A couple of things we all must keep in mind is this:

1) the Dems are going to start vicious rumors and cast doubt on the integrity of the Bush administration. They only have approx. 1 year to discredit any good this administration has accomplished...if they hope to win big next election. They are like defense lawyers.... cast enought doubt (e.g., if the glove don't fit.... you must acquit) on what is going on and you can sway many independents....or newly arrived citizens....

2) I think it was in Hannity's book, "Let Freedom Ring," that mentions that most of the media are democrat and/or liberal. Most have come from the democrat party. You know...when their boss losses the election and they must go out and find another job, they wind up on many of the news channels and newspapers.

SO, logic says that since the media is working for the DemoRats, then of course they are going to print/repeat what the Dems want them to say.

So we must take everything reported with a grain of salt and hope that the conservative stations/papers (few that they be) issue a challenge to "show me the facts!"

We must also spread the word thru a grassroots effort so that the "new" citizens and the "younger generation" don't get mislead by the lies or misdirection.

I keep hearing the same old song... just with a different tune!

I personally do NOT respond to any so called news from the leftie media. Lately, I have added FNC to that list of media outlets not to be trusted.

Ohhhh, this is the DemoncRATic Party using Saul Alinsky's Rules For Radicals. Here's a few examples w/commentary.
RULE 5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon." There is no defense. It's irrational. It's infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)
RULE 8: "Keep the pressure on. Never let up." Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)
RULE 10: "If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive." Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog. (Unions used this tactic. Peaceful [albeit loud] demonstrations during the heyday of unions in the early to mid-20th Century incurred management's wrath, often in the form of violence that eventually brought public sympathy to their side.)
RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

Ahhhh, You're thinking--this sounds familiar! That's because these are the tactics Hillary used to smear Starr,Gingrich and everyone else for 8 years,NOW Mr. McAwfuliffe is using them.I just thought you all should know.
