The goal being to silence the right?
To silence us and/or get us to cower. To take us off the message of the last two years, the message that's been working. Which is to say, to get us to stop calling the Obammunist and his lackeys what they are...Marxist tyrants...and pointing out that his goal is to destroy our nation as we know it.
Yes, that's the media are doing. Remember Rahm Emanuel's own words, "never let a good crisis go to waste."
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
