Democrats and Republicans are equally full of crap. (Fedora Tip: UnSpace and Grabass)
"Democrats and Republicans alike are adept at making decisions without letting the facts get in the way, a new study shows."
"And they get quite a rush from ignoring information that's contrary to their point of view."
"Researchers asked staunch party members from both sides to evaluate information that threatened their preferred candidate prior to the 2004 Presidential election. The subjects' brains were monitored while they pondered."

Not too suprising. Its why debate os often devolves into shouting matches. My one point of contention with the study may be that if the participants are vary familiar with the issues, they may have already reasoned out why they can ignore certain facts. Their reasoning may be good or bad but they may have already done it at some level.
Naw, on second thought I take it back and I agree with funky, they are all just stupid.
