The level of unreasoning confirmation bias on the wingnut sites is really getting sickening. I get so pissed off sometimes when reading through some of their threads. Anything said by the media that doesn’t conform to their views is dismissed out of hand. Yet when something is reported incorrectly or someone makes up a story about a report that supports what they want to believe it becomes gospel. Countless words written by thousands of people and reported in hundreds of news stories say Obama is not a Muslim yet you read…

OMG LIBRUL MEDIA COVERUP AND LIES HES A SECRET MUSLIM YOUR ALL BRAINWASHED SHEEP!!!

If someone points out that an anti-Obama article they are citing was proven incorrect or worse that it used evidence that was simply made up and you get…

OMG I ALWAYS LISTEN TO THE NEWS ITS TRUSTWORTHY YOU PEOPLE SAYING ITS FAKE ARE BRAINWASHED SHEEP!!!

Arrrrgggghh!
