Another GOP plan, another failure....

 

[occupied]

I like how faced with failure Brownback is advocating doubling down and doing even more of the same, why do republicans do that?

 

[Meathead]

Ah, Comedy Central. Did you actually watch the "report"? Gawd we've dumbed down!

 

[Luddly Neddite]

Very funny is that the state pubs are now backing the Dem candidate.

 

[The Germans are coming]

Could have been avoided by just taking a look at Somalia.

Yeah, saying that "it takes time".

I think they do it for the same reason the RWs believe it - Ronnie Ray-Gun said so.

And, to be fair, trickle down could produce a job any day now.

Do you know a republican comedian? Or even artist?

Well the "job creators" got to keep more money and isn't that what matters the most?

If you had actually watched the OP, you would know better. If you had watched it, you would know you just made a fool of yourself.

Anyone who actually watches Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, John Oliver knows that they have crack research teams. Like it or not, they're not like Britebart, Beck, Alex Jones, Fox, Limbaugh. The so-called comedy shows back their segments with facts.

Yes, like the farmer said in the segment when asked if he would hire more people now that he has more money in hi pocket. :"Why should I? I don't need them.."

RR must be proud. This is a perfect example of his trickle down VooDoo economics. Make the wealthy rich and they will give it back to the middle class..

Except that Comedy Central is far from the only source that is confirming this Kansas failure.

I WATCHED IT AND IT IS AN EMBARRASSMENT! SCHOOLS ARE BEING CLOSED AND THE STATE HAS A 600+ MILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT! NOW SHUT UP!

You can shove inconvenient facts in repubs face all day long and they still wouldn't be mature enough to admit they were wrong.

In Kansas Brownback tried a red-state experiment. Now he may be paying a political price - The Washington Post

Next...?

=====================

Gullibility is a failure of rudimentary social intelligence in which a person is easily and often tricked and manipulated into taking ill-advised courses of action. Gullible people suffer from credulity which is a seemingly wanton desire to believe unlikely propositions that are unsupported by evidence and are generally in the same class of people including very young children, very old people, and the developmentally disabled. One can confidently say that Republican voters are gullible by choice regardless of their age, intelligence level, or academic background and Kansas Governor Sam Brownback is counting on their credulity to win re-election in November.


It is beyond dispute that Republicans take advantage of their supporters’ stupidity, and Brownback must believe Kansas voters are the stupidest people in the nation according to his campaign website. Brownback has the temerity to boast that his nonexistent economic achievements have elevated Kansas’ economy to nation-leading heights and promised that his “administration has accomplished this and so much more in my first term as Governor.” He ended by appealing to voters to “Help me stand up for Kansas against an over-reaching federal government. Join Lt. Governor Colyer and I (sic) today.”


It is unlikely there are many Kansans who are unaware of the “fiscal catastrophe” the state is experiencing due to Brownback’s tax cuts. They are so severe the state’s school system is in a severe crisis, ratings agencies have issued several credit downgrades, and the healthcare system is in tatters due to privatization. Interestingly, Brownback actually told Kansas residents his brilliant “red state economic model” was founded on principles that were not “the kind detectable by ratiocination.” He said in a speech in 2013 that his economic acumen is not based on “mental principles, but things that connect through the heart.”


Even gullible Republican voters cannot deny, whether their hearts like it or not, that squandering a budget surplus on tax cuts for the rich and corporations coupled with a billion-plus dollars in more cuts has wreaked havoc on the people and put the Kansas’ financial status on the fast track to bankruptcy. Still, Brownback is confident that despite the state’s nation-leading economic disaster, he can simply tell voters that everything is wonderful if they will only disregard mental principles of a thirty-year failed Republican economic agenda and connect with Brownback through their hearts. That, and just trust that Brownback’s economic policies are a raging success at “growing the Kansas economy.”

But to be fair, its not just Kansass that's gullible. We see it here everyday - people voting for corrupt lying Repubs who promise to keep them poor and unemployed.

Go figure.
