Reply #275: Well, a little different for me --

I took a chance on Obama because everyone else was so impressed with him --

but I should have known because I couldn't listen to his speeches. However,

no matter what you think you know, you can't go anywhere alone. This whole

thing has to move together as a huge voting block. And it is huge.

All we're facing is what citizens have always faced -- corruption of government --

organized criminal activity.

But will agree with this -- everyone needs their BS meters turned waaay up higher!!

TV is a large part of our problem --

What everyone has to understand is how fake everything the right wing does --

As Cheney said, "The rightwing creates the reality and the rest of you live it" --


Keep in mind that every issue the right wing resurrects is something long settled in

the past -- they're pulling it out of mothballs -- ignoring all arguments and rules

against it and using naked power to put it back in play. They are barreling through --

refusing to blink, refusing to back down. I also fear that the Koch Bros. T-BAGGERS

have been created expressly to try to increase the aggressiveness of our political

discussions -- from coming to town hall meetings with rifles slung over their shoulders --

to spitting on members of Congress.


There's only one way the right wing can rise and that's via political violence and we've

had 50+ years of that and more. That and stolen elections, of course. And lies.


The GOP gave start up funds for the Christian Coalition in the 1980's --

Richard Scaife funded Dobson's organization and other wealthy right wingers financed

Bauer's group.

The GOP/"pro-lifers" have closed clinics by bombing them and murdering doctors --

seemingly funded by militia groups -- but they also went to methadone clinics to hire

protesters to stand outside clinics.

They politicized the NRA and used it to target liberals and moderates in both parties.

The Koch Bros. are now financing the T-BAGGERS thru Freedom Works a PR firm which

guarantees them publicity.

It's all faked -- and more.


This is a liberal nation -- and the proof of that is the reality that the right wing

has to control every possible avenue for truth reaching the public. Not only our

"free press" but newspapers, radio, publishing houses, libraries, on and on.

Any bit of truth is like a pebble hitting a mirror -- it shatters rw myths!


Stick with other Democrats and keep trying to find a way to overturn this fascism!

Keep on tossin' those pebbles!






And just in case you didn't know this ...
