In this campaign, I have never seen such mean-spirited political messages, never seen such blatant lies spun as truth, as those that the republicans have paid for and put on the airwaves. Of course, one can expect no less from puppet masters like Karl Rove, the Koch brotherhood, Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce and none other than the local Chamber of Commerce. We know what their agenda is, and they're determined to get Americans to buy into it, truth be damned.
If this isn't reason enough not to ever vote republican, I don't know what is.
Just as an example; a current message attacking Obama claims that he has done nothing to fix the economy. Excuse me? Obama inherited a financial disaster created by four republican presidential terms and two unfunded wars. Taking our country down a few more notches, let's talk about the ridiculous tax cuts given to the wealthy under these clearly addled thinkers (otherwise known as the Bushes) and the massive deregulation of the banking industry, brought to you by Reagan and the Addled Bushes, which caused the big Wall Street collapse that brought us to the brink.
At any rate, I'm kind of enjoying the desperation that stinks out of these television ads (hmmmm, must be Odorama). The more blatant the lies, the better Obama seems to do at the polls. Proof positive that you don't have to be a genius to spot a lying son-of-a-bitch.
