Moreover, said Alinsky, whenever possible the organizer must deride his enemy and dismiss him as someone unworthy of being taken seriously because he is either intellectually deficient or morally bankrupt. “The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength,” said Alinsky.[79] He advised organizers to “laugh at the enemy” in an effort to provoke “an irrational anger.”[80] “Ridicule,” said Alinsky, “is man’s most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage.”[81]
Another “can-do-easy” piece of advice for handling Obama from his mentor. This stuff’s easy!

So! The MSM followed Alinsky’s advice and used this tactic against President Bush for EIGHT YEARS...even while we were at war!
Nice touch!
