The head of the "fright-wingers" gets to serve the Kool Aid at CPAC. Seems someone might have spiked his.

2. Fox News is the heart of the Tea Partiers
I debate right-wingers all the time. Most simply parrot their opinion leaders: Rush, Levine, Beck, O'Reilly, Hannity, Ingraham, etc. It fascinates me that people follow these jokers like sheep.

The entire Tea Party Movement is nothing but a stirred up mob lip syncing the same stuff. Fox News and right-wing talk radio can turn their angst on and off like a light switch.

Bush ran the debt through the roof searching for WMD and nobody bitched. In fact, you were hugging terrorists if you even mentioned it. The wars continue under Obama (and the TARP started under Bush) but suddenly - on cue - the right-wingers rush to the streets screaming it's the end of the world because they see the sky falling.

Ditto Bush and the Patriot Acts. Right-wingers put bumper stickers on their cars declaring they have too many civil rights and are glad to give 'em up. Obama comes to Washingon and the Constitutuion is in danger and there's no freedom left in America.

Call me sick but I keep up with these clowns. Keeping up with their latest vomit allows me to rip into tiny shreds the arguments of the Fox News sheep.

6. Freedom Isn't Free is one that come to my mind.
You've seen that one, right?

5. Arguments?
You more than adequately describe what's wrong with the right wingers but then you indicate that you rip into shreds their arguments. Don't you think that the time for talking is over, that other measures should be taken. The other side seems to be ahead on this aspect and it's too bad the liberals can't get more worked up.

7. Countering propaganda
Talk's what stirred up the Tea Partiers. All those right-wing shills on Fox News and right-wing talk radio. I try to shine some light on their bull.

You want to really piss off a right-winger. Let them spew their memorized talking points. Let them look smug for a second or two then fill their minds with everything their puppet masters neglected to tell them. They're change the subject. They'll keep repeating the stuff verbatum. However, after some deprogramming they'll walk away dejected. Repeat a few times and they'll quit watching.

4. Lonesome Roads also blamed Wilson for prohibition
Wilson actually vetoed prohibition, but Beck isn't going to let the facts get in the way of a perfectly good rant.
