Spot on. This is the reason that I look at friends with a liberal or progressive view and shake my head at their ideologies. Mainly, because I'm wondering if they realize what they are saying or believing in. Flabbergasted is a good word to use, from my perspective.   I get that we all have our own opinions and viewpoints on things, but we ALL have the option to turn off the TV and come with said opinions and viewpoints on our own, instead of being told what to believe in. I'm waiting for the day the MSM is taken down completely. At least, I hope it is.
