I Am An Idiot Freeper and I Believe the Media Lies
October 12 2008 | jveritas

Posted on 10/12/2008 8:07:27 AM PDT by jveritas

It is very sad the number of people on this forum who fell for the lies of the liberal media and consider it as the golden truth. They believe their biased polls, they believe all the fabricated doom and gloom scenarios that the media unleash each minute, they now believe the lies that McCain is fighting with Palin over the style of campaigning, they believe that is all over and we cannot win.

Yet those are the same people who make fun for what they like to call “sheeple” and say that they are controlled by the media but in reality they are worse than any “sheeple” because they fall for all the lies and fabrication that the media spew constantly.

They are the one who lecture Republicans to get a spine or balls or whatever macho word they like to use in each comment they post but yet they have already surrendered and declared all is lost and we cannot win.

For the vast majority of us Freepers we are going to fight and we are going to win and will never believe the lies and fabrications of the media.

1948 ELECTION RESULTS:

Electoral votes: Truman: 303, Dewey: 189.

Popular votes: Truman 49%, Dewey 45%

It's not over, 'til it's over. The election is still very close. Don't forget that 500 votes in Florida made the difference between President Bush or President Gore in 2000.

The media lies, but the American people don’t know that.

You sound like John Lewis. Whiner.

I live in one of the most Republican areas of Missouri. I went out to get the Sunday paper and saw many Obama signs. I didn’t see any McCain signs.

I don’t believe the election can be predicted until a week or two before election day but if McCain don’t win my part of the state in a normal percentage or higher for the Republican candidate then he loses Missouri. He loses Missouri most likely he loses the election.

The polls isn’t scaring me it is the behavior of my neighbors.

There is no doubt in my mind that the media commissions those "registered voter" polls in order to show things in a pro-Democrat slant. At least I can't come with another reason to continually commission polls that are known to be inaccurate.

However, to say that the "likely voter" polls are deliberately biased is to say that capitalism doesn't work. These companies have every reason to make the polls as accurate as they can be; if they are consistently less accurate than their competitors, they lose business. The fact is, the polls are against McCain now because McCain isn't doing very well.

IMHO, this is a direct result of the "win at any costs, even if it means abandoning our principles" strategy that we have been pursuing since Bush 1. We elect candidates that are farther and farther from our core principles, and then when they screw up we fail to defend them. Contrast this with the Democraps who are electing candidates farther and farther to the left, and won't admit they are wrong in ANY circumstance.

Bush is the ultimate example of this. His administration is a complete and utter failure with the exception that they have somehow prevented a follow-up attack since 9/11 (but look for that to end as soon as Obama is in office). And look where it has left us. Now we have an even bigger RINO running for President on a campaign of "I'm not a real Republican", and even many die-hard conservatives don't have it in them to stand up and defend Bush.

The sad thing is, this market collapse is going to be blamed on Bush. If it had happened 6 months from now, we could have ridden it to a complete route of Congressional Democrats. As it is, we are going to get more socialism.

Folks, we are in for at least 4 years (and probably more like 12) of really hard times. We'd best learn the lessons of this election well, and be ready to nominate a REAL conservative in 2012.

That’s all good, but the American know only to replace the “Ins” (White House party) with the “Outs”. They cannot figure out much else.

The media is the battle field. We have to go to their sites and carry the flag. I may have gone too far the other day when I told some liberal smuck to get his face out of Barney Franks crotch, ;) but we have to show we can beat them on every level. As they said in Team America ...

You do not have to go that far back in History. Please remember President Gore and President Kerry as the media polls and their exit polls told everyone.

Change British Empire to the United States of America and Churchill’s words still ring true to me.

what is our aim?

I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. Let that be realised; no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge and impulse of the ages, that mankind will move forward towards its goal. But I take up my task with buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. At this time I feel entitled to claim the aid of all, and I say, “come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.”

My McCanin/Palin keep the faith and not falter this fight is too important.

I do believe that if Obama loses - there will be terrible times ahead and the country will be divided like never before. If McCain/Palin does win - they will have a harder time than Bush/Cheney did & will be vilified constantly in the media. Tough times are ahead no matter who wins - we will have to gird ourselves and stay strong on the rough road that lies before us.

I’m with you. I’m almost to the point of completely logging off of FR until after the election.

I’m tired of the vanities from those who are angry and/or unhappy with McCain because he won’t run his campaign the way they personally believe he should run it.

I’m tired of poll results being posted every ten minutes as though they actually mean something.

I’m tired of having to sort through threads of gloom and doom based on the above two points.

Thank goodness for PJ’s DUmmie FUnnies and the Undead Thread; but for those, I’d log off for good.

Outstanding post! Count me in as one of those who will not surrender and who does not believe the media lies. This is the best vanity I have seen on here in a long time and reflects what we have been saying on the threads.

Some of this hand wringing and throwing in the towel has made me wonder if the posters are really who they claim because conservatives I know are fighters and not people to throw in the towel over what the media is saying. Throw in the fact a lot of us are broken glass Republicans that don't give in and you are left with 3rd Party types who would never support McCain or any Republican that love to get on threads to demoralize people, trolls, and a few of those from a couple of campaigns that don't want a McCain win.

Who is supporting Senator McCain? Those of us that put our differences aside and put America First and understand the ramifications of an Obama Presidency on our free speech and wallets.

Point well taken. The Obama crowd didn’t sit back as they were told that Hillary! was the inevitable candidate. They rolled up their sleeves and got to work.
