POPSFox News viewers "more likely ... to have misperceptions" U of Maryland study: "Those who receive most of their news from Fox News are more likely than average to have misperceptions." Love your Fox News, if you like, but challenge it with other sources if you want to have your facts right. And don't allow yourself the laziness of saying, "Oh, you can't trust studies, you know..." FN either attracts or creates mis-informed citizens.

POPSChristians Think Torture Rocks!! Of course I don't support torture and I doubt many Christians really do. But those who identify themselves as CHRISTIANS (all caps) might think differently. Their more old school, Yahweh, fire and brimstone, do as we say (but don't do as we do) or you shall burn in Hell types. Their lives and beliefs are centered on torture, so no surprise there.

POPSIs the GOP out to lunch?
The GOP is "out to lunch" as in porch light on-nobody's home. The GOP has not been mentally there, for some time now. Strange how it could hold so many minds captive with its utterly insane propaganda. What is wrong with people? The GOP should have been laughed off the world stage at the beginning of the Bush reign of nincompoopery. But no, people embraced the blunders, starting with the preemptive Invasion of Iraq and the GOP’s cooked intelligence to launch this phony war. Then, the Terri Schiavo debacle when the GOP joined the religious right to interfere in a local matter. Also, The Marriage amendment, the GOP stuck its nose where it doesn't belong. The GOP JUSTICE SUNDAY frenzy, The GOP hurricane KATRINA incompetence The GOP Bush strut on the deck of the USS Abe Lincoln declaring "Mission Accomplished."Insanity all the way. The GOP lives in fantasy but maybe, since people are growing up, the unhinged, hateful world of the GOP might be fading away. But don't hold your breath.
