re: #183 Charles

All of these lies are piling up, and they’re going to backfire.

I’m reaching a level of cynicism where I’m not even sure that’s true anymore.

The Democratic party and its multibillion dollar political machine trounced the Republicans by ruthlessly and incessantly pushing a whole campaign of lies and smears. Bush is as bad as Hitler. The Patriot Act literally invalidates the entire Bill of Rights. McCain literally wants America to go to war for a hundred years.

Obama is a radical who spent decades advertising his membership in a racist hate group, who apologized for the murdering revolutionary terrorist who was his political mentor, who until this day still supports the involvement of genocidal terrorists in Middle East politics. He never had any business even being elected to congress, let alone the presidency, and yet the truth was never even enough to put a speed bump on his fast-track road to coronation. But what finally put a stop to his run of the table? A bunch of ugly lies about “death panels.”

I’m getting the impression that lies work. And therefore, from now on, the truth really will have no role in the American political scene.
