I'm not sure what that means ... The problem with demagogues such as Rush and Hannity is that most of their listeners, in my experience, have lost their ability to analyze events critically. Rather they favor parroting talking points or emotional reasoning. (this is probably true of liberals, but I don't know any, nor listen to them, nor read their media) A great example is Israel's invasion of Lebanon. I've been saying from day 1 how strategically stupid it was. The facts now bear that out. But that's not because I have 18 years of political commentary experience; any critical analyst could see that. Because that analysis doesn't support Israel, some might call me a "terrorist cheerleader". (the irony being, of course, that unemotional analysis is cheerleading while mindless support isn't.) And the problem with emotional reasoning is that reality never steps in no matter the facts.
