Specifically, this hoax. I’d love to throw stones at them and TNR, but people on our own side were taken in too.

Guys? The post at Shakespeare’s Sister revealing the hoax is linked on the first page of the Google results for “Martin Eisenstadt.” Remember these goofball viral “ads” for Giuliani? Anything look familiar?

The “Harding Institute for Freedom and Democracy”? Named after one of America’s worst presidents, whose term in office lasted two years with zero foreign policy accomplishments? Dude? Click the image to watch.

Folks, this one weapon we have against the msm....they are in such a blood lust state to get republicans that they report anything and ask questions later which creates this mud in face scenario. In football, when a defense is so aggressive and fast, they opponent is likely to run plays that make the supposed strength against them.

The msm can be had because they do not fact check or vett....shoot first, ask later, go to next news cycle, rinse-repeat.

I liked to see David Shuster read this. He was the one suspended at MSNBC for the “Pimping out” comment about Chelsea Clinton and is a real smarmy jerk!

Could this Eisenstadt’s alleged hoax be a cover for other unscrupulous/embittered aides? How do we know we can believe this liar or whoever is hiding behind him who evidently doesn’t exist?

Palin Fights Back! (They even twist this one!)

Posted by ExtraTV Staff on November 8, 2008 8:46 AM

Gov. Sarah Palin wants to clear up her recent geography mishap. The VP wannabe told CNN the McCain aides bashing her to the media are “jerks.”

McCain camp sources leaked the news that Palin didn’t know Africa was a continent. Palin informed the CNN reporter, “I consider [anonymous sources] cowardly.” Palin also clarified “it’s not true” she didn’t know the countries in the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Ernest, CBS has been relentless over these Palin rumors.
First it’s a half hour of Katie Couric’s nasty innuendo, then half hour of ‘Inside Edition’, where they add some more, and then that Mario kid laughing it up for another half hour on Exta. All anti Palin. When they present her rebuttal, it’s done as joke.

I get one channel....and I can’t make myself turn it off!
Every day I’m more stunned than the day before at their propaganda.

Meanwhile half the population will believe the lies about Palin.
