Some observations of behavioral differences between those on the left and those on the right, from my perspective.

There is a common area that I go to which has a TV.

The unwritten rules are that the first person in the area picks the station.

Whenever any station is on, there are no objections, even when there is a someone who is a clear conservative and MSNBC is on.

However when Fox is on, even the news (not the opinion), there are a few that later come into the room, get all frazzeled and start begging to change the channel because it drives them crazy. There is a sense of politeness with most of the people who use the area, so there is usually no argument or on rare occasion, something brief, usually amounting to a comment.

That either means that the left leaning channels are so "right" so anyone can stand them even if they don't agree

Or

Fox is so way out that it is so offense, even their news reports never mind opinion pieces

Or

Perhaps the right leaning people are more open minded (or kind?) and willing to listen to different view points.

I'm still trying to figure that all out.

Then on the news shows where different opinions on an issue are sought - if you blank out faces and muffle the voices so that they are intelligible, you can often tell who is on the left and who is on the right.

The ones on the left will more often interrupt the ones on the right when they are speaking.


Think about both.

I look in the mirror and I am perfect in both looks and personality. Is there a problem with this statement?
