It’s kind of scary the way the conservatives are so willing to be misled. But, haven’t you found that those who are mendacious by nature are the most likely to be misled – nay, deluded – by mendacity?

There are many deluded people out there of all political leanings.
People need to develop their critical thinking skills but it is too easy to just follow the herd.
"Ignorance is bliss" is no justification or excuse when they know the true facts.
You’re spot on about critical thinking skills. Our schools don’t really help kids learn critical thinking anymore. They’re bogged down by the system, with no room to do more than teach to the tests.
I never liked that “ignorance is bliss” colloquialism. Ignorance is just ignorance – period.
