Are conservatives completely brainwashed by Faux News?

Question

Or is there just something inherently wrong with their cranial capacity?

Their president starts a war, they're still bringing up Bill Clinton and his one little mistake (the Monica set up).

So what's wrong with them, anyway?

Answer 1

A BJ in the Oval Office is the best they can do. Cut them a break, they're "special".

Answer 2

Well Fox news owner Rupert Murdock has been meeting with Hillary Clinton. I have a feeling Fox will push big for Hillary in the up coming 2008 elections.

But if you are familiar with MK-Ultra and brainwashing techniques you will find Fox emplying many of the tricks of the trade. From the sultry info babes who lick thier lips suggestively to the primarily male Fox viewers to the NPL terms and methods used to make sub concious suggestions to the audience Fox is a very high tech brainwashing machine.

Lets not forget the words of former CIA director William Colby.

“The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media.”

Fox News is the right wings answer to years of left wing media. It is so popular because half the country agrees with (mostly) their perspective. The problem is that we basically have a 2-party system. The other parties are so minor they rarely have an effect (you can make an agrument for Ross Perot and Ralph Nader). A good number of Republicans (of which I am one) don't agree with the far right wing of the party but when the alternative is someone from the far left, we have no legitimate choices.

Answer 4

What? You make completely no sense. The president isnt just the conservatives president, he is the president that represents the whole United States. Second, the war was started after several countries supplied the US intelligence that led the US into war. Get your facts straight.

Answer 5

Monica blows Bilbo and the country is doomed? Damn, let's send her to North Korea to blow Kim. Har!
You are laboring under the false assumption that these so-called "conservatives" are capable of thought, as in cogitation. The vast majority of them are simply mindless sponges.
Ask why they vote GOP and most will say, "Because they win elections." Talk about tautology (and don't even bother trying to explain logical solipsism to a neocon - the concept will bounce off their crania like bullets from Superman's chest)!
But then, most liberals are pretty dim, too. It's just the human condition, that most of the folks around you are stupid. It's just that these days, any moron who can almost type has access to worldwide distribution of their maunderings.
Sigh.

Answer 6

I used to think that Republicans who support Bush were just haters who were obviously miserable unhappy ppl that wanted to be angry and blame everybody else for what flaws they saw in their lives; BUT, I have come to realize this is incorrect.

The answer lies in the fundamental way of thinking. I will explain: take for example, homosexuality. The rightwing takes the fact that the Bible states homosexuality is a sin to mean that it should not be allowed in our society. They see things in flat black and white; based purely on what THEY have decided is right and wrong. With this true conviction that they are right, they feel they have the authority, as the majority, to impose their beliefs on society, ignoring the rights of the minority.

The liberal pt of view, stems from society as a whole and the rights of the individual even when in the minority. Liberals, while many also consider homosexuality a sin in the Bible, do not feel it is their place to dictate to another person how he/she should live their life as long as it is within the confinements of the law. So, you see, the liberal-minded seem to look beyond themselves and what THEY believe is right or wrong.

Don't mean to make this a gay posting.. that was just an example to try to explain my answer to your question.

Answer 7

Democrats and CNN need to be smarter that these moron Ann Coulter followers,,,,,, not stoop to their level,,,,, Liberals are facing the "get of of Jail Free",, former Bush Brain,,,Karl Rove (turd blossom) again,,,,, our message is one of hope in our future,,, peace resolutions,,, more responsibility in government,,, Renewable Energy,,, (Apollo Group), halting scandals in Washington D.C. and around the country,,,,rather than attacking the most vulnerable aspect of another human being,,,,if a patriot looses a limb (or three) in a war; this is not a reason to attack them,,,,, Democrats will win back the house and senate and the Presidency with the message of kindness to our neighbors,,, more religious tolerance and humanitarian causes,,wiping out bigotry,,,, better education for America's children,,, illegal immigration reform that will benefit citizens, not reward criminals,,, cutting taxes for the poor,, and middle class,,,, plans to fix our broken voting system,,,,not sick policies of ideology,,, unilateral war, promoting evil and HATE and placing "good ole boys" in office when they can't even speak English. America can't afford to watch another spoiled, rich kid grow up in the White House, while running our country; another Little Lord Fauntleroy, born-again Christian could completely wipe the United States of America off the world map.

Answer 8

The funny thing is that it seems to be liberals that are so enamored with our former president. Most of us have moved on, and were not interested in the first place. You sound like a spoiled child that hasn't had his/her nap, take care of that will you?

Answer 9

Not all but a hell of a lot of them are. They got them so scared of being killed in a terrorist attack. That they don't question anything the white house does.

Answer 10

Fox News is a disgrace.
