As I think about the rightwingnuts,

who mindlessly believe FOX/PARP, the same way they believe in a LITERAL Bible, I am reminded of a conversation with a close relative a while back. When I mentioned that MANY of the Biblical stories are 'impossible', he countered with a scripture verse that 'proved' they were ALL true. Something about every 'jot and tittle' in the Bible is true, cuz there's a verse the SAYS it's all true, and, he added, the Bible is the 'word of God'. I said the Bible was written by men, and he countered, with a gleam in his eye, Yes, but it was INSPIRED by God, so it is all obviously true. In his mind he had won the discussion and had PROVEN me wrong.
This is the exact mindset that believes the message of FOX/PARP. You can't discuss an issue with someone whose basis of fact is the SAME thing you disagree over. Of COURSE what you believe is the same as the FOX view, when you get your info/beliefs from FOX/PARP. Never mind, WAY too complicated for the sheep mentality that believes 'every jot and tittle' from the Bible, as well as from Rush, Sean and Bill. Nothing new here, but just part of the circular/pretzel logic of 'the flock', who ALL vote Republican, even after the Bush 'reign of error', that they conveniently forget.
Some would say the sheep are harmless, BUT, when they are all herded together, and told how to vote, with Koch money, then it becomes dangerous, as we have seen the damage that a Texas moron(R) in the White House can inflict.
