There are no conservatives who think that.
Preposterous.

[wac3rd]

I view Liberals the same way I view Jihadist Muslims and drug cartels.

The enemy.

[WayneS]

Maybe their mother’s taught them to try to see the good in people.

PS - Bill O’Reilly is NOT a conservative.

[Steely Tom]

'Cause if they get too strident, they'll lose their cushy TV jobs.

Television is a "cool" medium, remember? Brutal honesty doesn't work well on TV. Of course, another factor is that, when people sit down to watch TV, they want to escape reality. Projecting reality on TV, especially about people who want to kill you, your family, your way of life, and your country, is just too upsetting.

[SpaceBar]

It’s a form of denial. Also it’s easier to attribute to incompetance what is probably in truth completely deliberate.

[Frantzie]

Sheep watching O TV - getting brainwashed daily in between dumb white men TV commercials on how great Mugabe is.

Keep watching - Fox is no better.

[Starboard]

the left is hellbent on destroying America as we know it? It’s not like it’s a far-out conspiracy theory. It’s a well documented ongoing process.

Will John Boehner ever figure this out? He seems hellbent on compromising and enabling more legislative trickery by his Dem pals.

[hinckley buzzard]

OReilly is merely a sellout. Medved is a passable movie critic. That's about it.

[Frantzie]

O’Reillly, Beck, Coulter, Medved, Hewitt, Boortz, Ingraham and a few others are anti-birthers. Stooges for Fox Al Waleed TV.

[prairiebreeze]

RINO’s?? No real conservative that I know thinks this.

[Logical me]

Why is it so hard for these simple minded conservatives to realize that Obama is a hard core communists trained Muslim. He, with the help of the communists party (formally the Democratic Party) have destroyed much of America and many never recover.

You have to have some kind of filter. When you automatically assume that all the things you want to believe about people on the other side of a controversy are true, you start to part company with reality.

You have to sift through those things you want to believe to see which are supported by evidence and which aren't -- what's really likely to be true and what isn't. Some of the things one dreams up certainly may be true. Others not so much.

Good question. They’re crooks.

[Hunton Peck]

I would never accuse O’Reilly of being conservative or acting in good faith.

As for Medved, I haven’t paid much attention to him since I heard him say “films are nourishing”. Don’t wanna listen to anyone who might make be barf at any moment.

[GeronL]

Republican politicians spend way too much time being nice to the other side.

[GOPJ]

I’ve met a few liberals who were ‘in the know’ - but for the most part they’re clueless. Which is kind of comforting for me. In a real crunch - some of them would flip to our side.

[karnage]

Because it’s the Stupid Party.

[The Big Boo]

why would anybody think that Republicans (socialists) are acting in good faith? You know the liberal hates American and is against you. The Republican (socialist) will say he is with you, then back stab you and implement the Democrats (communists) policies. Who are you more foolish believing?

The Big Boo

“Why Do Some Conservatives ...”

“Yet Bill O’Reilly and the more libertarian John Stossel...’

It would be nice if Horowitz actually mentioned some conservatives in his article. I like the guy, but you think, having been a leftist, he would realize that O’Reilly is a moderate liberal and Stossel a socially liberal libertarian, neither of which qualifies one as being a conservative.

[KeyLargo]

I love it yesterday when Levin referred to bill o'reilly, AKA: 'The leprechaun' as "the FOX 8:00 o'clock guy". Mark was talking about how O'Reilly is such a kiss-up to Obama in hopes of getting more appearances on his show where he can kiss Obama's ass some more and generate more money for himself. But I guess those two Irish guys Obama and O'reilly stick together.
