Bob Vasquez, those blinded by ideology are not limited to the right side of the political spectrum. In point of fact, the spectrum of ideological bias is heavily weighted to the left. At least Beck is examining the source information, not so the left side’s pundits. I was an uninvested Democrat until I observed the liberal bias against me, then an invested republican until I observed they’re doing the same as the democrats. Now I’m a conservative libertarian independent. You’re finger pointing and haughty assumption of superiority indicates your own ideological blindness. It seems Paley’s observation is more relevant now than when he said it back in the 1790’s. “contempt before investigation cannot help but keep men in everlasting ignorance.” Please see my blog post on experts at http://JudgeRight.blogspot.com Isn’t the curse of prejudice defined as predetermined judgment based on non relevant information such as race, religion, or creed? You have demonstrated a classic representation of prejudice by your comment and by extension, so do the vast majority of Democrats as they both accuse the Republican Party of the same sin, and refuse to examine their own behavior and motivation to pre-judge based on race, religion, gender, and creed.
