Democrats believe in ghosts, fortune tellers and psychics. Is it just a coincidence they still believe in Hope and Change?

Break out the Ouija Board and find out if they believe in the tooth fairy, unicorns and Santa Claus (no, no Santa Claus. He’s a symbol of Christmas, that racist, sexist, homophobic holiday celebrated by intolerant Christians).

Here’s the story of a new Pew Research study from Byron York in the Washington Examiner:

“Conservatives and Republicans report fewer experiences than liberals or Democrats communicating with the dead, seeing ghosts and consulting fortunetellers or psychics,” the Pew study says. For example, 21 percent of Republicans report that they have been in touch with someone who is dead, while 36 percent of Democrats say they have done so. Eleven percent of Republicans say they have seen a ghost, while 21 percent of Democrats say so. And nine percent of Republicans say they have consulted a fortuneteller, while 22 percent of Democrats have.

There’s more. Seventeen percent of Republicans say they believe in reincarnation, while 30 percent of Democrats do. Fourteen percent of Republicans say they believe in astrology, while 31 percent of Democrats do. Fifteen percent of Republicans say they view yoga as a spiritual practice, while 31 percent of Democrats do. Seventeen percent of Republicans say they believe in spiritual energy, while 30 percent of Democrats do.

Have you ever been to Taos, New Mexico? They’ve built up this phony marketing mystique about how “spiritual” the place is. The tour guides say things like, “You can just feeeeeeel the spiritual nature of the land.”

Want to know what we felt when we were there? Cold. Freezing ass cold. And the spirit guide wanted us to stand around outside in the freezing ass spiritual cold when we wanted to go inside and get a steaming hot cup of real world joe.

Sorry, we got off point.

The point was, this Pew survey goes a long way toward explaining why Democrats continue to believe in Hope and Change and ObamaCare and, for that matter, anything that comes out of this president’s mouth.
