4. Hands over the ears seems to be a common response.
Edited on Mon Feb-01-10 11:57 AM by Cleita
I remember a few years back when Randi Rhodes, who was appearing on C-SPAN slapped down a church lady type (name escapes me) with a few facts and she put her hand on her ears and started shouting, "I can't hear you!"

I don't think you should waste your time because they are so brainwashed with our media and jerks like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck that you can't get through to them as long as their racism and prejudices rule what they think. This bigotry is what Limbaugh and Beck tap into. I don't have an answer to fight this except to keep supporting progressive media shows and progressive candidates. Maybe shear numbers and determination will eventually break up this propaganda war by the right wing conservatives.
