Conservative Brain - Fear Centers

Study reveals that conservative brains have larger "fear center" than the brains of progressives.

"A study at University College London in the UK has found that conservatives’ brains have larger amygdalas than the brains of liberals. Amygdalas are responsible for fear and other “primitive” emotions. At the same time, conservatives’ brains were also found to have a smaller anterior cingulate — the part of the brain responsible for courage and optimism."

Republicans Say THEY Deserve the Credit

As long as the nation continued the precipitous slide in employment handed us by Bush, the republicans were eager to blame Obama.

Now that his policies are reversing the Bush depression, the REPUBLICANS want the credit for the improvements even though they fought Obama every step of the way.

"Virginia Governor and Mitt Romney surrogate Bob McDonnell (R) on Sunday floated what may turn into a Republican talking point if the economy continues to improve: It wasn’t President Obama who made it happen, it was the GOP governors.

“Look, I’m glad the economy is starting to recover, but I think it’s because of what Republican governors are doing in their states, not because of the president,” McDonnell said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”"
