    That is my sister in a nutshell. She lives in the beltway and works for the Washington Post and is surrounded with one and only one political idea. Once confronted by any new idea not covered by a DNC talking point, she is horrified...

    Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views.

    Great Leader? LOL phrases like this that are obviously trying way to hard to say something that's not true usually come of badly for the person saying them. This is not a totalitarian society. Cut the crap.

    Obama has a lock on the media and until recently the TV comics would not make jokes at his expense. So yes, they control the flow of information and a lot of people have never been exposed to an anti-Obama point of view.

    Don't follow your question. The only folk I 'undermine' are folk who are simply too stupid to vote, like the 'undecided' at this point. Folk who pay attention and have taken a stand, those I either support or disagree with.

    They are the same folk who actually believed the cartoon strawman version of Romney only to discover in the first debate that their entire view was simply silliness based on propaganda.
