It's official

MANIFESTO

Conservatives are wimps.
A study to be published next year at University College London ... shows that people with conservative tendencies have a larger amygdala and a smaller anterior cingulate than other people. The amygdala -- typically thought of as the "primitive brain" -- is responsible for reflexive impulses, like fear. The anterior cingulate is thought to be responsible for courage and optimism. This one-two punch could be responsible for many of the anecdotal claims that conservatives "think differently" from others.
Who knew that Fox News had a handle on such cerebral phenomena?
