Opus 2014-211: On the Street: Liberal Conversation

Low information voters (LIV) are everywhere. 

Today I started the day in a hospital waiting room and was forced to listen to a conversation.  The man being quoted was a typical liberal.  He was Jewish but did not keep kosher or feel that Israel was anything special.  He voted for Obama.  He thought Obamacare would be just fine.  What made it all clear to me was when he was asked if he know who Sean Hannity was.  He answered, “No.”

I didn’t know that you could go that far into the cave.

I have never listened to Jon Stewart.  I have never listened to Rachel Maddow.  I could make a long list of left wing, talking heads I have never listened to, but I know who they are.  Some I would even recognize.  How can people be so ignorant that they do not know someone like Sean Hannity?

I don’t ask them to listen, just pay attention to something outside your sushi restaurant.
