New Lefty Conspiracy Theory: Ritalin May Turn Children Into Conservatives!

[PeeboTyson]

Fool, liberals dope up kids with over diagnosed ADHD to make their brains more malleable to their brainwashing.

[jrc99us]

No no I think this lefty is actually right on this one. I have a small case of ADD and I took Ritalin for 9 years from 3rd grade to my Senior Year in High School. Now I hated taking Ritalin but it corrected my chemical imbalance in my brain to where I started paying attention and now I am a Christian Conservative Republican.

The hilarity of this lefty is that he just admitted that liberalism is a mental disorder. X-D

[TheImpeacher]

Right, and shitin thru your mouth will make you a good democrate.

[music2myear]

I'm very creative, probably had mild forms of ADD as a child (parents home-edjimacated me so's I never took no Ritalin), and am rabidly conservative. I break your mold Thom.

[UTubekookdetector]

MUSIC: I would wager (and correct me if I'm wrong) that it was liberal psychologists and the like that pushed Ritalin onto parents who couldn't control their children & don't look now it supposedly causes conservatism.

[hydin1]

Thank god for Ritalin.

[cldump]

first of all i never had that medication and i sure as hell ain't to left wing fuck.

[darrengowen]

This is totally stupid!!! It didn't affect my liberal child one iota!

[biga87718]

I took Ritalin for about a week as a 11 year old child but quickly found it interfered with my beer drinking and had to discontinue it's use.

I think Olbermann needs some Ritalin.lol

And some depends too!

[darrengowen]

@brian8793 I think he needs an Elvis dose, get him good!

[jepst41]

And to THINK that the cure for the greatest threat to civilization was that simple!!!

[jbpnw]

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

No you dolt. The only way to deal with the mental disorder of liberalism is stop blaming everyone else for your failed ideas and take some personal responsibility... add to that, listen to some of the top conservative thinkers.... read some of the top conservatives writings. Before you know it... a common sense gene will kick in... if you work hard at it.

[kangajd]

This guy might be on to something. Democrats, largely liberal/progressives are the most whiny spoilt cry babies. I wander what would happen if you gave every democrat Ritalin. Maybe they may be able to see their crappy politics with more clarity like a conservative can.

Thank G for Ritalin, if this guy is right.

[BarryDead]

That is new angle... Ritalin is the blame for what happened on Nov 2nd Because no one would vote against Obama's agenda unless they were on meds.

My key theory; Smoking pot and watching the cartoon channel all day turns you into demorat. Living in mommy's basement might have a little to do with it too.

I'm shocked that this guy isn't more popular. His theory seems sound.lol

How do the levels of dopamine affect your views on fiscal responsibility?

[hellsunicorn]

lol Are you kidding me? I knew Thom Hartmann was a dopey little kook, but this is way beneath even him.
