Scientific proof: Whiners grow up to be conservatives
You gotta read this. It's beautiful.
Makes a lot of sense "Hype" -- you responded to this story with a non-sequitur, reference to the far from reliable Druge Report, and yet more complaining about those evil, powerless Democrats who secretly rule the world.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, you've proved the truthfulness of the study -- "conservatives" are insecure whiners who love Authority, look for excuses everywhere for their own failings, think everyone is out to get them, and blame everything on the other guy -- even when they themselves run the show and own the store.
So, thanks for the demonstration.
