Greece has a bit of catching up to do in the Netherlands the last 4 parlaments terms where like this: An issue arose followed by a disagreement with the 2 elected parties and before they finished their term....

As for the extreme left or right sounding less intelligent....they would probably disagree....one will claim you are bought by the bank whilst the other thinks you're an muslim sympathizer.

Don't forget Slovenia. We had elections in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Why should 2015 be any different :/\\!!

Here also is election year! :woot:

As in the UK also.

^ SO the circus will be in several countries this year!:-j

STEED would be best qualified to answer that :03:

Me? :-?

Right wing religious people are probably less intelligent, but I think due more to closed minds, lack of questioning and often don't go into fields of science. That said I know many that because of hard work run their own businesses, have strong family structures and upper middle class. However, I don't like extremes right of left in positions of power...

Are "extreme" right wing people less intelligent ?

Comes down to who you are and how you react and so on.

I'm not sure if intelligence is really the deciding factor. People can be highly intelligent in some areas and amazingly obtuse in others. The Carlin observation and the one on "bought by the banks" both seem to be true. Extremists will almost universally tell you that they are the ones in the center, but there is this one thing that just has to be changed.

I think the first thing anyone should do in every situation is ask themselves whether they might be wrong. The extremist in any walk of life will never question his own motives or beliefs. He'll tell you he does, and he'll talk about his own "reason" and "logic", but in fact he won't use either, at least when talking about his pet subject. That said, in other areas he can be accomplished and smart.

And no, I don't have any real answers.

Actually when I first the saw the title of this thread I thought. Wow that sort of question lends credence to the idea that everyone lacks a certain amount of intelligence. :O:

Thank you every one for your indeep response. You are correct you can not say that it's just the right wing.

Here's something else..

I have noticed among my right wing friends that a majority of them strongly believes in some of the conspiracy that we have discussed thousands of times here.

Here's another reason, I have also some left wing friends and they seems to have their feet solidt on the ground..

Hey I'm a right wing my self, but not extreme. If +10= nazis I'm +1-1½

There is such a thing as extreme, I think. For me that line begins where denial of others' humanity and fundamental rights begins to happen.

I agree but unlike some here it shouldn't be applied to a private citizen just for expressing an opinion.
