For a quantitative analysis paper I titled, "Testing Constraints of Belief Systems," where I ran an ANOVA analysis to see what self-identified group, liberal, independent, or conservative, would be most willing to give the FBI more powers to investigate terrorism, even if it interfered with civil liberties.

Surprise, surprise: When controlling for fear, the group most willing to give more powers to the FBI, even at the cost of civil liberties, were liberals.

Now, what are you complaining about? You don't understand it, so you say I'm obfuscating?

Let me explain it to you like you're a Republican:

Winner is winner.

Winner tell you what to think.

Stupid people do stupid thing.

Stupid people loser.

No be stupid

Hate stupid people.

Punish stupid people.

No think why stupid people stupid.

Make head dizzy.

No think.

Yes hate.

Feel good.
