It really should be no surprise that Obama supporters are divorced from reality: these are the same people who were voting for “hope and change” rather than any sort of concrete plans, and still support Obama because he’s….well, because he’s Obama, since most of Obama’s policies have been disasters. Remember the video from 2008 which showed the stupidity of those planning to vote for Obama? This one is just as bad
(The Blaze)…as it turns out, some of Obama’s supporters don’t even know the Benghazi attack occurred in the first place — and as they say, what you don’t know can’t hurt you.
Revealing Politics went to an Obama event at Ohio University on Oct. 17 and asked a number of the president’s supporters about the Benghazi attack. The conservative site says “most of the event attendees†had never heard of the terrorist act.
“So, what do you guys think about the situation in Benghazi?†an interviewer with Revealing Politics asks two girls.
“I have no idea,†one of them replies, giggling her head off.
One man said he thinks “the Republicans†were responsible for the attack while an alarming number of others could not identify Ambassador Stevens or recall a terrorist attack occurring in Benghazi.
Facepalm time!
Over at the Daily Caller, Jamie Weinstein discusses the Top 10 groups of people who shouldn’t vote (and takes shots at both sides). The above type of clueless morons who have no idea about current events should be included on the list. Instead of voter ID, there should be a test to determine if people have the necessary knowledge on domestic and foreign affairs to make in informed voting decision.
Crossed at Right Wing News and Stop The ACLU.
I hate to say it, but there ought to be a law!
O’Reilly’s weekly segment Watter’s World exposes the ignorance as well. And Jimmy Kimmel’s show was telling too:

Of course the GOP would prefer if only the “elite” were allowed to vote.
The “elite”???? Wow John, there must be a turnip truck near you. You really believe all of the simple minded talking points that the libs have been feeding you.
Here’s a news flash: The GOP and it’s members are not the elitists.
The GOP is largely made up of middle class folks, and lately it seems some very smart middle class folks.
Dems include the lion’s share of Hollywood, music industry, sports figures and lots of rich politicians, not to mention Union leaders. Pretty elitist if you ask me. And don’t get me started on the industries and banking icons who are dems. Then there is also the poor and sadly, they too have been hoddwinked about who is best for their future.
The democrat party USED to be the little guy’s party. Not anymore. SOme still believe it, but they are not informing themselves.
But you go ahead and stick to these inane beliefs about the GOP, if you want.
What I am saying here, is that I wish there was a way to prove that when someone votes, they aren’t clueless about the issues and that they invest a second or two learning what their choices are.
Instead of being herded to the polls like blind sheep, and instructed to vote for a specific party with the promise of some sort of reward for their vote.

Teach,
With all due respect, I believe your headline is in error or at least longer than necessary.
Everything after the word “Clueless” is not needed.
Just saying. ;)
Excellent points Trish. The Dem party lives to serve union fatcats, high rollers like Soros anf Hollywood, and people beholden tobthe government who want Other People’s money for free.
Heh! You’re right on that, GC. Though somehow I got spell check to change supporters to supports.
This does not surprise me.
Most anyone who supports Obama and the Dems’ Socialist ideologies are idiots. They have no clue at all about life, living, and how to survive in a real world.
They HAVE to vote for Socialism, else they’d either die from starvation, or end up walking the streets. They don’t know how to support themselves, or even what it evens means, so, the only thing they CAN do is vote for someone to do it for them. Or anyone promising to do so.
people like silly idiot and Bo can only vote to steal other people’s monies, even though they truly don’t understand what that means either, but they just know that they get that gov’t check, and it grows the more they vote for Socialists.
They have no comprehension that stealing other people’s money can only last for so long before it is either gone or the victims revolt.
Hey William,
Do u ever proofread your stuff? U should.
