It's an appeal to their base. Thinking is the opposite of doing. Doers are real men, thinkers are pussies.
It's a populism thing. Their base is largely uneducated.

With the source being "farleftside.com" I will assume the quote is factually accurate and I should make a voting decision based on it. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

If you were well-informed, you would know that "Higher Order of Thinking Skills" ("HOTS") was a specific educational progeam to which some Texans objected.

You're a wimpy man, Rueben, and wimpy men disgust me.
Obama has been a disaster for this country, so stick a pin cushion up your nose.

Just like fundamentalist islam, fundamentalist christianity has been at odds with 'education' for centuries. These are the same religious beliefs that got Galileo a death sentence. Martin Luther himself spoke out against reason and critical thinking. And because Texas is populated by large numbers of religious rednecks, they elect politicians who make such idiotic statements. Education is a threat to religious authority (and by extension, republican authority).

Speaking of reality, science, history and learning in general...
The Left absolutely lubz their science, until it proves that their nig pets are intellectually inferior mongoloids...
ROFL
