They Have No Shame. They Know That We Know They Are Lying

And they don't care that we know.

They know that we know they are cheating. They keep a straight face and do it anyway.

They know that we know that they are making false accusations, and they do it anyway.

The media, the media knows that they are lying, the media knows that they are making false accusations. And even worse, the media knows that we know that the media knows, but the media is dumping shit on us anyway.

Everybody is looking and seeing in full view.

What have we done to deserve this?

1. Remember who owns the media. Remember what the media are.

The media are corporations. Which is the party that supports rich mega-business? GOP. Which is the party that supports Americans? Dems.

2. I wish at one of these debates or at a town hall meeting

that there would be a question from the audience asking Mccain "have you know decency"

4. I mean really. I think Obama hit the nail on the head when

he started to use the word dishonorable.

And what's so weird about it is when a McCain supporter is asked about it, they scoff at the idea that anyone could possibly impune McCain's "honor".

They are looking at "honor" in military terms, no way you can impune his "honor." And yet, as a character issue, McCain is clearly showing that he is entirely without honor. He is definitely dishonorable and I guess since he is so old, he's willing to sell that, do anything, to be president. There are no more chances.

3. Back to the issues

All this side show noise is exactly what turd blossom (Rove) wants. Its worked so far. I even enjoy slamming them. Its really truly time to get back to the issues that affect every day citizens. Less than 2 months left. Distractions to the Message is the game Rove is playing. This election is becoming about little things.

Need to convince people to get back on track.

5. Of course they do. It's either lies or stupidity. On the part of some

voters, it's probably stupidity (or, to be charitable, ignorance, apathy, or gullibility)
But on the part of the candidates? The campaign staff? The surrogates?
LIARS. THIEVES. WHORES.
ASSHOLES.

And yes, we know, and they MUST know we know...

SO WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO ABOUT IT?

6. We didn't fight back in 2000 when they hijacked our election. And

we haven't fought back ever since.

Why the hell should they respect us?

7. It's what happens when you have a mean, bigoted, and stupid electorate....

They're the fundamental reason why all that you see in this country is possible.

8. Yeah but there's a feeling gets in your gut about it and then

you start to understand how revolutions happen. A little tiny something there in your gut that must have been the same feeling the people had who dumped the tea in the Boston harbor, and the people in France during the French Revolution. "Let them eat cake."

Makes me want to make a list of the "Enemies of the People". LOL Top of that list would be Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. Enemies of the people for the vicious propaganda they spew.
