Micheal Savage qouted that many years ago back in the 90's an i am sure someone else also has said before that.
Mike Savage called people...Sheeple

The United States is a Republic not a democracy. The result reflects the electoral college more than anything. I find it hard to believe any person with half a brain can support a person who has never passed a budget in his first four years, put us into more debt, and feels it necessary to apologize to the world for the things America does.

This is really not surprising at all. In the mid 90s pat buchannon wrote the first of several books that predicted what has now come to pass. We have essentially shifted demographically in a significant way. If you are a person receiving some form of government assistance and you are being told that the rich are screwing you and need to pay their fair share you are going to pull the lever to keep it going. Likewise if you are a woman being told that republicans want control of your body. The election was Pre determined and nothing short of president Obama making a huge overt blunder was going to change that.

this idea that the people who feel screwed by the rich are all on welfare or receiving assistance is way off. IMO most of those who feel screwed work their asses off only to get consolidated by the great job creators in their rush to maximize short-term gains. Sooner or later there will be no middle class to left to keep the rich rich. Then it will get real ugly.

Most Americans are a bunch of sheep. Yesterday proved it.

Not true
Jefferson penned “An uneducated population can not choose their leaders properly.” With the left wing liberal media dumbing up the population and feeding lies and mistruths to put forth their socialist agenda. The socialist bigotry towards conservatives will continue unabated. They will systematically destroy the founding principles that were put in place to protect us from the same powers who want to change them. It is not the sheeps fault.It is the pro socilest media and entertainment industry at the root of this.

Well the fact is that there are a large number of folks receiving some govt assistance today and the narrative has been created that this can continue with someone else footing the bill. The reality is this can't be sustained. The single biggest line item in the budget is for entitlements. You also glossed over (I'm sure by accident) that minorities and women have been targeted with a similar narrative. This was given a name in the latest election cycle called micro-targeting. As for the Narrative that soon there will be no middle class left to make the rich rich...well you will have to first define rich and provide evidence that this is happening today.

You forgot to mention the fact that the public schools are force feeding kids bullshit and a liberal agenda. They are teaching them what they want them to know and what their beliefs should be. Most kids these days, unless they have parents who care, believe all the nonsense and bull shit their teachers feed them in public school. The public school system is a perfect pulpit to spew their progressive agenda. How many conservative teachers do you know? Not many, and they are all in unions. Hmmmmm.

[tompg]

talk about ill informed and brain washed. Single line item (singular) is for entitlements (plural). Those entitlements in the fed budget are social security and medicaid/medicare, and veterans benefits. welfare crack whores are a state issue and administered to by counties. You conservatives are just as much brain washed sheep as the liberals you like to bitch about.

If their parents would stop coddling their precious can do no wrongs and teach them to think for themselves. That would not be an issue. Never the less eventually a large majority of the youth in the country will realize that you can still have the ability learn after they know everything, and will be enlightened and wake up to the truth. That I have faith in, the media is a whole different animal. They know the truth and still ignore it.

Now that is offensive. Anyone that is a realist knows that the above entitlements mentioned are Ponzi schemes and programs that keep the impoverished poor. Don’t sell the average non-politician conservative that short, most of us see the big picture.

The lame stream media is just a propaganda machine.
