This is what happens when you watch Faux News – studies have shown that people who watch Faux know less about current affairs than people who say they don’t pay any attention to the news. The purpose behind the right-wing media is to reinforce bias, not to inform the audience.

Romney’s ’47 Percent’ Rant Reveals a Right Wing Voting Bloc Built on Lies

…

The dissonance is different for different people. For me, it lay in this: I pay federal taxes. Lots of them. I have every year of my adult life. Moreover, I have never taken a dime of government largesse and am not in any sense dependent on it. And I would never vote for Mitt Romney or the Republicans or their whole every-dog-for-himself philosophy. Nor am I alone. Like millions of other smart Americans, I want a strong and complete social safety net, because I’m smart enough to understand that making sure everyone is cared for appropriately makes the whole of society better for everyone, me included. I might add, for the privileged particularly — even though they’re too stupid and selfish to get that.

…

Cognitive dissonance… Whenever I hear the sheer stupidity and ignorance of the Republicans, I feel more than mere ‘cognitive dissonance’. These days, my mind just goes ‘TILT! Game over.’ Bizzaro World, indeed.

I think Keith Olbermann had the definitive take on this on a vid he posted here (come back Keith! We miss you!) :'(
