In reply to the discussion: Shit! David Frum 'Republicans Have Been Lied To & Exploited By A Conservative Entertainment Complex' [View all]wildeyed
(11,243 posts)39. When I realized that Google was returning search items based on my profile,
I got really scared. I am a straight-up liberal but critical thinking is important to me, and how can I do that if I only see partisan posts and articles? I have been trying to mix up my Twitter feed (where I do a lot of political obsessing) but really struggled to find conservatives to follow who are not posting either racist/sexist/homophobic comments or flat out lies with regularity. Which is sad and says a lot about where their real issues lie.
I don't think I am a minority here. Like you, I just post less when I see the crazy happening. Life is too short to spend it all arguing with strangers on the internet.

But who will tell that to the Republicans when they only listen to the ones who are lying to them?

I'm with you, I've been paying attention to Frum for years. He shoots no blanks.

Nice to see an ex-Bushie with a conscience. Anyone know what he stands to gain from this?
