    Why can't conservatives believe the truth?

    Political scientists Brendan Nyhan and Jason Reifler provided two groups of volunteers with the Bush administration's prewar claims that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. One group was given a refutation -- the comprehensive 2004 Duelfer report that concluded that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction before the United States invaded in 2003. Thirty-four percent of conservatives told only about the Bush administration's claims thought Iraq had hidden or destroyed its weapons before the U.S. invasion, but 64 percent of conservatives who heard both claim and refutation thought that Iraq really did have the weapons. The refutation, in other words, made the misinformation worse.
    A similar "backfire effect" also influenced conservatives told about Bush administration assertions that tax cuts increase federal revenue. One group was offered a refutation by prominent economists that included current and former Bush administration officials. About 35 percent of conservatives told about the Bush claim believed it; 67 percent of those provided with both assertion and refutation believed that tax cuts increase revenue.

    In a paper approaching publication, Nyhan, a PhD student at Duke University, and Reifler, at Georgia State University, suggest that Republicans might be especially prone to the backfire effect because conservatives may have more rigid views than liberals: Upon hearing a refutation, conservatives might "argue back" against the refutation in their minds, thereby strengthening their belief in the misinformation. Nyhan and Reifler did not see the same "backfire effect" when liberals were given misinformation and a refutation about the Bush administration's stance on stem cell research.

    The US Constitution and the Declaration of Independence were given to us by The Founders who were knowledgable of John Locke and his values of freedom, and the history of other countries were governments failed. The Founders wanted the federal government have the weakest power were the people were sovereign, now we have the opposite, the constant attack saying this government is a democracy is an out right lie, it is suppose to be a REPUBLIC, democractic governments in the Founders eyes were considered government by masses "mobocracy" what ever the whim of the people, values and morals are what you think they are instead of from GOD who loves. democracy is first a socialistic leaning then the acceptance of pure government control, as our schools have become socialistic and marxist with the influx of this john dewey marixisim, the students will be a product of the state and dumbed down. Ask 100 students if they know the history, why, how and what the people of early colonies went thru to secure against a tyrannical king, why the US Constitution was given, very very few well know, its called dumbing down of America!
