Yeah, and the scariest part, like I have pointed out from time to time, is that uneducated people will "believe" a lie even when confronted with real facts...

Prime example was the number of people who still believed that Saddam had something to do with 9/11 even after it had been factually debunked... I mean, I heard the poll in NPR a year after even the Bush administration had publicly stated that Saddam ***did not*** have any involvement with 9/11 but because of the hard sell during the mad-dash-to-invade-Iraq days there were about 30% of the people polled who, in spite of the facts, still ***believed*** the lie???

This is what scares me... I mean, the right wing is so thoroughly brainwashing these people that these people are no longer part of an ***informed electorate*** that Jefferson said the country would need if democracy was to survive...

That is very scary and reminiscent of Gewrmany in the 30's...
