Why are Republicans so stupid?

Republicans apparently believe that conservative Catholic Bishops, and other religious administrators, have the right to protect their scruples against the demands of their clients by refusing portions of health coverage to women. Apparently, Republicans who are not even Catholic believe this. I can't believe this level of stupidity would extend to an entire political party, but it seems to have occurred. Can you explain it to me?

    Catholic doctrine is a burden on all souls. Some of us see it. Some of us don't. Nonetheless, the Roman Catholics have liberty of conscience and should not be required to administer contraceptives or abortions. It's their doctrine. But, it's also canon law.

    Blanket statements harm all human beings. ;-) i think of it incredibly is incredibly common to have faith that human beings who've distinctive ideals from you're someway stupid or in any different case defective. I mean, in the event that they have been top, you will accept as true with them, top? regrettably, we (we being the collective we) frequently ignore that events and countries are created from persons and one length does not extra healthful all. i comprehend Republicans who're professional-gay rights. i comprehend Democrats who're interior the militia. Generalizations come from the belief we've of the contributors of a occasion/united states of america that are the main vocal and public... that is going for the two the human beings who say issues such as you reported above. It additionally is going for individuals who (i will admit, i'm to blame of this) have faith that others truly have faith/say those issues with any style of frequency.

    You might want to review the rights guarantied in the Constitution of the US which Barach Hussein Obama swore to uphold.The desire to murder one's child is not health care but murder and that is what the Church opposes. Such participation violates the first commandment of God and is a mortal sin condemning the participant into an eternal life in hell. God bless!

    Why would you want the government to tell you to do anything? Just because you think something is right does not mean that everyone agrees with you. That's the wonderful thing about our country you can have your own ideas.

    Yes, it is called the US Constitution you focking moron. It guarantees the rights of those wishing to practice their religion freely in the US. The Obamacare calls for PRIVATE CATHOLIC HOSPITALS and insurance plans (no one forces anyone to go there, work there or get a policy from them) to perform and cover financially the abortions and artificial contraception of any women getting any care or employed by the Catholic Church.

    You really must be joking. You cannot be THAT stupid. Even Vice Pres Biden is saying they will work out a fix because this cannot stand - it is unconstitutional.

    Stupid liberal.

    Most Catholic bishops and priests are democrats.

    Obama just took a giant dump on the core of his own party. That's why I call him President Dumbass.

    It's the other way around-- Republicanism is a side-effect of being retarded. They need treatment and pity.

    recent studies have shown that less intelligent people tend towards being conservatives, also towards being racist and violent. They cannot understand the world around them, and live in fear of being exposed as fools, so they get all puffed up and angry and try to control everyone else
