Most false e-mail chains attack liberals
Sometimes these viral claims come from liberals maligning conservatives, as when President Bush was falsely accused in 2004 of wanting to bring back military conscription, or when Sarah Palin was falsely accused in 2008 of banning a long list of books from the Wasilla library, a list that included some books that had not even been published at the time. But most of the false claims we are asked about are authored by people attacking Democrats and liberals. We don’t know why.
I’ll tell you why… because the right panders to conservative Christians. An audience bred and groomed to believe and repeat (but not question) anything which comes from a respected authority figure, regardless of how false or disproven the information.
Yes, they are easier to lie to because they believe without fact, investigation or question. Additionally you can’t talk them out of it with facts, they “stay the course” no matter what. i.e. Nanananana I can’t hear you!
How hard is this to figure out?
