Here’s a Shock - Libs Far More Likely to Use Drugs

11cftix.jpg

Author Peter Schweizer wanted to know if there could be a link between a person’s political leanings and illegal drug use. His eye-opening finding: Liberals are five times more likely than conservatives to use marijuana and cocaine.

Schweizer, a research fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, writes in his new book “Makers and Takers”:

“Academic studies have found that those on the political left are five times more likely to use marijuana and cocaine … Another survey found that Democrats were five times more likely to use marijuana than Republicans…

“A study published in the American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse found that among heavy drug users, the ratio of Democrats to Republicans was more than 8 to 1.”

Yet another survey found a “direct and linear relationship” between liberalism and the use of any illicit drug.

Naturally, I am shocked—shocked to read of such a wide disparity.

Then again, it would go far to explain the brain-dead policies of the Left and their being stuck on stupid so very often.

Didn’t your Daddy ever tell you never to argue with someone who was drunk or just plain stupid?

But one question remains: were they Liberal / Stupid before taking the drugs, or after?

Comments

It explains why they can’t comprehend basic economics and they promote social agendas that foster laziness and encourage irresponsibility (much like the drugs they’re on!).

Is your incoherence due to drugs, too?



For any voter trying to choose between the two candidates for commander in chief, there is no better test than this: When American strategy in a critical theater was up for grabs, John McCain proposed a highly unpopular and risky path, which he accurately predicted could lead to success. Barack Obama proposed a popular and politically safe route that would have led to an unnecessary and debilitating American defeat at the hands of al Qaeda.

I guess that explains their aberrant behavior.

Wasn’t there another survey result that indicated that liberals are less happy than conservatives?  That could explain the drugs.


You don’t have to be a moron to be a liberal Democrat but it sure helps.

Liberals are five times more likely than conservatives to use marijuana and cocaine.—Some Dumbass

Could be also interpreted as:
“Conservatives five times more likely to be blindly obedient to the state than liberals.”

I don’t know where the tie-in between drug use and stupidity is, any links? Amphetamine use is common among scientists, for example.

And frankly, you don’t seem that smart Move_Zig, maybe you should try some drugs.

Which drugs do you do, AV?

Liberals are five times more likely than conservatives to use marijuana and cocaine.—Someone very perceptive

Yes, but like the fetid and oft ignored AV, liberals are also: ten times more likely to be unwashed, twenty times more likely to have an IQ lower than a lacertus, and fifty times more likely to mate with a tree.

However like the recreant AV they are never likely to be killed in battle…whether defending their own country or their own family.

Another shocker, Zig...do ya thunk that has anything to do with the fact that most scientists are employed by institutes of higher learning???

AV,

When you learn to peel a banana...then will let you try and tie Zigs shoelaces.

But don’t for a moment think you could ever walk in his shoes.

LDS LOL!

Thanks.

It just seems so obvious. 

All the pieces fall together—why the intransigent stupidity? 

Why the autistic-like repetition of inanities that have been proven wrong again and again?

Why the flashes of anger, the gravitation to professions which minimize the need for hard work and responsibility?

Why the adherence to a political party that endorses sloth, victimhood, and an abiding contempt for God and Country?

Why the projected fear of (lack of self control in the vicinity of) guns?

Why an argumentation methodology which is only a slight modification of the debating style of 9-year olds on the playground? (e.g. misdirection, ad homnium attacks, promiscuous use of false moral equivalents and never an acknowledgment of error) ?

Drugs… and lots of ‘em!

Stinkyhippies with brain damage… ha! ha! ha!

Why would anyone consider the opinion of those under the influence?


...for great justice

No, not in battle, they get murdered by their own side, like the “friendly fire” that killed Pat Tillman (though apparently an execution style killing).

And it’s pretty funny that you make reference to IQ, I suppose you think you’re smart? What’s your excuse for such foolish thoughts?

Care to debate?...one on one!

Good luck...you had best spend a few years in preparation.

Maybe you should ask your younger sister to sit in, eh coward??

Sounds like he’s on drugs to me! Either that or he’s totally delusional! (Or maybe just a typical liberal?)

LDS, okay, topic?

If my wee sis sat in, she’d do an even better job than I, she’s very smart.

Soz for the slow reply, just finishing a couple of contracts, I only post here when I’m procrastinating.

Proof: On drugs? The poor bugger; an atheist, liberal soldier; was shot in the forehead three times, and from a range of about 30 feet. What are the odds that he was shot by a Republican voter?
