Rush Limbaugh - Voter Suppresion & Deception Is OK

"I mean, you take a look at the average Democrat voter registration drive, you can take for every hundred thousand voters they register, the cumulative IQ would probably be less than a pencil eraser. So when it comes time for the election, half of them can be fooled in saying, "No, it's not Election Day. It's tomorrow, Wednesday." And they show up on Wednesday to vote when the polls are closed, and the Democrats claim a trick has been played on them. That's how stupid some of their voters are.

You think I'm lying? That happened. Republicans did a dirty trick and sent a flier out a week early and said due to unfortunate circumstances, certain precincts, Election Day will be held on Wednesday, blah, blah, blah, blah. Democrats heard about it, this is such a dirty trick. They were worried
because they knew it would work, because half their voters are stupid idiots! They have to be when you look at the way they vote."


Naturally Rush is so smart he can't put the pieces together enough to figure out that Republicans need to do this kind of stuff to win elections. Rush is the kind of guy who believes in democracy like any fascist believes in democracy, which is not at all. He believes in power and his own top down ideology.

I won't even bring up the fact of how many people voted for Bush in 2004 then howled liked starving dogs on a cold winter night when Bush tried to privatize Social Security because they were so stupid they didn't know that he planned on doing it as soon as he was re-elected or even realize that Republicans want to get rid of every single government social program because of their ideology. No matter what they say.

Now that's really smart.

And yes they are going to try and do it again in 2007 after the mid-term elections.
