What has the man accomplished, besides in your face lies, fear-tactic hypocrisy, and one of the worst Primary election presidential runs of all time (including the slogan of Tested. Ready. Now.,which sounds like an advertisement for a male prostitute). On a positive note, the "NY Times" did cover Rudy's unchallenged mishaps.KAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899278822462473474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428824763182540039.post-88777071571074427842010-01-31T02:34:40.837-08:002010-01-31T02:34:40.837-08:00I like to think that as well magpie, but I see and...I like to think that as well magpie, but I see and hear many things on a daily basis that make me sometimes question that assumption.JBWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13293642610215334516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428824763182540039.post-9004211486469538342010-01-31T00:25:28.172-08:002010-01-31T00:25:28.172-08:00I have vast reserves of cynicism.

The...They don't get away with it. Not forever.<br /><br />They have the moment but the truth catches up, as it always does eventually.<br />The strategy of the reactionary Right has been to spill verbal pollution till it reaches a critical mass that entangles the Obama administration in fear of what the public can be made to fear. Liking sowing mines in the political landscape that double as booby traps as well talking-point ammo dumps for the dufus Right. <br />But they haven't reached that critical mass after a year of full-on horseshit over some of the most sensitive topics in America: Health Care, Torture, War, you name it, which tells me they are ... fucked.<br /><br />You're right when you say only a minority do their homework... that's all it takes thanks to the Internet. One guy comes to work the next day and says "no actually, what I read is....". And then the political capital is spent. Their bluster is done, their lungs are deflated, and they look like dicks for being caught out.<br /><br />I wouldn't worry too much. It is the political weapon of the really desperate. And like their real-world equivalent... they don't care if innocents are hurt and the country scorched.<br />Not saying anything here you don't already know, but....<br /><br />It will not work anymore. <br /><br />And if you're one of the one in ten who doesn't have a job, then "hope" is far from passé. You haven't got time to buy into elaborate lies. And when you get that job, in the next three years, and health care to boot, THEY will be the facts you hold onto.magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08690258860393548951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428824763182540039.post-67594253445026380952010-01-30T08:08:23.733-08:002010-01-30T08:08:23.733-08:00What's in a word, Juliana?

Juliana doesn't have the brains to understand, and even if he did, he's too damn petty to pick on anything but Obama's choice of words.Leslie Parsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13743778482517634823noreply@blogger.com
