For the most part, I have found that conservatives are very black and white on issues... there is no real gray area... where liberals are less likely to exhibit that same type of black and white perception and are open to the gray area.

I know that this is kind of off topic to the OP but I just find these facts to be interesting. When you apply it to the Mayweather vs Ortiz fight... almost every liberal I have asked about it points to the same thing... right before the referee looked at the timekeeper (and Mayweather made the knockout) they say that you can clearly see the referee clap his hands... which is the time in signal.

Almost every conservative I have asked about it claims to either have not seen the referee signal time in or that it wasn't clear that he was signaling time in. They also say that Ortiz wasn't ready to fight because the referee confused him and that Mayweather took a cheap shot...
