Just a reminder regarding GOP tactics
Edited on Fri Feb-13-04 10:47 AM by Homer12
It's not about if a certain allegation or story is true, It's about how the allegation can hurt the target in the short-term (sow doubt in people, ruin their reputation, etc...) or if their lucky the long-term.

This is HOW the GOP media whores work.

Remeber this, this is how they operate.

1. Is There Any Difference In The Way GOP and The Democrats ...
do it?

Just asking?

Given how badly the Democrats want to win in November.

Bush Lied, People Died.

4. Sure. The Shrub Is A Nice Guy. Just Ask Him. He'll Tell Ya.
Even Bob Boudelang tells me how great the Shrub is.

"Well, I'll bet all of those LIEberals and Saddam-appeasers and Democraps who were poo-pooing Our Great President's War in Iraq (which is not a quagmyer so stop saying that) are laughing out of the other sides of their neck now! George W. has discovered the evidence that the Iraqis were working on weapons of mass distraction and here it is!

Instead we should listen to decent saved people like Our Great President and his family, especially Neil who only has the one venereal disease despite the lies of his critics to make it seem like he has more than one. And then it is only herpes and not the clap. So stop saying Neil has the clap, or else!

And I am sure that all the other Hispanish Americans and other immigrants who are dragging America down are thrilled with Our Great President's plan to let them go on doing the disgusting low-paying jobs Americans do not want to do. And yes, the Republicans in Congress will not pass this plan in a million years, but those people are too ignorant to know that and will now probably be fooled into voting for it anyway. "

It is all DU's and Clinton's fault.

(Note to moderator: This is meant to be fun.)

3. Night and day, emanymton...night and day
There are sooooo many reasons why this is true to ennumerate half of them would make this post prohibitively long.

First read "Blinded by the Right" by David Brock, an insider's confession of the underbelly of the Vats Right-Wing Conspiracy.

And if you think I am saying that the Democrats are pure and innocent, you are mistaken. But the Busheviks ave taken things to a whole new level that the Democrats have been reluctant to match, and in many cases have refused to see.

5. I've no doubt that Dems would love to use the same tactics.
The problem is, they don't have a compliant corporate media that repeats anything they want them to. No FOX News, talk radio, or Weekly Standard to define the debate in their favor.
