(951 posts)9. Proceed with caution
The Fox News (False News) watchers I know are very wounded right now. I've tried for years to find a way to show them the truth, but they have been systematically mind-controlled not just by Fox. There's a machine at work which they cannot see even if you offer proof. George Lakoff describes it very well, and the Obama campaigns appear to have benefited greatly from his work.
If you love any of these people as I do, let them grieve. Some of them, like any other addicts will come to their senses on their own or not at all. When their eyes and ears open just a little is the moment I will offer help.

Yep, Democrats have an unfair deal. Make your margins large enough where they can't steal it.

A government smaller than what? Smaller than whatever the size of the government at any given time?
