How stupid do they think we are?

The Obama campaign is running a video ad that claims Romney of misquoting President Obama. The problem is that even in Obama’s ad, a few seconds later, Obama is shown saying exactly what Romney quoted him as saying.

Do they think we are incapable of remembering things that happened 30 seconds ago? Or do they think we are that mind boggling stupid?

I suspect the real answer is that they are suffering from cognitive distortion (CD). I’ve had occasion to read up on CD and some other mental health issues in the last few months and I think a good case can be made, in a more scientific manner than expressed by Michael Savage, that Liberalism is a Mental Disorder. In fact it is a fairly well known and understood disorder. It just, to the best of my knowledge, hasn’t been explicitly connected to liberalism.

The problem is there appears to be no cure. It’s not a chemical imbalance. It’s not something that can be treated with counseling or therapy. If you can’t completely avoid contact with them the best you can do is give them firm boundaries, deal with their outbursts of anger and irrational behavior, and try to keep them from hurting themselves or others.

Some day when I have lots of time I’m going to write up a post on the topic.

    I suggest to keep them away from us, to deal with their outbursts and to keep them from hurting others that we simply DO NOT ELECT THEM ANYMORE.
    Vote NO to cognitive distortion sufferers. Vote their sorry socialist/authoritarian rainbow/unicorn-humping rear ends out of office in November.
