These TV talking heads are evil, and they think the American people are stupid.
50% of the American people are stupid. They're called "democrats." If the drive-by media didn't fill their mushy little brains with lies, half-truths and irrelevancies, we'd have a huge majority in Congress and the President would have support in the War on Terror.
As much as I despise the left, their tactics are extremely successful. Look how they have turned the sexual foibles of one minor congressman (who resigned immediately) into a major battle plan to win back congress. Look how they've taken the recent use of a word ("macaca") and a possible 30-year old use of the "n-word" and managed to turn an easy George Allen victory into a potential nightmare.
As Rush and Sean and others have often said, if the dems had to run on what they really believe, and who they really are, no one (except the hard-core socialists) would vote for them. Their program of attack and inuendo, of lies and distortions have made them eerily competitive with a party that pretty much tells the truth and has the best interests of the populace in mind.
Unfortunately a lot of the American public is stupid and/or believes what the MSM tells them.
They are turning history on its head... lying in the face of known facts. The NewMedia has b*tch-slapped them countless times for it already... but like a doped-up psychotic... they keep doing the same, failed strategy over and over and over...
