Conservatives want to be lied to

If you know conservatives, you pretty much know my title is dead accurate.  Conservatives live in a fantasy world that has expanded exponentially due to Fox "News", rightwing radio and a host of conservative and rightwing organizations that create their own false reality and ship it to our conservative friends and many conservative enemies.  I say enemies not because I want them to be my enemy, but they are so off the deep end on Fox and rightwing crack and refuse to get clean, that until they truly have a "come to Jesus moment" they will never get better.  They will harm you and me and themselves and don't care.  That is why they are our enemies.  Many of, if not all of conservatives believed Mormon cult leader, Mitt Romney, was cruising to a popular and electoral vote landslide.  Why?  Well because of stuff like this--

Morris projected a 5% popular vote victory for Romney and 325 Electoral Votes as well.  No where even close.  But, conservatives believed it.  Even their candidate was under this delusion--

They had no clue.  Why?  Not only did they believe their own propaganda, but also the propaganda of those on Fox that kept promoting a Romney win with little to no evidence.  This leads me to that conservatives just want to be lied to.  That's it.  They don't want to deal in reality.  They are living in an alternative reality bubble.  The ones who realize they are not, act like children throwing temper tantrums because their guy lost.

This sums up the conservatives want to be lied to rather well--

You live in the world and you can't do God's work living in a rightwing bubble and being constantly lied to to make yourself feel better or angry about "the other".  You do God and yourself dishonor when you willingly believe in lies (Satan is the father of lies) and turn around and claim you are "Christian" and probably the "best Christian around"--which would be another great column on conservative delusion.  Anyway, God is patient and you have time to repent.
