"We create our own reality."
After viewing the tea-bagger reality today, people who have pushed that political strategy should feel great shame.

But I bet they feel very proud of their accomplishment.

2. They were lies, and it was pointed out.

They had to go back to using real numbers.

3. Are they admitting it on Fox? On CNN today some twinkie reporter...
out on the Mall was all gaga about the huge crowd. It looked pretty thin to me but she was so excited at the whole thing.

4. There's the usual numbers game, but I was thinking more generally -
the republican strategy of filling gullible people's heads with a whole world of crazy beliefs designed to make them fear and despise democrats and all things liberal. Newt Gingrich, Karl Rove, Fox News, the Frank Luntz's of the world - they couldn't care less about what's real or true, they just want to build up their little monsters. The tea-baggers are their latest creature and it's an ugly one.
