That the design of a constitutional democracy calls for continuous negotiations is of no consequence to a movement of puppets driven by their master to serve only one goal. If you listen to the programmers (Beck, O'Reilly, Hannity, etc), you hear a continuous stream accusations toward their perceived enemy, which happens to be anyone who doesn't agree with every aspect of their message. The tactic is to accuse the enemy of doing whatever it is you are doing in order to divert attention away from your own misdeeds. It works. At least it certainly works with the Tea Party followers. They nod their heads in agreement as their favorite commentator presents a totally fictitious scenario and pronounces, "You didn't hear that in the main stream media! They just tell you what they want you to hear!"


When Beck tells the world that there is no such thing as global warming, he accuses the left of lying to you for their own personal gain. He is telling you that because he gets paid millions to tell you that and, without defense against the scientific evidence his only argument has to be that they are lying. With all the right-wing so called modern conservative commentators you get a heavy dose of, "They are coming after me. They don't want me to tell you the truth." For the simple of mind, this reinforces the image that the other side is lying and supposedly garners some sympathy for the commentator who is standing up to the evil of the other side (all for a mere $30 million a year).
