Why does whom you believe depend upon your political beliefs?

Predictable as the sun coming up tomorrow. Conservatives/Republicans/Fox News take Kavanaugh's side; liberals/Democrats/MSNBC take Ford's side.

A study I pointed to a few years ago had 500 participants, 1/2 Democrats and Republicans. Each person was shown two health plans, with half shown one purportedly from the Democrats and one from the Republicans, and the other half vice versa. Didn't matter the plan, didn't matter the party affiliation. 75% of everyone supported "their" party's plan and trashed the others.

People sure are a slave to their ideology, for the most part.
