Want to understand how different Democrats and Republicans are? Check out this chart on news consumption over the last week, courtesy of the Pew Research Center.
Nearly half of all liberal Democrats said they were closely following the story of racist comments made by Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling. Less than one in five conservative Republicans said the same. On the other hand, almost four in 10 conservative Republicans said they were closely following the formation of the Benghazi House select committee, while just 15 percent of liberal Democrats said the same.
The reality made plain by these numbers? That the difference between Democrats and Republicans is beyond simple disagreements on a set of mutually agreed upon decisions. Instead, it's founded in the fact that the two simply don't care about -- or, at the very least, aren't paying attention to -- the same things at the same time. The Benghazi committee is a perfect example. For Democrats -- elected officials and the party base -- it's a sideshow issue (at best). But, many Republicans are following it extremely closely and believe that the committee is far more than a fishing expedition aimed at damaging President Obama and/or Hillary Clinton.

Fairly compelling evidence of idiocy here.Sorry it has to happen in my country.
Agree wholeheartedly. The Republican Party should be disbanded.
The Both party should disbanded for misuses power and people and started by Banker Party.
Republicans are walking right into a Clinton trap with this rabbit hole.
WOW.. Idiots. These types of surveys are not statistically significant and show nothing. They do nothing but stir emotion and cause people to say stupid things like, The Republican party should be disbanded... now that is an intelligent comment. Wake up, the media is molding your mind and if you believe the Republican party should be disbanded, the logic following would indicate that you want a Socialist society. The vast majority of America strongly disagrees with you, but if that is what you want there are plenty of countries who would welcome you.. try Greece or Spain, Russia or China... But if you don't like it here, go somewhere else.
Liberals have been victimized by the psychological conditioning of the Communists (democrats).
Liberals have a flaw that allows them to be imprinted with triggers.
They are weak minded, susceptible people.
This is why Democrats hate republicans and conservatives. They know they cannot exploit us in the way they can exploit liberal stupidity and weakness.
The report forgot one:
The Lib Dems are morons
