Green Mtn,

Believe me, I know a ton of Republicans and work in a field filled with them and the majority of them are wonderful people, however, the ones that do bother me are the hateful, rigid, holier than thou ones that use lies, distortions and fabrications to push their agenda.

Now, I'm sorry, but to me, Franken and Moore are different than Limpball, O'Lielly, Shammity and many others. I have not encountered blatant lies from their end near any similarity to that of those I just mentioned. I'm not saying that they do not use theater to move along their points, but I've yet to see their claims come close to the lies that many on the right have told and continue to tell.

In my reading and study, as I have put forth before, I sincerely believe conservatives and liberals think and process information differently. And this is another reason I think there are so many hardline conservatives that remain successful. In some ways, the electronic media favors the distribution of the conservative agenda at this time. For example, conservatives have learned how to use radio and televison more effectively than liberals. They have learned to mix entertainment and their information better. But what I have a serious concern about is the process of using distortion and lies to get that information out there, especially when some networks call their factual and bias free when it is not.

Hope this helps...
