Conservatives can’t really be this stupid can they? Okay, to be fair, maybe they aren’t stupid, they are instead ignorant. And you know what? I’m ignorant too when it comes to this particular story (more on that in a moment), but the difference is I’m not using my ignorance to attack the political opposition. I leave that to conservatives, because they are damn good at it.

The first thing you need to know is I’m not defending anything Richard Cohen has previously written, I’m only talking about one particular column. And yes, I’m sorry my liberal friends, but I will stop and think and consider my response to a column before shooting my mouth off. Unfortunately I believe many liberals have done just that in response to Richard Cohen’s recent Washington Post article (“Christie’s tea-party problem“). Many are calling Cohen a racist, and this is the specific paragraph many liberals have focused on:

Why are big cities Democratic strongholds? Why are the most populated counties in America painted blue? Why is there such a large land area in the middle of this country that is deep red? If you look at an electoral map lit up by county, you might think the United States is a conservative (Republican) nation. But you would be wrong.

In a “Fact of the Day” article last November, I wrote that, “eliminating the [Social Security] wage cap while keeping the benefits cap produces a Social Security surplus.” But you don’t have to take my word for it as this is a fact backed up by the Congressional Research Service. But it’s also just common sense. If you lift the revenue limiter (the wage cap) but you pay out the same benefits, obviously Social Security will be solvent for some time to come.

Conservative columnist Kurt Schlichter delivers a concise but trite piece of liberal-bashing on Townhall.com. In the article he tells Millenials that by voting for Obama by a margin of 28 percent, they have voted for their own serfdom, and in the bargain, have set up a wealth transfer from the young to the old. Schlichter considers himself part of the latter group (he is 49), and he thanks them for their gifts.

This week we learned only 6 people enrolled in an insurance plan on Day 1 of the rollout of HealthCare.gov. We also learned that President Obama stretched the truth or flat-out lied (depending on your political persuasion) when he said, “If you like your plan, you can keep it.”

I’m no fan of the Affordable Care Act. Maybe it was the best we could do in 2010 under the weight of Republican double-dealing and quackery, but the ACA is flawed because it tries to exist within the current health care insurance system. And well, the current system isn’t really a system at all. It’s a collection of disparate for-profit health care insurance companies. What the ACA gets right is the patient protections, but what it gets wrong is the method of insurance.

One thing is clear if you pay attention to politics, there’s a large contingent of conservatives in this country who believe a Democratic president, any Democratic president, is automatically illegitimate. It doesn’t matter that the Democratic president was elected by a majority (or plurality) of American citizens, because that never actually happened, according to conservatives. See in conservative fantasia, they believe most Americans are conservatives too, and because they believe this, that means no Democrat, especially not one with any liberal ideas, could possibly win a presidential election on the merits.

Dear liberals and Democrats, I have a short message regarding the Affordable Care Act followed by a tiny request. Actually, this message is specifically concerning all the problems people are having when trying to logon to the new federal health care exchange website (HealthCare.gov). And I can already sense you turning on me at this very moment, but please, stick around for just a few more moments.
