>>So I take it that’s a vote that we should say any and all kinds of BS, just as long as it makes us look good and those we oppose look bad. We can tell any lie we want, right?
>>I think we have a job for you in the Propaganda Department.
First of all, this was a Washington Post “fact check” story. The WaPo Fact Check is leftist propaganda. There is more to the story. Perhaps the Sidwell guards do not carry guns now that the Secret Service is on the premises. Did they carry before the Obama girls arrived? Who knows.
Second, we don’t just “tell any lies we want”. But, if we get busted on some detail or technicality, as this was, we don’t start apologizing and promising to do better in the future, as the poster that I commented on did. But, you know what? The Left DOES tell any lies it wants. It shovels BS on our heads constantly and we smile and take it because some of us, like you, think that the moral victory gained by being passively lied to is better than beating these people. Your grandchildren will curse you for being weak and letting these Marxists roll over you so you could “be the better person”.
Third, I’d rather have a job in the Propaganda Dept of a right-wing regime that WON a freakin’ election than a bed in a re-education camp because the Left knows how to manage the flow of information and propaganda. The “high road” is the road to defeat in today’s America. At this point in time, we need to fight these rats in the trenches. In a media-driven society such as ours, controlling the information is more important than guns. If we man-up and learn to fight them on their turf in the media, we might not need those guns!
Look at all the people who are going on and on about the “coming CW2” and how they’re buying guns to “resist tyranny”. If we can’t even grow a pair big enough to tell the WaPo Fact Check that we don’t accept their version of the truth and then we fall to the ground wailing and begging for forgiveness from our enemies, then how in the hell are we going to actually FIGHT them if the time comes?
I'm all for fighting. And I'm all for winning. I just don't think we have to sell our conservative souls, or betray our conservative values, to do so.
