They do this because it's worked in the past because there was one unified media that dutifully sold their lies to the American public and told anyone who disagrees that they are crazy.<br /><br />But in the modern world, with a wide open media, that won't work anymore because the public now knows that they are not alone in their doubts and in seeing the Democrats' words as lies and false promises.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-25692444585156269182010-05-07T00:05:49.868-04:002010-05-07T00:05:49.868-04:00Andrew

From 1940 with the advent of the Fairness Doctrine by FDR to the takeover of the Media in the 60's they have controlled the narrative. What you knew is what they would let you know.<br /><br />The problem they have is that in the era of new media they are much more easily debunked. They have responded to this with snobbery. Limbaugh is a bombast, wingnuts on the internet, the Drudge report is for kooks, etc. This worked as well but now the new media has expanded and conservatives are fighting back.<br /><br />They are not used to being questioned and having their accusations answered and the new media and the Tea Party are not the country club RINO's that would suck it up for a few hidden tax shelters. It is outside their worldview which has become a fantasy of their own making.<br /><br />So when they are in power they ignore us and out of power they are nothing but shrill voices and decietful lies. No substance is there. Their party is air.......Individualisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005025873042230314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-73342797621123409142010-05-05T20:18:13.389-04:002010-05-05T20:18:13.389-04:00Writer X, I hadn't thought about that!

Just fall back into the arms of your Congressman and expect him to catch you. They just don't get that actions always speak louder than words. But, given enough taxpayer money, they'll try anything.

They are truly blind to the world around them. Whatever he does is exactly what they wanted, and when it isn't, it's somebody's fault besides Obama. It's truly cult-like.<br /><br />The problem for Obama is that most of the public doesn't fall into that category and that the public is now looking at his actions, not his words or intentions. So any plan that involves trying to re-label what they did as something else simply won't work. In fact, it will probably make it worse because people will feel that they are being played.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-74097051022325045172010-05-05T15:36:03.199-04:002010-05-05T15:36:03.199-04:00Another zinger Andrew!

It's like Obambi's response to all the opposition to Obamacare - he didn't explain it enough, so he thought by talking about it ad nauseam, the dummies (us) would finally like it. <br /><br />Robin of Berkeley on American Thinker had a good post today about liberals being from Mars. It's so true, it's like they are from another planet.<br /><br />I came across this "wonderful" group on Facebook: How about we stop blaming Obama for what Bush did. It's unreal how blindly these people follow him. That's why I like this blog so much - it's my daily dose of sanity in an insane world.<br /><br />Keep up the good work guys!

To them, speeches create reality; actions do not. Results are unimportant; only feelings matter. And of course, since they've defined progressivism as "caring for fellow humans", they claim that their words don't matter, either, except to convince the stupid masses to accept whatever the progressives decide. And since progressives always care, by definition, whatever they decide is right.<br /><br />This is why progressive Democrats can historically be the party of slavery, eugenics, racism, and fascism while claiming to uphold human welfare. This is why progressive Democrats can accept far more in donations from Wall Street while claiming to be the party of the "little guy". This is why progressive Democrats feel secure in costing thousands of lives in Africa to the banning of inexpensive, effective (and NOT environmentally harmful) pesticides against mosquitoes while claiming to make the world a better place "for the children".<br /><br />It's time for Democrat voters to understand that intentions don't matter anymore, because the progressive Democrats in this administration have done everything possible to disguise their intent and call upon you to ignore their results. Their words have become so divorced from their actions that they are all but meaningless, except as indicators of their cynicism and hypocrisy.<br /><br />And as a wake up call to the progressive voter: if you don't have a Congressman in your pocket, you are not among the privileged elite. If you do have one in your pocket, remember that no Congressman has the ethics to stay bought forever.wahsatchmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15990668466361072408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-85535109295724123722010-05-04T18:37:59.877-04:002010-05-04T18:37:59.877-04:00Lawhawk, I expect that will be the case.
