The Devil's in the Details
Hello Papamoka Readers! I've been spending a lot of time lately pointing out Republican lies. I would love to drop this subject, but I can't. The Republicans keep saying things that get me angry, and their most recent talking point gets me angrier than all the rest put together.Their recent use of the expression "GENERATIONAL THEFT" related to the stimulus bill MAKES ME VERY ANGRY! That Republican right-wing TOOL and propaganda expert Michelle Malkin supposedly used it first. It was so loved by the Republican DECEIT MACHINE that it was later used by John McCain, John Boehner and Rush Limbaugh. More are using it every day.
It's now beginning to enter the Republican vernacular nationwide, as right-wing talk show hosts spew it out to their ignorant listeners who are unfortunately believing it. Yes, their lemmings believe their lies. They're very powerful that way. I don't care what our Democratic leaders say, this is VERY SERIOUS!
Democrats NEED TO REACT! We cannot allow the Republicans to permanently insert this phrase into their national portfolio. We need to CORRECT IT BEFORE IT GETS OUT OF HAND! Any publicity expert would say the same. This needs to be fixed before it becomes part of the national conversation, and considered rote.
We can tolerate some of their Rovian tactics, but this LIE is beyond the pale in my opinion. It TWISTS HISTORY so much it practically kills it. I thought they were good when they successfully labelled John Kerry a Vietnam War traitor, despite the fact that George Bush skipped the war and Kerry won medals. This is even worse! We need to stop them!
IT'S A LIE BEYOND ALL LIES! There's not even a word to describe the deceit and evil behind this LIE, except to maybe label them the "party of lies and deceit." That might come close. No matter what, Democrats need to grow a pair! They must stop underestimating the effect of the Republican Rovians.
Democratic leaders must act NOW! THEY MUST RESPOND WITH FACTS TO HURT THE GOP! CALL THEM LIARS! CALL THEM LIARS!
The Republicans ARE THE GREATEST GENERATIONAL THIEVES IN THE HISTORY OF THE US! They need to be BRANDED with it! They need to be SCALDED with it! They need to have it STITCHED INTO THEIR FOREHEADS if that's what it takes to make our point.
They have transferred more than $10 TRILLION in wealth from future generations. They are guilty as sin, and everybody needs to know it. If any Democratic leader is reading this, PLEASE make an effort to REVERSE this talking point. It's a CRIME! It's a LIE! It's REPUBLICAN, ROVIAN, SOVIET STYLE DECEIT beyond what we should tolerate as a nation!

I have to agree with ya bro!!! Don't have a heart attack over it though even as serious as it is. We need ya to hang around for another fifty or sixty years my friend!
Rove lead a college level class in deceit in politics 101 and that is why his boss had just over a twenty percent approval rating. I'm on board with ya on pointing out the liars though bro! Rock on and blog on!!!
I'm pretty sure most folks know that Republican Spin Masters throw as much mud up on the wall and hope that even just 1% of it sticks where it counts. Shameful in my honest opinion.
Thanks PapaM - You're right, I calmed down after that post. I'm still glad I wrote it. It's important to point out how they lie that way. Rove 101 will be with us a long time I hate to say. I'll stop writing about the liars when I see them retreat to less horrible lies - Calmed down thank God - MB
Move over, MB, I’ve been on this soapbox for years! Don’t call it spin, don’t call it “misinformation,” don’t call it “untruth,” call it a LIE, for that, simply, is what it is! So, you have my support to blow of steam when you need to!
If it’s a comfort, the people who believe the Rovian propaganda cannot absorb facts, and they are not going to change. The right-wing plants its seeds in a field of ignorance. I suspect those who believe these false talking points are the very people who show up in poll after poll (including Bush approval ratings) - the 25 or less percentage who oppose anything progressive.
No need to raise your voice. They aren’t listening.
