I found this article interesting. Seems logical to me.

Men who are physically strong are more likely to have right wing political views
Weaker men more likely to support welfare state and wealth redistribution
Link may reflect psychological traits that evolved in our ancestors
Strength was a proxy for ability to defend or acquire resources
There is no link between women's physical strength and political views

Men who are strong are more likely to take a right-wing stance, while weaker men support the welfare state, researchers claim.
Their study discovered a link between a man’s upper-body strength and their political views.
Scientists from Aarhus University in Denmark collected data on bicep size, socio-economic status and support for economic redistribution from hundreds in America, Argentina and Denmark.
What makes this post on topic is...Have you ever seen Obama trying to throw a baseball?clap2.gif

Right wingers are heartless, basically. So many are Ayn Rand cultists. It's no coincidence that fascism (let the weak/sick/poor die! in fact help them along ha ha ha!) is linked to right wing politics.

"Men who are physically strong are more likely to have right wing political views"

No, it goes like this,

Men who are physically strong are more likely not to have university degrees.

This fact is based on reality.

Those who do not have university degrees are overrepresented in the Republican Party

It is not about being heartless it is about survival which by the way is an instinct and is not a learned trait for any single political party. Animals understand that too many weak pollute the well being of the group. I know many liberal nurses who will say the cause of high cost health care is from not letting the weak die. It is on record that republicans contribute more to charity than democrats and receive less govt assistance than democrats and volunteer more than democrats. Funny how facts get in the way. Obama is a welfare monger that is making America weaker by the day, he is a greedy racist that takes pandering to a new level and the worst potus in all of history. he was elected by his base;the weak, greedy, racist of the USA

What a hilariously contradictory diatribe. Let the weak die. Give to charity to help them live. Which is it? Liberals believe in a stronger role for GOVERNMENT yes. Because we can't trust flaky right wingers on being FAIR as to who they give to charity. Societies as a WHOLE must do a lot of work for the public.

It is well known. Higher education level, more likely to be a democrat.

This is from an e-mail I recently received from a very reliable and trusted source

