Now I can start to see why some Freepers think the way they do. While driving my kids through Missouri and Oklahoma, I spun the dial to catch the local radio flavor. While I never caught AAR, I was constantly bombarded with Rush/Hannity/O'Reilly. If that's all you get to hear, then no wonder people's views are warped.
On Sunday driving back through Oklahoma I got to hear a ad for a congressional race between 2 Democrats. The candidate who the ad was for stated that his opponent is getting 80% of his funding from "radical eastern liberals who want to force their views on Oklahoma" such as (gasp!) abortion on demand.
The conservatives are really pounding the "wild eyed radicals from the liberal eastern establishment who want to force your sons and daughters to have gay sex and kill babies while your tax dollars pay for it all" message. With no opposing view points, no wonder the race is as close as it is.
