I came across this in another forum and wanted to share it.
I think they may actually have something here.
Common Sense gene missing in Leftists?

With all of the absurdities taking place lately here in America, it is a fair question to ask...
It just keeps getting more and more absurd - the lack of critical thinking from the left... The lack of even the lowest levels of common sense from the left...
Is a genetic disorder to blame for electing obama and ultimately the destruction of America as we know it?

Actually, you may be onto something. There is no question that genetic make up
does influence personal world view as well as which areas of the brain perform specific functions.
It is possible that liberals employ more of the emotional centers of the brain to process imformation for the purpose of decision making....where as conservatives may tend to better compartmentalize their emotional centers from the more analytical centers and are therefore more skilled at critical thinking without the intrusion of emotions over the final choices that are made in critically important decisions.

Neurology is my career. Unlike psychology and psychiatry, Neurology is a hard science.
In time, I think we will have uncovereded the neurological mechanism for political ideology progression. Indeed, I think it will be shown that liberalism is in fact, a genetic defect. But in fact, I think it will be shown to be a gene that is missing. Liberals
are nothing more than a group of people with a genetic condition that results in varying degrees of diminished common sense. They appear
to be normal in every other way - more or less.

Without question Steve - There is a genetic link to the liberal brain disease.

Taken from someone from another forum -
WARNING - THIS POST REQUIRES COMMON SENSE IN ORDER TO COMPREHEND:
Everybody understands that a government run system will be inefficient and will invite corruption and abuse like the $60 billion of Medicare fraud. Everyone knows that there will be rationing. Everyone knows that almost half of US doctors will quit the profession. In short, healthcare in America will go from the best to something truly dismal.
So why would the Democrat Party force this monstrosity on America? Why would they summarily snatch away liberty promised by the Constitution? Do they not see that freedom to choose your doctor and what medical treatment you get is as fundamental a freedom as is freedom to vocalize your views?
The answer to these questions lies in understanding the aim of Socialism, which is that fairness and equality must be hard features of the society. All men are to have equal income, equal opportunity, equal healthcare. If some men are more competent, more resourceful, more motivated, these men must be suppressed so as not to rise above the equality norm. Which implies freedom has no place in a Socialist society. Thus freedom becomes a target, a pariah to be extinguished.
Command of something as basic as healthcare sets the tenor of the society. What better way to make a man compliant than to control his healthcare? What better way to get him to volunteer to be an accepting member of the state? Government control of healthcare establishes a boundary of thought and a medium of expectation that pervades the mind of every citizen. It is crucial to depersonalization and homogenization of the population
