    what did you expect? Any time republicans and democrats, conservatives and liberals can find a reason to argue they will, no matter how stupid that reason is.

    I haven't seen any study about that. We do know that the Blue states pay more in taxes and the Red states receive more in Federal Aid. So by that there would be more conservatives living off of the government.

    ever heard of google? the "stats" are there if you want it.

    Over at the Fourth Branch, they've got a nice map showing the states that receive more than a dollar back for every dollar they pay in taxes (which they've coded red), and the states that receive less than a dollar back for every dollar they pay in taxes (which they've coded blue). Just to repeat: Red states are getting a good deal, and blue states a bad one. Here's the map:

    Sorry, Jo Mama, but your facts contradict my pre-conceived notion so your facts must be explained another way.

    based on what? The facts were presented to you because you asked for them. Now for some reason you are ignoring them, and making up something else.

    Just to make it clear, it's the conservatives that have an issue with this (as presented by fox noise). Everyone else is just trying to say how dumb it is to make an issue of this. It's a non-issue and nothing wrong with defending that it's a non-issue.

    I think O'Reilly is starting to like Jon, and vice versa. He was much more concessionary (read: not as overbearing) this time around when Jon made good points, and they actually seemed interested in having a discussion. Their agents must have told them that continuing these things is good for them and the networks.

    No, it's just that O'Reilly has trouble arguing with intelligent people.
