1. Frightening. Looks like the people polled have OD'd on Fox News.

These are the same folks who believe that we found WMDs in Iraq and that Hussein was responsible for 9/11.

7. I don't think it would be difficult to convince them that little green.........
.......people have been visiting earth also. All it would take is for Hannity, Beck or Limbaugh to say it. These are the same type of people that were marching in the streets in Germany in 1933. Scary shit.

4. I agree,
I think Roger Ailes should be prosecuted for sedition and/or treason. At the VERY LEAST inciting a disturbance. Too bad that what was once our Democratic party is in collusion with these corporations, just like the rethugs.....show me the money....IMO one good (and there are others) idea would be to have Progressive,that have been elected as Democrats, to "switch parties", not to the rethugs, but to a newly created Progressive Party. They could field their own Presidential candidate (Bernie Sanders?) and do the peoples work, not the corporations. That, or we should hold another Constitutional Congress, to decide and direct the type of government we want. With the FOX "news" crowd as eligible participants, that could be scary...

5. When we watched this segment
last night we discussed these polls.

My in-laws are full time Fox watchers. My wife dearly loves her sister, of course, and finds it hard to believe that she would subscribe to this insanity. I told her her sister would be shocked to find we still support President Obama-a non-citizen that wants the terrorists to win. It took a moment to sink in.

Imagine, in the face of the full time propaganda from the M$M, the SCOTUS has decided the corporations just don't have enough influence.

8. You are correct this is the tradegy of allowing Fox News
to spread hate and lies. There must be some way to make them to become accountable to the truth.

3. I still maintain that Faux News has much to do with these people living in such an altered reality.
Frankly, it's dangerous for the country. Politically, it leaves us paralyzed and focused on all sorts of total BS.

9. Sadly Faux News is only a symptom in this.
The real disease is the state of ignorance and vile hatred that so many Americans live their lives steeped in.

Its as if these people WANT to remain uninformed to avoid acknowledging the ugly reality of their own words and behaviors. The constant projecting of their own darkest thoughts (Nazi-this and facist-that and don't even THINK about their terror of "teh gay") is truly disheartening.
