According to an independent poll, paid for by Daily Kos and conducted by Research 2000, 63 percent of self-identified Republicans believe Obama is a socialist.
Of the 2,000 Republicans polled only 42 percent believe President Obama was born in the US. Only 42 percent said they believe Obama doesn’t want the terrorists to win – that means that 24 percent believe he wants the terrorists to win and 33 percent aren’t sure.
A shocking 33 percent think Obama is a racist and 53 percent think Sarah Palin is more qualified to be president.
The anti-intellectual, anti-education, anti-critical thought crowd in this nation is frightening. Most of this misinformation is coming straight from Fox News and “people” like Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly.
What’s most alarming is that the trend is very sharply going away from critical thought and thinking for yourself and towards this pack mentality of utter ignorance. Where will this take the US?
Read the Daily Kos poll results for yourself and start drinking.
