Fox News confuses Tina with Sarah

I just love that the left is still playing the same tired old card. I have heard every single R from Gerald Ford onward being called "stupid" in one form or another by lefties. It's so predictable and pathetic. How many times has it happened on this thread alone? And over what? A woman who isn't even a candidate for office.
 
So being Christian makes one a moron? How lovely. Good thing you did not know the Founding Fathers.
 
Sarah Palin already is who she is, as is Fox News, as are the liberal MSM.

Besides all that, this is a very funny mistake by Fox (assuming it's not photoshopped or something). It's not a political thing; I laugh when NYT misspells words on its front page.

Worth posting. Worth laughing about.
 
Like the predictably pathetic succession of ignorant science-denying Jesus freaks the Rs like to trot out on a regular basis?

Sad to say there is much truth to that. How dare a Rep publicly support evolution. Much less legal abortion.
 
Do you guys really have a point with all this??

Yes, Rip Van Winkle, we do have a point.

But the real reason why the GOP politicians take such an ignorant stand is that their base contains many from the far-right scientifically ignorant.
 
paraphrasing..he said.. he had been to "57 states with one left to go" [he heard people in the audience snicker] and then quickly tried to clarify by saying with the exception of Alaska and Hawaii..

Clearly, he thought he said "47 with one to go" and when he heard people snickering he mistakingly thought people were giggling because he forgot Alaska and Hawaii, which would make 50.

That being said, even if you took Obama at his verbatim word, your analysis is wrong. your position should be that Obama believes there are 60 states - 57, plus the one he still hadn't visited, and then Alaska and Hawaii.

Should i now constantly never let you forget how you are wrong and cannot do simple addition. Or should i just let it go and move on?

I will let it go. Your posts in regards to Obama seem to indicate you cannot.
 
God having a role in "sparking" life is not the same as believing in creationism over evolution.

And to provide more context, what were the poll numbers of - either Fox viewers or conservatives - who don't believe in evolution? Somewhere between 25 and 50%; iirc, it was closer to 50%.

The problem here, despite many who don't want to discuss the elephant in the room, is the influence of the far-right evangelicals in the Republican party. It has been nothing but bad news for the GOP. The GOP used to be a fairly common-sense, fiscally responsible party. Now? Too many creationists, too many who want to totally outlaw abortion, too many who refuse to even entertain any sort of tax increase.

GWB created this unholy marriage between evangelical science illiterates and the GOP. Not his best move.
 
You'd get a lot more takers on that discussion if you and others could manage to have one without a constant stream of insults and derision.

That could be. But from my perspective I have seen that group (ignorant evangelicals) soil and debase a grand old political party. I'm not happy about that. And that group doesn't even realize they are being used.

Mixing politics with religion harms both politics and religion.

Many young voters have been turned off by the narrow-mindedness of the far-right evangelicals. That, and a growing Hispanic population bode ill for the GOP.
 
You really cant do a poll on a question like that.

Of course you can.

The Rs are no more whores to the evangelicals than the Ds are to labor unions and trial lawyers and environmentalists.

I agree, but at least they are not corrupting their religion with politics.
 
Some influential spokespersons for the right have framed it up as the party of Good American Freedom-Loving Liberty-Spreading God-Fearing Christian Patriots in opposition to the Weak-Knee Welfare State & Socialism-Loving Atheist Liberals. A little generalization there, but not an entirely inaccurate characterization for some. Simple people like simple distinctions.

So what does the Republican Party get with their dichotomy? They get every manifestation of uneducated gun-loving racist redneck flag-waving unsophisticated blindly-patriotic scientifically illiterate fundamentalist dolt to be found in the good ol' USA! USA! USA!

Like it or not, this is a substantial segment of the ‘conservative’ base, and the Republican candidates—many of them perfectly intelligent and capable—can't afford politically to distance themselves too far from it.
 
Dio, you've driven your point home successfully, but how is that any differnet than the Race-baiting, "Bush hates Black people", "tax cuts for the rich", crowd?

It's just a different flavor of lying ********. No?
 
Yo, I know Obama was tired and misspoke. I get it. He also misspoke when he said the police acted stupidly. He also misspoke when he said the guy had to go in to get a breathalyzer for treatment. My point is, he misspeaks a hell of a lot. What politiician doesn't? But if you follow the MSM's general lines, he's a genius, Palin's a moron. It is tired. It is old. They said the same garbage about the guy that won the Cold War and put the country on a 20-year spurt of ecomonic growth. It's their damn playbook.
