Bush and Kerry Supporters Have Separate Realities

Posted by michael on from the never-the-twain-shall-meet dept.

corngrower writes "A report by the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland correlates voters' perceptions of world attitudes and events with their choice in candidates. It's an interesting read, and shows voters supporting Kerry as being more in tune with the events and world attitudes surrounding the war in Iraq."

    Corddry: How does one report the facts in an unbiased way when the facts themselves are biased?

    Stewart: I'm sorry, Rob, did you say the facts are biased?

    Corddry: That's right Jon. From the names of our fallen soldiers to the gradual withdrawal of our allies to the growing insurgency, it's become all too clear that facts in Iraq have an anti-Bush agenda.

    Yes, Ben and Jerry's is on there, but I hardly think of the Ford Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and etc. as bastions of liberal ideology.

    Huh? Of course the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations or bastions of liberal ideology! What do you think they are?

    I took the battery out of my clock. It's steadfast and resolute when telling me the current time. It has even been proven correct on occasion.

    Surveys have shown that people who agree with me are 22.6% more intelligent than those who do not! They are also found to be more attractive and live longer.

    We don't. We categorize them as stupid because they support Bush.

    Son, it's time to let daddy have the computer back. This is a place for grown-ups. You go back outside and play, and stop calling names. Try to act like a big boy. OK?

    One other thing, son... If George gets picked as the most popular boy, we don't want to see you pouting. Go to your room to do that. Now off with you.
