This study seems like a giant load of bullshit. What a sly jab. Of course, according to the article I only think so because I lean toward the conservative. Effing science.
In case you can't get to the article for whatever reason, the jist of the study is that liberal are really openminded when it comes to new ideas and science and whatnot, whereas conservatives are really stubborn, which may explain why George Bush won't leave Iraq alone. No, it seriously fucking says that.
I wonder, then, why the left is so against genetically engineered crops? I mean, the science there points towards it being a good thing. I guess the liberals are only super openminded about the stuff they're sure they're right about.

If this study is taken at all seriously, which I doubt it will, then it should be pointed out that maybe the reason Liberals had an easier time recognizing the letter "W" has more to do with their obsession over "Dub-Ya" than anything else. Or am I being too narrow minded.
By the way, this study sticks us between a rock and a hardplace.
We either accept the idea that liberals are liberals and conservatives are conservatives due to brain activity, and that liberals are more openminded to science, or we reject the study all together, which would ultimately prove their point.
A very clever trick.
