1. It doesn't.
The right wing thinks they can just make shit up. Unfortunately for them, much of the world subscribes to that thing called, 'reality'.

2. Make sense? Why does it have to make sense?
This is going to be four years of insidious smear and attack on all things Obama. Did anyone actually think that the RW was going to shrug and sing "Kumbaya"(sp) with their Democratic brothers and sisters because Obama is so great? The RW is going into long-term smear mode; the question is, what is the solution to it?

5. There lays the problem, how does a sane person that see's life in reality
convince the insane that they are dumb nit wits that should be locked away in a mental hospital. Remember these are the nit wits who worry about the rich paying to much in taxes even though it means their taxes will go up when the rich gets tax cuts. These are the nit wits that worry more about life after death then they worry about how to survive life while alive.

These are the nit wits that are still waiting for Reagans trickle down economics to lift them into the world of the rich and famous. These are the nit wits who see massive lay offs, factories off shoring and think its only a local problem, all one has to do is move to another area, work hard and they will get rich.

These are the nit wits that think that because PE Obama was elected it means the end of racism and 400 years of oppression and the slate is clean. These are the nit wits that think racism is on both sides in equal numbers, that blacks choose to segregate themselves and PE Obama choose his black heritage over his white heritage.

How the hell can you find a solution if the insane are to dumb to address the problem? Which is themselves.

6. You have put it into perspective.
That is it in a nutshell (literally). I wish I had the answer, I am afraid that no one does...

3. All of a sudden the corporate whores - the same
Edited on Wed Nov-19-08 09:48 AM by LibDemAlways
asses who never so much as hinted at the current recession the US has been experiencing for years - have decided we're in or shortly headed for the second great depression under Obama. They want him to fail and are irresponsibly helping to create a feeling of doom. They have really stepped this up since the election and it's insidious.

7. We all knew this was coming.
There are people who never let reality intrude on their propaganda.

8. The Big Lie has become an integral part of conservative politics
It was already there to some degree, but McCain and Saracuda made it publicly acceptable to them.
