdue.

11. Because God wants him to...
means they can all stay at home, right?

If it's prophecy then they can just sit back. Have faith Bush people!;)

15. My feelings exactly.
While they are entitled to their uncensored opinions, I don't have to hear it. I also feel that I have been exposed to their uncensored opinions quite a bit-why listen to the crazy shit when I don't have to.

16. That's where I'm at anymore
with the call ins. Usually within about 10 minutes or less, I can't activate the remote fast enough!

Ironic how it's finally starting to come out that this is in reality a battle against radical islamic fundamentalists that have hi-jacked the Muslim religion and tying it to governments. We have the same thing here with radical extremist evangelicals hi-jacking the Christian religion all closely tied to the current administration.
