Fighting the GOP's lies

When are we, the Democrats, going to fight back all this right wing garbage and out and out lies?  I am sick to death of having to listen to some of the filth that comes out of their mouths, especially the current ad that says Obama wants to teach sex ed to 4 and 5 year olds.  Please.  The sad thing is many uninformed people will see this and believe it.  That's how Bush "won" in 2000 and 2004, in addition to some really "interesting" vote counting.

I watched Bill Maher last night and after listening to possibly the most hypocritical pundit in awhile, John Fund,  I think I've figured out our plan to win.  Just do everything he says not to do.  He pompously spoke about how WE lost the last 2 elections because we were so negative.  Keep it up, he said, and we'll lose again.  Well, he has this ass backwards.  The GOP was so negative in those elections it was appalling.  We just sat there thinking the American public will see through all the lies.  Not without a roadmap, they won't!!!  I still have a friend that believes every word the Swiftboaters said about John Kerry.

So I think it's time we gave the citizen's a real good road map.  I know Democrats don't like to get down in the mud with the GOP, but if we want to win, we're going to have to find a way to do this, and not look like the Republicans in the process.  I know Barack wants to keep families out of the equation, but how about going after John McCain's service record, but leaving out the POW bit.  Talk about how he finished at the bottom of his class in Annapolis and that how he crashed 4 jets long before his POW status, and how he's never had a real job at all -- pointing out that he's just as big of a dummy as our current president.  Tie him to Bush's personality and make him seem that he's just Bush in a different body -- a much OLDER one.  And also point out that in the Senate he's called McNasty for his abrasive personality and that know one is spared his insults.  Just the perfect fellow we want talking to heads of state.  John Kerry gave a great speech at the convention talking about how candidate McCain would be against Sen. Mc Cain.  I see this as a great campaign ad.  I want the American population to go to the polls thinking that we can't vote for someone who's even LESS qualified and dumber than are current president.   The fact that he's been in the Senate for 26 years can be made to look like he was Senator Do-Nothing who just occupied a chair, because  after all , many of the bills he sponsored he didn't even vote for.

I'd like to hear what others think about these ideas and how we can get the Obama/Biden ticket to adopt the best ones.  We can't afford 4 more years of this.  Maybe we don't have to get down in the mud with them, we just need to deliver some knock-out punches to keep them in the mud where they belong.

We need to make a list

If we would just publish all the coruption that has taken place since George W. Bush has

been in the White House.  How could you deny we don't need change.  In Politics 101, it states

Politicans will vote with their party more than 90% of the time.  And McCain say's that he is the change we need.

There has been a lot of poor people send their money to this campain and we owe them a fight to the end.  And the republicans pull out Sarah at the last

minute....Why? so we won't have the time to know who she is!  This election is by far the most important event that will happen in my lifetime.

We had better pull off the gloves!!!!

As long as the News Media is under the control of Corporate America, the real facts and the real truths will not be reported to the American people.
I am somewhat taken back at the fact that John McCain has sold out his honor and truthfulness to them also. His reputation will surely suffer by his repeated non truths, and his repeating the lies that his running mate has brought to the Republican Party.

The best line I've heard so

The best line I've heard so far in this campaign, describing the McCain/Palin ticket:

"Unstable & Unable, Incompetent & Incontinent"
