No this isn't a rant, this isn't a story about something that happened on Facebook... this is an actual revelation I have recently uncovered and thought it might liven up the conversations here.
I figured it out! We all know the term "Low Information Voter," but do we really grasp exactly how little information the majority of the liberal sheep actually possess? Upon discussing the latest scandals plaguing our current Joke in Chief with my progressive and liberal acquaintances, I've discovered just how far down this rabbit hole goes, er, actually, just how shallow their wealth of information on current events really is. First, the IRS, they know what's going on, but really don't have much of an opinion on it- guess Chris Matthews is still coming to grips with what happened before imparting his viewers with some talking points. Second, the AP-DOJ issue, they don't really understand this, as they aren't paying that much attention to it, so their lack of outrage is all but surprising.
Now for the fun stuff, and some of you who don't converse with liberals/progressives might find this shocking... Benghazi. Perfect example- my co-worker (yes, that one), was reading some Yahoo or FB post, or whatever, about the Benghazi emails being released. Reaction: Deer in the freaking headlights. Yep, that's right sports fans, she didn't have fucking clue what was going on. When I explained what Benghazi was, it didn't even register, as if she had no clue what was going on. I say the word impeachable to describe what happened with the lying, the covering up, the downplaying, the deflections until after the elections, and she gave me the cow chewing on cud look... complete bewilderment. Two other acquaintances, both of whom were 100% in front of the Amendment 64 issue, and the gay marriage issue, hadn't the slightest idea what was going on with not only the recent hearings, but also the Clinton hearing as well. Not a goddamn clue. It's as if they've been on another planet since September, with the exception of the election, and the 42% remark. So there it is, it's not that they're stupid, it's just that they don't know, and frankly, they aren't paying attention. Of course a lot of the credit goes to MSM for being complete failures as human beings in reporting anything outside of whatever the hell there is to talk about that is more important than our government becoming that which the founders warned about. But also, much of blame goes with these individuals that don't get out and seek out the news- I don't rely solely on FNC or TheBlaze.com to get informed, I actively search around (a lot of times I end up on BBC or Breitbart) and try to stay abreast of the current events in our world. But no, if you don't drop it into the liberal bowl, MSNBC and CNN won't spoon feed it to the sheep.
