http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_sense_conservative

Here I thought that the annoying term Common Sense Conservative was just a local buzzword, but here I find it is a commonly used term (see the wiki link)...so I suspect many of you are experiencing something similar.

Which makes me even more angry! Since when does going back to failed policies equate to common sense??

4. I'm not being barraged at all
I noticed a whole bunch of yard signs going up in one place, like a yard sign forest but when they're that close together it's just all noise, tuned out easily. I don't have TV. Is that where the barrage is? Oh, and I turn the channel on my car radio whenever commercials of any sort come on.

5. "Common Sense" out of the lips of RWers means "I hate educated people".
