Full title: Politics and Eye Movement: Liberals Focus Their Attention on 'Gaze Cues' Much Differently Than Conservatives Do.

This study actually makes a certain amount of sense. People with liberal beliefs will follow the gaze of an image on a computer screen. Appearently they believe the direction of the image gaze is important and they will also gaze in that direction. Conservatives however do not follow the gaze on the computer image. It's only an image, right?

Interesting.

I wonder where they found any liberals with their eyes open....

Leftists are trained to obey big brother. They can’t live without his face.

My general experience is that liberals are easily distracted by shiny, moving objects, witness the election of Barack Obama as President.

This is like the whole homo argument — people are wired that way. But they aren’t. How many people do you know who used to be liberal and are now conservative? It was a change of perspective and a deeper appreciation of how society works that moved most people’s ideology, not some innate change.

It’s an interesting study but I think it has to do more with secondary parallels in people’s personalities.

The left is easily distracted and can’t concentrate on the task at hand. It also shows a tendency to “follow the crowd” and not think for themselves.
