3. Seriously?
You have never heard of Concerned Women for America?

US coalition of conservative women which promotes Biblical values and family traditions.


Feel free to browse their website and see if you can find ANY progressive values exposed, then listen to the video again.

6. Right WIng agit-prop for sure.
Notice the absence of Republican fault for the debt and deficit? It's intentional.

That's how the wingers spin the came.

7. I've seen this spoof elsewhere, and what ticks me off...
... is the repetition of the lie that the Stimulus was a failure. It's been repeated often enough that it's been accepted by the masses as "common knowledge." For the record: It prevented things from being worse than they've been. It would've done more if it were larger and if a large portion of the stimulus package that did pass wasn't TAX CUTS given to get the Republicans to vote for it.

8. How do they get away with the "Liberals are spenders" meme?
I wonder what would happen if you asked them to *name* some of those wasteful programs. They do give lip service to soc sec, medicare, and medicaid. So what are the useless, wasteful programs?

According to this http://www.warresisters.org/pages/piechart.htm, the military (including past wars) accounts for 54% of the fed budget. So who is it that's spending it ol?
