Were you BORN a Republican? Oh no!

Republicans are up in arms ... claiming that the results of a study conducted by Dr. David Armodio of New York University "were rigged" to make them look dumb. And what's with the ruffled eagle feathers? Scientists used a brain scan that may one day predict our voting patterns! For the whole story, watch Part 1 of our two-part series "Hardwired or Handed Down" ... right now on KBTVonline!

Kate.. I am now looking closer at your reporting. Wouldn't it be amazing if the results could be duplicated in a different geographic venue. Say Seattle or Orange county CA, or someplace in Nebraska. Then it would mean something. Right now you have a known very liberal institution "testing" a known liberal majority primarily of students. Maybe Dyslexia should be a factor or sugar high or drug use should be factored. How about peanut butter?

I think you bring a very intersting perspective in your comments. I would like to emphasize that I reported on the study not necessarily because I thought the results were by any means conclusive -- but more that I found the study and the reaction to it thought provoking and I was hoping someone such as yourself would respond with such thoughtful remarks :-)

The comments section is more interesting than the reporting.

The high number of vile comments on this video compared to the other video about being born democrats proves the teabaggers are insane.

Yes, republicans are born insane. It's now proven. Thank for the interesting research now proving this to be a fact. This probably explains their goose stepping to their leaders orders without question.

djhatd,

Actually, not ALL Southern states are "shitholes". I live in Texas, a Southern state, and we're actually pretty wealthy. Some of the best schools are here in Texas, and the 2nd best neighborhood in the nation is here, in Texas.

I have a test for you, its called where you born a dumb cunt?? Do you have a shitty song on your vids? yes. Are you freaking sexy, but full of shit?? yes. How about you get your socks off on a test which apparently makes Conservs look dumb? yes. Lastly, are you some lib deusch that believes anything they are told? yes.After extensive research I have come to the conclusion that yes, you were infact born a dumb cunt.Congratulations, I have a Bohner with your name on it!!

Critical Thinking, Reading, and Writing: A Brief Guide to Argument by Sylvan Barnet

What book would you recomend? Rules for Radicals? Maybe the Communist Manifesto?

[MisterBicycle]

Yeah, I am pretty smart. You don't know a damn thing about me. I don't work for the government, I'm not on welfare and I don't take handouts... read a book sometime.

You really think that you are brilliant don't you? Ever notice the same cities have rapes and alot of leaches on wellfare? If it weren't for government programs and jobs you would all starve because you just can't make it in the real world. You have know idea how anything really works, just how to legislate yourself money. Poll the prison community some time. You ever notice that they are mostly democrat? Wouldn't brag about that would you?
