I cannot personally speak for any party, but I personally do not forward any politically-oriented communication, of which I receive very little.

Liberals are doing everything they can to derail the search for truth in the various scandals that have surfaced over the past few years. They seem to be more about burying what they don't want to know about rather than searching for the truth.

Liberals do on average have more post-secondary education. That makes it much harder to separate them from lies when they're convinced they're too smart to be deceived. Visit /r/politics on Reddit. Its full of young, educated people who will believe anything that lines up with their political beliefs and downvote/reject any stories that are critical of Dems or positive about Repubs. There's even a term for it, the Reddit 'hivemind.'

Yes, "hivemind". Or even better a "hivemind" about "scandals" which don't even exist. There is a reason everyone ignores the Republican screams of death panels, Benghazi, White Water, and all the rest of that nonsense and it because it is nonsense. Only the people who truly have a "hivemind" think other wise. Seriously, EVERY actual journalistic news organization has looked into the facts and admitted there is nothing there but only the retards on the right want to pretend there is because it suits their partisan agenda and distracts from their do nothing obstructionism which they prefer to actually governing.
