Reply #29: Or you can just divide the population by 2

The total population of American Voters, American opinion-makers, the politically active from any side....

There are those who swallow the repeated lies, hook and line and tea bag, and there are those who see through them.

Even those folks who vote with the propaganda machine have a sense that they're drinking the Kool-Aid, that they've made a bargain -- in exchange for having their ignorance, prejudices and limitless sense of entitlement validated on a daily basis, they get to feel like they're "aware" of public policy issues, and "informed."

Some day, the whole pyramid of mendacity-reinforcing-self-deception will come tumbling down.

People who know better will start to show some courage. They'll start to speak up against the constant, repeated barrage and onslaught of ideological bullying. A foundation built on bluster, bull shit and bigotry can only stand so long.

...It's certainly true, though, that the RW Tools have a huge advantage in terms of dollars-per-minute of air time. Thank the FCC, the Supremems (Citizens United) and Bill Clinton (Telecommunications Act of 1995) for that.