The following e-mail was recently received by me from a reliably trustworthy source; He is not part of the 47% that will always vote Democratic but was raised on a ranch in West Texas.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The division of the human family into its two distinct branches occurred some 10,000 years ago, a few hundred years after the flood... Humans coexisted as members of small bands of nomadic hunter/gatherers.
In the pivotal event of societal evolution, beer was invented. This epochal innovation was both the foundation of modern civilization and the occasion of the great bifurcation of humanity into its two distinct subgroups: Liberals and Conservatives.
Once beer was discovered, it required grain, and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle or aluminum can had yet been invented, so it was necessary to stick pretty close to the brewery. That's how villages were formed.
Some men spent their days killing animals to barbecue at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of the conservative movement.
Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting, learned how to live off conservatives by showing up for the BBQs every night and doing women's work like sewing, fetching and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the liberal movement. Later, some of the liberals actually became women.
Liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, invention of group therapy and democratic voting to see how to divide the beer and meat that the conservatives provided. Women were not interested in democracy at that time because most of them were still women back then, and the conservatives fed them.
Conservatives are symbolized by the largest, most powerful land animal on earth. Liberals are symbolized by the jackass.
Modern Liberals like imported beer (they add lime), but most prefer white wine or foreign water in a bottle. They eat raw fish but like their beef well done. Sushi, tofu, and french food are on liberal menus. Their women have more testosterone than the men. Their first successful city governments were Sodom and Gomorrah.
Most social workers, personal injury attorneys, journalists, and group therapists are Liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule in baseball because it wasn't "fair" to make the pitcher also bat.
Conservatives drink domestic beer. They eat red meat, and still provide for their women. Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumber-jacks, construction workers, medical doctors, police officers, corporate executives, soldiers, athletes, and generally anyone who works productively outside government. Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work for a living.
Liberals do not produce anything. They like to "govern" the producers and decide what is to be done with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals just stayed in Europe when conservatives were coming to America.
Conservatives have principles, believe in a Creator, and the rule of law. They practice charity and give to the poor, normally through their churches. When in doubt on an issue, they check both the Bible and the Constitution, which they use as a constant reference in a changing world. They believe in the concept of truth.
Liberals do not have principles, except for their dedication to stealing production of conservatives and undermining principled references such as the Bible and Constitution. They are never in doubt on an issue because they always do whatever is best for them without regard to others. They have no standard of reference. Liberals do not give to charity. They cultivate the poor like a cat cultivates a field of mice. They use the poor as voters and give them a portion of stolen tax money which they vote away from conservatives. Satan is a liberal (as the "father of all lies" he invented liberalism) And someday soon he will call his flock home.
Conservatives believe in self defense, both at home and abroad. They own guns and use them to discourage liberals and other common criminals. They provide guns to the armed forces to discourage foreign liberals and other foreign criminals.
Liberals do not believe in conservative self defense. They disarm conservatives, and then attack them with impunity by liberal armies with guns. King George, Hitler and Stalin were all liberals who abandoned the rule of Law, had no principles except their own self indulgence, and attempted to tax and govern conservatives. Liberals believe in BIG government. They think the United Nations is the ultimate answer.
Conservatives believe in the rule of law and when sitting on juries, convict common criminals and acquit fellow conservatives who have been charged by liberals. When serving in the armed forces, they shoot liberals from other countries who want to govern our country.
Conservatives know the difference between a common-sense law and a bone-headed statute passed by some liberal from Massachusetts. When sitting on juries, they do not enforce bone-headed statutes, and don't explain their reasons.
Liberals only believe in whatever laws are appealing to them, such as the privilege of making a living by taxing conservatives. When sitting on juries, liberals convict producers and acquit liberals and other common criminals. Modern Judges are all liberals as they do not produce anything except chaos, and are paid with confiscated tax money. They consider it against the law to reference any source of law such as the Bible or Constitution. Like other liberals, they just make it up as they go and do what is best for them. Judge Roy Bean is their model.
The American cowboy, of course, is your basic, full-bore Conservative. A hundred years ago, an Englishman visiting Texas was attempting to find the owner of a huge cattle ranch. He rode up to one of the ranch hands, and inquired, "Pardon me, but could you perhaps tell me where I might locate your master?" To which the cowboy replied, "That sumbitch ain't been born yet".
So, what'll it be? Wine or Beer? Domestic or Imported?

Liberals like their beef well done? Totally false. w00t.gif

Liberals don't like beer? Poppycock. Have you been to PORTLAND?!?

Also your silly article is classic homophobia.

Bible as the source of law? What are you guys? The Xian Taliban!?! Shockingly un-American!

Yes, we're divided. Such right wing inflammatory rhetoric is just too stupid. Not to mention chock full of LIES.

That may just qualify as a "high crime and misdemeanor" right there. On second thought, somebody, get a rope.

DH was introduced to make baseball more exciting. Nothing to do with politics. I don't like it either.

"Link would be nice to support your claim.thumbsup.gif"

I have been looking for this missing link for years.

"I know many liberal nurses who will say the cause of high cost health care is from not letting the weak die."

This is not what the nurses say

And you know it.

They say, and speak, the truth when they inform you that it is a waste of medical resources, which are not unlimited, to not use them as judiciously as possible.

Why keep an old fart like me alive when its time for me to go, like Jimmy D.

I do not want to be kept alive on pumps and tubes being washed and wiped of poop with only distant memories to keep me company.

I want these resources spent on the young who need them, and where just a little bit of money spent can make a world of difference.

I already have a living will which states

If I can't bend over and cough twice

Pull the plug.

And I mean it.

Yes of course the terminally ill should have civil rights to CHOOSE to die humanely. A very LIBERAL idea indeed! The people opposed tend to be religious "pro life" fanatics.

It is now official. The Obama/media honeymoon is well and truly over.

