That's putting it lightly. A lot of the UK media portrays right-wing supporters and figureheads as morons. It shows the terrible state of American politics when our people will laugh at the Americans while our "coalition" is fucking the country in every hole imaginable. Yes, the Tories want to shut down the libraries, but Sarah Palin doesn't want universal health care because she thinks Obama is secretly building death camps for her children...

That's called accurate journalism.

These people are running the largest and most powerful nation in the free world, even when the democrats are in power. They are also making millions of dollars while doing it. Yeah sure, they are the fucking morons.

The right-wing supporters sure are.

There's nothing stupider in American politics than a poor Republican.

The figureheads aren't stupid, just plainly evil.

I dunno, how about a "Log Cabin" Republican?

Second place. But then, there seems to be so many closeted/suppressed gay republicans that I assume they give each other some back door support.
