In my opinion, it is more serious than that. How do you get things done when you can't trust someone who ignores the obvious? How can you engage in an adult discussion when someone decides NOT to consider your FACTS because they make 'your guy' look bad or makes it more difficult for them to prove their argument? This is what it has become.
My brother is a Tea Party supporter and I've tried discussing things like racism and their anti gay positions. He denies it and asks for proof. I give it to him and he dismisses it as liberal propaganda.When I site a news source he considers them all left leaning. He only allows Washington Times, Wall Street Journal,Fox News,Newsbusters,Newsmax,World Net Daily,Brietbart,etc. as a legitimate news source. He listens to AM Hate radio all day then reads hard right conservative news sites and watches Fox. Is he 'deciding' the news he wants to hear or is he brainwashed?
I've noticed this with all Republicans nowadays. I have a couple relatives and one co worker who I would describe as moderate Republicans who I can actually have an honest debate with,but anymore these 'new Republicans' are all about "I'm right and you are wrong". They are convinced I and 'my kind' have a gay agenda we are forcing on the American People. They are certain that Democrats HATE America. They know for a fact Obama is not a US citizen,is a Muslim, and wants to destroy America as we know it.
So, when you watch these two idiots on Bill's show ignore what Obama says in the Rose Garden and carry on with their lies,you really have to wonder about their mental condition. Winning at all cost,even if we have to cheat and lie and pretend someone didn't say what he actually said.
