Im getting tired of conservatives who simply blame the media without even thinking about it. The media can be blamed for plenty of things but that doesnt excuse intellectual laziness from us. That was sort of my response at seeing the comment I responded to. It's a mindset of blind allegiance, that admits no facts or truth. It's scary to observe it in a so-called conservative.

"Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear."
-Thomas Jefferson
The quote is actually part of a wider narrative by Jefferson about any kind of blind allegiance.
