It has more to do with the horrendous candidates the Democrats have been putting up against him.

No question that conservatives are the anti-science, pro-war crowd, which reveals their lack of intellect and inability to think for themselves.
Anti-science?
Examples please.

Pro-war?
-Woodrow Wilson got us into WW1
-FDR got us into WW2.
-Truman got us into Korea
-JFK and LBJ got us into Viet Nam.
All Democrats.
Please explain.

Americans are likely among the most ignorant of the industrialized countries of the Western world, and conservatives make up the bulk of this group.
Agreed. How else would you explain Barack Obama's election?

Quote:
When their President cant even speak English, it kind of gives it away.
Are you saying that you don't understand what Obama is saying?

Actually I think that any party hard line thinkers = DUMB.
How can anyone honestly believe that a career politician is an honest caring hey are liars by trade and what few morals or integrity that they once had is long gone much like a prostitutes virginity. Do they have any redeeming value? One might argue that even a parasite has a purpose and in that I must agree. They are a necessary evil, but an evil none the less.
But what does amaze me is this profound loyalty some have to their party. The party is not your family, is not your friend, and the party does not= country.
