35. Concocted Delusional Propaganda vs Protest of Mis-deeds
There is no equivalence between the trumped up delusional nonsense of the right wing, be it the Whitewater fabrications, the Vince Foster conspiracy or the unjustified demonization of Obama vs the admitted acts of torture by Bush and the lies he told on the way to war in Iraq.

The democrats and the media have failed in calling into question the factual basis behind these things and why they are NOT equivalent. The lack of backbone in the dems leads to an ever smaller voice, an ever more right shift to appease the bullies on the right. This will never work and can only lead to yet more intimidation and ultimately to fascism.

The right makes up nonsense to destroy the dems. The left attempts to bring FACTS into discussion. The right then projects their own behavior onto the dems, and the media buys it and the dems refuse to fight. After all, if we (the repukes) make up malicious stuff, it, then the dems must do it too.

To think this is equivalent is in fact one of the problems.
