Notice how none of the Politicos on our side ever dispute the Bush's fault meme coming from the Press?

At the Republican Debate, Brian Williams started asking a question about the Economy, blaming the current Economic problems on the eight years of Bush, just like Obama always does. Nobody on the panel jumped in and said, let's clarify that premise before answering the follow up question about what should be done to fix the Economy going forward.

Let's see, under President Bush we had 5% Unemployment, record increases in Tax Revenue to the Federal Government (35% plus) BECAUSE of the Bush Tax RATE Cuts, record Employment and consistent 4% plus GDP Growth. All that after the Economic hit of 9/11 and our followup Military response.

In unison they should use the line, yes we all agree that things went South after Pelosi and Reid took over Congress in 2007 and the Democrats fought reining in Fannie and Freddie which we now know caused the Housing collapse and the Economic disaster that followed.

If you let your enemies, in this case the Liberal Press, set the rules of the game, you lose. Half of the American people still blame the Bush era policies of causing not only the original Economic downturn, but the continued bad news three years into the Obama regime.

It is clear the Democrats own the propaganda machine, so I certainly hope that all my Conservative FRiends don't think that 2012 will be a cake walk. It won't...

Excellent post, KC.

It drives me nuts when I see how slow on the uptake many GOP and/or conservative politicos and pundits are when liberal lies and spin are swirling all around them.

They're like dead men talking....no mental agility to seize the moments available to them for quick factual rebuttal....just the ability to woodenly plough ahead with their trite, memorized talking points.....completely ignoring the calumnies thrown their way.