Chris Matthews no longer has a thrill going up his leg when he speaketh of Obama.cheesy.gif

Chris Matthews sours on Obama
By DYLAN BYERS | 5/15/13 7:05 PM EDT
President Obama "obviously likes giving speeches more than he does running the executive branch," Chris Matthews said tonight.
Yes, you read that right: The MSNBC host who in 2008 felt a "thrill going up my leg" after hearing Obama speak has grown disenchanted. Tonight's episode of Hardball saw Matthews delivering a rare, unforgiving grilling of the president as severe as anything that might appear on Fox News.
"What part of the presidency does Obama like? He doesn't like dealing with other politicians -- that means his own cabinet, that means members of the congress, either party. He doesn't particularly like the press.... He likes to write the speeches, likes to rewrite what Favreau and the others wrote for the first draft," Matthews said.
"So what part does he like? He likes going on the road, campaigning, visiting businesses like he does every couple days somewhere in Ohio or somewhere," Matthews continued. "But what part does he like? He doesn't like lobbying for the bills he cares about. He doesn't like selling to the press. He doesn't like giving orders or giving somebody the power to give orders. He doesn't seem to like being an executive.”

We are past the realization that the Emperor has no clothes. Watch the Liberals break ranks rather than be associated with the embarrassment and disgrace the Obama presidency and all it's appointees has turned out to be.

"I already have a living will which states


If I can't bend over and cough twice


Pull the plug."



Just checked and this is wrong.


What it says is:



"If I can't lift one leg and pee"

JT:

Did you really take that seriously? It's no wonder you're so uptight all the time.

Relax and have a nice cold glass of wine.cheesy.gif

Edit in: It looks like your link to support your "higher education" claim was made by a 7th grader with a new bubble machine. Nice try, though.clap2.gif

Yes of course the terminally ill should have civil rights to CHOOSE to die humanely. A very LIBERAL idea indeed! The people opposed tend to be religious "pro life" fanatics.

Pro life at its base really is nothing more than pro lack of choice.

If someone wishes to die then let them but if they don't help them. If someone wishes to use contraceptives then it's their choice and fine by me, if they don't want to use them then it's fine by me also, for the same reason, it's their choice. I guess I'm pro choice?

If I was pro life I would say that I don't like people having the choice to die and I wish to impose MY choice on others. Insert gay marrage, abortion, voting rights for women and African Americans etc. etc. as to taste.

What a hilariously contradictory diatribe. Let the weak die. Give to charity to help them live. Which is it? Liberals believe in a stronger role for GOVERNMENT yes. Because we can't trust flaky right wingers on being FAIR as to who they give to charity. Societies as a WHOLE must do a lot of work for the public.

You were the one who, without evidence, said that the strong will let the weak die.

What makes us human beings, and above most animals, is the compassion shown by the strong (those that have) to the weak (those that have not). This is evidenced by the amount of charity work undertaken by the well-off and wealthy on behalf of the underprivileged. How many billions are poured into Africa by the West? Are these billions sent by the poor? Or by the wealthy of this world?

It's glaringly obvious, at least in the UK.

All the Conservative front bench are university graduates, whereas many of the opposition come from shop-floor union backgrounds.

Oh dear, that's the wrong way round, isn't it?

"Oh dear, that's the wrong way round, isn't it?"

RIGHT, It is the other way round in the US.

Check out what some of those anti science Republican nuts believe

And then you would know.

Remember that guy, the US congressman, who actually was afraid that Guam might tip over if it became too overpopulated?

It was reported in some of the major media.

The knowledge of science, the lack of it, is what is most scandalous among both Republican and Democratic congressman in the US.

You are probably correct that it is not the case in the UK.

Congressman Hank Johnson fears Guam will tip over, March 25, 2010

Please watch this

You yourselves will tip over laughing.

I Fing kid you not.

Couldn't find any homophobic references in it, despite going through it twice.

(Unless you regard all liberals as being homosexuals?)

And the Holy Bible has been the source of all law for most of the past two thousand years.

It is only now that non-believing liberals are trying to overturn the Laws of God.

So then, will Guam tip over?

As the US Congressman worries?

Just a drop in the ocean of what the terminally deluded come up with.

Thank you for putting my mind at ease.

I think that US Congressman was "NotHimself" that day.

(I could watch your Avatar for hours, by the way.)

Just a point of order. Congressman Johnson is a registered Democrat.

It is rumored he voted for Obama and believes in global warming.wai2.gif

This may or may not be off topic but why is something like gay rights more important than a persons right to choose how they spend the money they work for? It seems to me that this point is too easily overlooked, money is an emotional topic and I believe I can manage my earnings better than any bureaucrat. I believe it is my right to keep the money I work for.
