To be fair, things work the same way for "liberals".
It's a cognitive process called biased assimilation. Basically, what it means is that people (all people) tend to reject information that contradicts an existing belief while simultaneaously giving more weight and importance to information that confirms that belief.
We all do it - it's just that we progressives are correct to reject conservative nonsense. ;)
