Former GOP Rep. Joe Walsh: The American people are ‘stupid’ and ‘lazy’

[daybranch]

41. Walsh is a little off on his analysis

He is correct that the people are often ignorant and he is correct that they are not as motivated politically as they should be. The key thing is it is the ignorance welcomed and spread by Teaparty types, Fox News, and other republicans in order to hide their obedience to big corporate donors that is so impossible for most of the country to believe that has led to the lack of political involvement on behalf of Walsh and other republicans.
Walsh will really enjoyy the next 4 years if he wants activism only. But I fear most of the activism is already coming from Progressives who rightly challenge Obama's centrist inclinations. Walsh will get action, not lazioness. The problem for he and the other corrupt politicians that dominate his party is that as ignorance is removed , the people become more and more progressive and as they become more and more progressive they begin to act out of the compassion developed through their empathy. Walsh has a lot to learn and calling voters stupid and lazy sure indicates a lack of understanding. Bye Bye Joe. Cursing your own team is not a good idea.
