Ann Coulter, etc., etc, listed................. Why are Conservatives the only ones who read? Do Democrates read only those books approved by Oprah?

1. Yes and fox has the highest ratings, if you compare them with each of their compeitiors, but when you compare them with all of them that are supposedly "liberal biased", their market share is pretty poor. FOX's rating would drop if there were similar stations that told right-wingers what they wanted to hear. Its called selection. right-wingers believe a few people who tell them what they want to hear, while liberals have a larger selection to fee their intellectual curiosity.
2. I prefer to read books that actually contain facts...
3. Hahaha. Let's correctly word your question, shall we? Why are Conservatives the only ones willing to let others think for them? I doubt very seriously if Conservatives read more than Liberals. Have you talked to a Conservative? Most have not the slightest idea what's going on in the world and are woefully uneducated on science and logic and history.
4. Haha. No, I'm afraid I think conservatives only read books that mirror their ideologies. I think the snake oil salesman Kevin Trudeau actually makes the NYT Bestseller list. Just goes to show the American public will buy any garbage with enough spin behind it.
5. The way the right wing propogates their hate speech is thru attacking and misinformation assembled in books and so they can use their hate of Obama to make a personal income like Sarah Palin. So....Slander the left all you want. You are funny for you just dont know any liberal books or political books from the other side and that was perfect in its ignorance, Dude, I am Your asistant to the truth amongst ther right wing noise machine. Daivd
6. Democrats prefer a wider variety of books. They read just as much as conservatives; they just don't all read the same thing like conservatives. Democrats are confident enough in their beliefs that they don't need to constantly validate themselves with literature.
7. Apparently they are illiterate, that is the only explanation for their utter ignorance to the destruction this administration is causing.
8. It's because the political wind is shifting back to the Republicans. And Americans are getting pissed off at the current administration. That, and none of the books you mentioned are picture books.
9. Your question really "pulled" the cream of the Liberal mind set. Such quippy and sarcastic remarks, right off the top of their head. And of course, none of these "people" saw any harm from Obamas attempt to shut out Fox News, to the point where even the Liberal media HAD to take a stand because it compromised them. Or Obamas "adolescent" temper tantrum at Fox that he was "advised" to NOT be openly speaking about, so let his "lackeys" take the heat. Or the "gag" order against Humana, because they were "expressing" an opinion against Obamas Healthcare Bill............he WANTED to shut down Free Speech............does that count for ANYTHING to a Liberal these days ? Or during Obamas "campaign" when he had his "other" lackeys attempt to have an NRA commercial STOPPED from being shown, by threatening to take campaign ads to competitor news outlets. THESE are the "actions" of a POTUS of the greatest Democracy in the world ? Trying to silence opposing criticism of his almightyness ? THAT'S Chicago alley politics, not FIT for a President.
10. Conservatives are the only ones who read their incestuous books. Watch Fox News all day, then read the books the same people write. No other books, just those. Then refer to the liberal waste of paper The New York times, which magically transforms from liberal rag to legitimate source when it prints something you like. It's the liberals who are stupid, with their high SAT scores and Harvard degrees which they get reading no books. New York, Masachusetts, and California-- all full of ignorant, illiterate liberals. And, oddly, also full of the best schools in the country. How many good schools are in red states? Ooowww, not so much fun to think about that. What was your point again?
11. I believe they don't read much of anything. I have seen so many answers here on the Health Care Bill from the left that are just blatantly false. I watched the debates all day Saturday and the Republicans countered the Democrats false claims with the sections from their Bill that proved they were lying. Here is an example I came across doing research. http://www.berkshireeagle.blogspot.com/
12. They have all read the :" Audacity of Hope" by Obama.. and now just can't bring themselves to read anything else.... it is their bible!
13. Basically, Liberals don't read. At least they don't buy books. If they read books, they would not be Liberals, for the facts and concepts would be clear to them.
14. Don't be so naive. These books are bought up in bulk by right wing organizations, giving them the appearance of being best sellers. Case in point, that piece of drivel Sarah Palin just put out.
15. They smart like Sarah Palin be
