I wonder if there's a reason why republicans are just elephants and democrats are asses.

Because republicans are fatter?

As if being an ass is a bad thing....;)

Artistically and symbolically it's beautiful.

I didn't even pay attention to it until you mentioned it. And completely off-topic here, and this isn't necessarily aimed at you Decka, but why do Republicans always have to comment on art? Like Guiliani and the elephant dung picture of the Virgin Mary. It happens over and over again - some obscure artist destined to a life of starvation whips up some sculpture of Jesus having an orgy. A Republican, when given the choice between expressing outrage, bringing untold fame and fortune to the artist, or keeping quiet about it and having the art thrown in the dumpster after the three people that actually saw it refused to take it for free, the Republican will always choose to express outrage. "must . . . say . . . something. Must . . . express . . . indignation . . . ." Meanwhile the disgusting artists retires to Tahiti.

Sorry. [/rant]

It's because republicans are usually not educated beyond the high school level. And some of them even have to drop out of HS in fear of passing up their fathers -- ROTF.

Democrats are more likely to have a college education and particularily degrees awarded for graduate and post-graduate levels of education which means the dems have been trained to be critical thinkers -- not lemmings following rush and FOX news off the cliff.

In short -- republicans prove everyday the old saying "we're always afraid of what we don't understand."

Dop

OD - I find that picture very beautiful and artistic. And I admit a little bit of a turn on. Please don't remove it.

In addition I enjoy the responses from the outraged, it always makes my day.

DOP...as i sit here i am amazed as to how wrong and off-base that statement is. You can think it all you want in your own world, far be it from me to rain on your parade, but i bet far more educated people vote republican than democrat. How can you say this when democrats get all their votes from unemployed, welfare receiving, city folk?


And as far as Lionel Hutz's post is concerned......hogwash. I am disgusted by what the picture represents, therefore i can't really enjoy its artistic beauty. You all know i dont think any of our bodies are "ours"....so if she kills herself, she's murdering to me. She might as well be shooting another person, and have them float up to butterflies. The notion that killing yourself gives you peace and harmony, represented by butterflies, is kinda crappy in my opinion. Besides...she's being very selfish in the social environment, taking the easy way out instead of dealing with problems, and bringing greif to family and friends.....suicide and grace and harmony have NOTHING in common, which is what the picture is trying to depict.

It figures that people being mad brings echo pleasure....i wouldnt see why its what fuels her to get up everyday...

And as far as echo being "turned on" by the picture....are you a necro?

Wrong Decka -- many studies have been done with results showing a much higher IQ in blue states Vs. red states. The point isn't even arguable -- it's common knowledge.

Dop

Seriously. It’s common knowledge that blue states do indeed have more people who go to college. My mom just printed out all the states, in terms of what percent of each state went to college…and more of the blue states had a higher percent of college educated people.

As for my drawing, I won’t remove it. I personally think it’s beautiful, and very artistic like everyone has been saying.

If you want to go dig up my post from the last time this came up, the blue states also had fewer high school graduates.

does she have any stats on inner city voting? how welfare recipiants vote? if you look at those numbers you'll see where all the votes come from for the democratic party.

i cant make you take down the pic, i just gave my two cents..i think its distasteful.....but hey do what you want.

Yes. They vote liberal. What's your point?

You know, Dop - you're one hell of a deluded prick. My father has more intellect in his pinky finger than you do your entire body. I suppose it's difficult to wax intellectually with someone whose busy taking learning cues from fucking aliens, but I guess that's another issue for another debate. What have you done with your life other than ingest copious quantities of methyl amphetamines in order to better understand the universe and it's intricacies, for it's VERY apparent the late 60's and early 70's were REALLY good to you, weren't they? My father was educated at several prestigious prep academies, graduated valedictorian in high school, and magna cum laude at Dartmouth. He moved on to a career in the Air Force and retired after 17 yrs of service as a lieutenant colonel. What was your rank when you left the Navy??? I've been very fortunate my entire life and have had the honor of meeting a ton of successful people - mostly conservatives - and I consider myself lucky to have learned what I can from them. I suppose I shouldn't get pissed over the ramblings of an aging hippy, for the only thing more disconcerting than that is an ex-serviceman with no loyalty.

The Praetorian, no one said or claimed that only liberals were successful. There are many wealthy, rich and educated Republicans throughout our country. It just so happens, that typically there are more educated Democrats.

and that wouldnt have anything to do with their actual time in college would it OD? I bet more people come out liberal then went in liberal. I would also bet that a lot of people that come out of college liberals are no longer liberal 10-15 years down the road. what we have here is another one sided study from OD.

huh? So, then wouldn't all the more college educated states vote Republican? Right? Because if 10-15 years down the road they went conservatives...MORE then half of the people would vote for Bush or Republican.

Your logic makes no sense.

Geeesh Prae -- calm down dude ... no one's talking about your father. I'm talking about ALL republicans as we know them today not your father 20 or 30 or 40 years ago... I'm sure he was(is) a cool dude and there's no way I want to waste my post on just one person anyway.

My father fought in WW1, helpled track Pancho Villa, worked his way from San Francisco to NY (partially by covered wagon), was a honky tonk piano player, was once beat up by the purple gang for hitting on one of their women, had his own vaudeville show, played piano in the George Whitman orchestra, played in the band on the Queen mary, composed music for Warner and MGM, could shoot a game of 9 ball with the best of them, was afraid of no one and he raised a half dozen kids that turned out just fine ... look at me.

He also went to college ... he took his sister her lunch one day.

You got it, Dop. His name's Milton. He came out with all the money, and he was the one who burned the building because of his stolen red Swingline stapler. I love that movie too...

Truer words were never spoken......they fear and hate anything they do not understand or anyone who threatens their carefully crafted worldview ....anyone who does not acquiesce, anyone who refuses to subscribe to their "sacred" beliefs and taboos and traditions is anathema to them.....it is a cornerstone of Conservative ideology.

It is a hallmark of ignorant people, ever since the first caveman screeched in rage at the sight of people from a never-before-seen tribe or who cowered in fear at the rumble of thunder, imagining it some vengful entity above who was expressing anger at him.

wow i dont think i ever disagreed with someone more....

I dont understand Quantum physics....but yet i dont fear it.

I dont "fear" abortion..i dont "fear" radical, peace-pipe smoking ideas....i just disagree with it.

Understood, but you have to admit, your prior post was REALLY degrading, and that's what spired my nasty response. You lumped all Republicans into a category that was akin to describing the people who rode the short bus to school, and while I can see that some of your points were valid, you failed to see how offensive that post was in the first place. The reason I mentioned my father was because he's a pretty staunch Republican and he's a prime example of being diametrically opposed to the caliber of person you were ridiculing.

Btw, it sounds like your dad had a pretty rich history. Interesting stuff...:)

Didn't you say that people that there were more people in college in that state? Some, maybe even a lot of college students are just voting for who their parents are voting for.

unless anybody else has anything to say, I declare this post dead...

Untrue. This is a Pew report, under a subtitle "Demographic profiles of the parties":

Republicans: 25% college grad., 24% some college, 38% high school grad., 13% less than high school.

Democrats: 19% college grad., 21% some college, 39% high school grad., 21% less than high school.
