Someone who seeks to make sense of American politics, but delegates the task to a right-wing radio pundit, resulting in a chasm between what is believed to be true and objective reality. - "Joe says that if the icecaps melt, the water level will actually decrease, because ice takes up more space than liquid water."
- "Doesn't he know most of the world's ice is on land, and not floating in the ocean?" - "What can you do? He's a dittohead." |
