You just provided a perfect example of what your idiot sidekick was referring to, sham-man.

Firstly, you need to go search "wikipedia" for confirmation bias; I don't think it means what you think it means. I already knew about these surveys, I already knew what WR was arguing. There is nothing he told me that confirmed my own beliefs because my own beliefs were already based on the same surveys he cited.
I argued
against what WR said. Educated republicans(not you) are
very smart. Do those "educated republicans" make up the majority of republicans? Hell no....most of them are likely redneck trailer trash hillbillies just like you.
You want an example of confirmation bias? It's ironic, but you're the one who posted it.
Btw, here are a few of the qualities that characterize today's dumbed-down libtard democrats:
1. Lazy.
2. Inarticulate.
3. Hide behind cliches.
4. Unable to argue without calling other people racist.
5. So insecure they constantly need to view themselves as better than other people.
And just to be clear, shamfucker, that's not my summary - it's from one of your own ilk:
From the blog of Fredrik deBoer, an academic in rhetoric and composition, May 13:
"Criticism of today’s progressives tends to use words like toxic, aggressive, sanctimonious, and hypocritical. I would not choose any of those. I would choose lazy. We are lazy as political thinkers and we are lazy as culture writers and we are lazy as movement builders. We ward off criticism of our own bad work by acting like that criticism is inherently anti-feminist or anti-progressive. We seem spoiled, which seems insane because everything is messed up and so many things are getting worse. I guess having a Democratic president just makes people feel complacent. Well, look: as a political movement we are in pathetic shape right now. We not only have no capacity to move people who don’t already share our worldview, we seem to have no interest in doing so. Our stock arguments are lazy stacks of cliches. We seem to want to confirm everything conservatives say about our inability to argue without calling other people racist. We can’t articulate why our vision of the future is better than the other side’s, and in fact many of us will tell you that it’s offensive to think that we have an obligation to educate others on that vision at all. We celebrate grassroots activist movements like Black Lives Matter, but we insult them by treating them as the same thing as hashtag campaigns, and we don’t build a broader left-wing political movement that could increase their likelihood of success. We spend all day, every day, luxuriating in how much better we are than other people, having convinced ourselves that the work of politics is always external, never internal. We have made politics synonymous with social competition. We’re a mess."
