As long as people are going on about the Obamamaniacs and sheep, let's play the devil's advocate and spin this the other way around.
Are people also selective to information they (and only they) resonate with to a point where it MUST be true?
So, if someone comes along and talks this and talks that about another person, they must be right because that other person is hated/disliked/scorned by others?
Suppose Barack Obama said some stuff about Alan Keyes and I said, "Why Barry, you're right! I hate that Alan Keyes!" What would that imply?
Just a few thoughts. I want to figure out where people are coming from. I also want to know why Canadians care so much about the US Political system.
