What's this?

One, I don't believe there is as much ignorance on the left. No pie charts

here, but that is the assumption I hold because I perceive that logic and evidence point to it. Two, no doubt there are misinformed voters on the left, but they don't show up in droves to rallies and to the polls. The pride in the ignorance is something that bothers me. They have their "beliefs" about Obama etc and no smart ass person with an education is going to tell them otherwise.

You might try for the same comedic gold at a Hillarly rally, but I don't think it would work as well. And if a campaign county chair holds these views about black people, what does the run of the mill Ohioan R think? Watch the video.

And yes, making fun of moronic white people who are WILLFULLY and GLEEFULLY ignorant is much worse than chiding inner city blacks for their shortcomings. Which are in large part due to years of systemic discrimination. Or they're just lazy pieces of shit like Kathy said. Definitely one or the other.
