The Obligatory “Dems Are Mental” Post

Heh heh (Gallup)

Republicans are significantly more likely than Democrats or independents to rate their mental health as excellent, according to data from the last four November Gallup Health and Healthcare polls. Fifty-eight percent of Republicans report having excellent mental health, compared to 43% of independents and 38% of Democrats. This relationship between party identification and reports of excellent mental health persists even within categories of income, age, gender, church attendance, and education.

The basic data — based on an aggregated sample of more than 4,000 interviews conducted since 2004 — are straightforward.

 
Not that we really NEEDED a study to confirm.

I liked the part at the end of the report where the author writes this:

“…one cannot say whether something about being a Republican causes a person to be more mentally healthy, or whether something about being mentally healthy causes a person to choose to become a Republican…”

Republicans don’t know that the majority of Americans think that Republicans are crazy
