Howard Fineman: Obama campaign must call Ryan a liar ASAP

[grasswire]

Fineman and O'Donnell warned repeatedly Weds. night that Dems must immediately frame Ryan as a liar, because he's exceptionally dangerous to swing voters.

They praised his rhetorical skill and said that low-information voters may be captured by his style and appeal.

If his lies aren't refudiated ASAP they will become accepted.

We can all help in this effort by using social media and message boards everywhere.

We can make *Ryan LIAR* trending.

We can affect google.

1. For fuck's sake. Why would these people need to be reminded of this? That welfare

giveaway bullshit has caught on big time. So has the medicare "stealing" bit (which is also an insult I've never heard in a presidential campaign). Al Gore was called a serial liar, so was kerry. This isn't goddamn rocket science.

5. "low information" voters

is this the new meme for stupid? lol

[OneGrassRoot]

6. Yes, and the word 'LIAR' must be used

Not "misleading," "untruth," or "misinformation."

CALL A LIE A LIE AND A LIAR A LIAR, for cryin' out loud.

10. Yes, yes and yes. These fucking pigs called the President a thief. I say kick them in

the balls. Call them liars in every appearance, photo op, etc, etc.

8. "Repudiated" OR "Refuted".

Either one, but "refudiated", no matter how cute, is not actually a word.

13. yes, we know that

neither is *moran*

it's part of the Internet vocabulary.

14. it might have become a "real" word, unfortunately:

The made-up word tweeted and deleted in minutes on Palin’s Twitter feed was announced Monday as the year’s best new word by the New Oxford American Dictionary.
<...>
The final definition reads:

refudiate verb used loosely to mean “reject”: she called on them to refudiate the proposal to build a mosque. [origin — blend of refute and repudiate]

I doubt it'll ever make the OED or Merriam-Webster, but NOAD thinks the term is perfectly cromulent.

11. Ryan Liar in Google brings up..........

12. #LyinRyan is already trending on Twitter, it helps to use it.

Pretty sure Keith Olbermann started that one yesterday. The many articles about the lies are being retweeted and commented on a lot.
