...making sh*t up about people is a good, honest political strategy....
KJ, she wasn't MAKING UP stuff. She was using HYPERBOLE. Remember when your mother said, "If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times...." (if your mother never said it to you, believe me!! MY mother said it a thousand times to me!!!!!) Anyway, that is an example of hyperbole. "making sh*t up about people" is things like "Bush lied/People died"; "DeLay is satan" (whatever crap they say...)
What Ann said is SO OUTSIDE THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY that a reader (who understands hyperbole) will laugh at the statement and know that the TRUTH is on the same LINE just not as far out as STATED.

It took you numerous hours and 500 posts to come up with that! OK, it's all good now. Not. Ann screwed up.
