The problem for liberalism is two-fold.

As the author points out, one of the problems is that the lies that were told, from “shovel-ready” stimulus, to Obamacare, to racial fear-mongering, to foreign policy, etc., have indeed been exposed as lies. The other problem for the left is that the policies themselves have failed, something which the people feel and see in their everyday lives, no reporting necessary.

Liberal lies have been exposed, but this only exposes the purveyors of liberalism. More importantly liberalism itself has been proven to be a disaster, in every way, for the people.

Barack Obama and liberal policies have literally killed the Democratic Party, and for the reason the author states above, I don’t believe the suck-up media can save it.

> Thankfully folks are starting to wake up despite what you have posted.

Thanks to Obama forcing people to buy into the Obamacare pyramid scheme, killing the economy with it and bringing over all his leetle friends from Mehico to take away their jobs among all the other BS they are starting to wakeup. Even those most ditzy blonde gets it after she’s been dumped on a few times. The former 0 supporters were extremely naieve and inexperienced in dealing with a professional conman of the highest order who had the deepest pockets and guidance to draw from to create the illusions he needed to dupe them (i.e. being straight, Christian, and married of which only one is true). I believe Satan guides his footsteps through Soros...

Peaple at large are not buying the racial lies either. Only blacks and libs believe America’s police are gunning for unarmed black youths.

I checked out the delusional website over at revcom.com. Here’s the problem that I see...
My 25 yo son is not politically active but he frequently says that he wants revolution. Why? Because he is at the bottom of the pool while he sees those at the top taking more and more from those below them. In a way I don’t blame him. We are ruled by thieves.
My worry is that he would be attracted by a sham group like this because of their rhetoric instead of realizing that saving America is the key to a free future.
And if he would be attracted, more would be attracted. That puts the onus on us to talk with our youth.

Theodore Roosevelt famously said, “It is not the critic who counts . . . the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena . . .” But Grubercrats (journalists, and politicians who go along and get along with journalists) are critics, not doers, and they are determined that critics rather than doers shall have the credit.

The opposite of “the credit belongs to the man . . . in the arena” is, “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that.” But the reality is that the owner of a business continually works to build it - or else sees the business decline and, sooner rather than later, fail.

“The critic” readily faults the failures of the businessman’s foresight, but the critic operates on hindsight and thus his analysis is of less value than even the imperfect vision of the entrepreneur. The cynicism of the critic only irritates the strong, but it incapacitates the weak. The child who is told he doesn’t have a chance because of racism is being weakened and marginalized by ”the soft bigotry of low expectations."

Without the citizen journalists working in conservative new media, would we have ever seen Obamacare’s architect on video laughing at the giant scam he and the Democrats pulled on the American people?

That's true, but the real story (not yet covered by the citizen journalists) is just how many Grubers there are in the Federal government, and just how much their "research" limits, constrains, and even govern what Congress may and may not do.

I have had many liberals finally admit to me that they voted for Obama and wish they hadn’t this year. Some very stout former supporters. They really believed him in 2008. I just tell them I could tell he was a conman back then and still is and it its only going to get worse because of him (yeah I want it to sting a little). I also tell them that the Tea Party is just made up of patriots who understand why the Constitution was written the way it was after 600 plus years of suffering by the people who migrated here. They now know we we’re right all along.

Excellent statement.

“Every single thing liberals say is a lie. No exceptions.

We conservatives always knew it, but 2014 was the year when the rest of America began to understand.”

“The problem isn’t a failure of fact checking. The problem is these hacks don’t care about the facts. Facts are only useful if they support the narrative.”

Great article!

The mainstream media used to get to decide what was and was not the truth. But the truth has been set free, and the mainstream media has been revealed as the guardian of the lies that the liberal establishment needs to fool normal Americans just enough to secure their votes. That’s why we should laugh and cheer at the mainstream media’s agonized death throes.

Liberal liars will always be with us but their numbers make them insignificant... The New York Times has lost the keys - lost the gate - and lost their way. We won.

The mainstream media didn’t tell you the truth about these cop-hating marches; it was the new media and citizen journalists. Those of us who have been around these peace/social justice/anti-police/whatever rallies over the years know that they are full of scumbags and losers, with commies of every stripe calling for the destruction of America and death to Israel. You never – ever – see that in the mainstream media; all you hear is talk of generic “activists” and carefully selected photos that never include the creeps with signs calling for “Socialist Revolution Now” or “Kill the Pigs.” It’s lying by omission, and it’s a conscious choice.

Kurt Schlichter's one to watch... he's totally getting it...

What you said, AND they feel lying is no problem, because they (think they) are so much smarter than everyone else that it is justifiable to lie to get people to follow their agenda.
