A study at Dartmouth found that 45 percent of Democrats say they would be uncomfortable rooming with a Republican. Comparatively, only 12 percent of Republicans said rooming with a Democrat would make them uncomfortable.

My anecdotal evidence bears this out. Progressives tend to be far more intolerant of opposing viewpoints than conservatives.

I would find it uncomfortable being a roomate with an outspoken holocaust denier. A holocaust denier probably wouldn't find it uncomfortable being my roommate. I would wager this generalizes pretty well to holocaust accepters and deniers as a whole.

Is the takeaway from this that holocaust deniers are more accepting people?
