Even given that I'm sure it was edited to include only those idiots who support Moore

I suspect the editing was purposeful illustration of the stupidity underlying support for Moore.

I wonder how these people feel after seeing themselves on tv defending a pedophile?

and do something different in the privacy of a voting booth. I think we saw that in last year's election pretty powerfully.

It still is probably representative of most of AL since Moore's polling numbers really have not plummeted.
They are wallowing in stupid like pigs in shit.

Revealing the irrationality is important. Plus, it is easy to laugh at that kind of stupid even when the issue is dead serious.

Really stupid ignorant people.

Nothing like ridicule to make people rethink their views,
especially when reason isn't an option.

THOSE are the type of people we're up against. You can't argue with stupid. This is what the GOP has created. A class of people who are dumb as axe handles, but believe they're well informed, and ready to take on the complex issues that plague the world today. Dog help us all.
