There's a lot of things to consider if the question is this encompassing.Media and the psychology of advertising, the comforting nature of easy answers, the attention span of the American consumer, education, etc.

It's a subject that holds interest for me, but maybe we could break it down into smaller facets?
Well I don't want to beat the point but I see the same type of sheeppl speak on both sides... Both sides given marching orders & talking points/counter points etc... W/ no one really listening merely countering.........

I can't really name names of those giving out those orders as I don't watch their shows or listen to the "expert advice"..... But I do see & hear how it is manifested in daily interaction....... (Maybe carvelle, limbaugh ect...)

As I said ppl on the left can see it in ppl or the right but not themselves............

As can ppl on the right see it in ppl on the left & not in themselves...

This is quite common self deception: one set of rules for them & another for us while consciously taking the mental steps necessary in order to maintain the duplicity & avoid obvious contradictions........

Example: A proud democrat takes a stand against Wright sighting clips as evidence. He openly & proudly refuses to acknowledge the full statements or any validity they may have. He adamantly refuses to acknowledge any evidence that would refute what he clings to.

IMO willful ignorance like this from a democrat is no different than that of a republican. If your position necessitates you to be in denial & are you are afraid to address evidence exposing your position you are probably a sheeppl......

I imagine that said by the narrator of "Refer Madness."

He was living in single room with 3 other individuals...

One of 'em was a male, but the other two? The other two were FEMALES!
