You know why there are so many RW shills?
There is simply more money in being a RW shill.The demand for putting a spin on mindless drivel flowing from the mouth of Bush is so great that RW foundations throw money at this.We have no comparable money faucet on our side.

I do not think that any of the RW shills believes in anything he writes.Michelle Malkin or Kitty Parker's allegiance is to their own pocket books not to any deeply held beliefs.If Genghis Khan came along tomorrow, with a ton of money,both Kitty and Michelle will be cooing the equivalent of My Sweet Genghis in his ears.And so on with the others.At this time, the survival of these shills in the RW jungle is based on how outrageous they can be from week to week.They can be persuaded to part with their RW "beliefs" if enough bills from Mongolia came floating around.

Even the ultimate RW shill, George Will,can be turned.His entire reputation rests on his polysyllabic vocabulary earned in the nether reaches of Georgetown and polished to a fine art at the feet of Kay Graham.

You can never underestimate the hold of money on the American psyche,which can steamroller any belief system.That is the truth that animates the entire Press.

1. There's lots of money to be made by RW shills if you
don't mind selling your country out for a few pieces of silver. Hmm, that sort of reminds me of another story.

4. Exactly! And that's a serious crime.
If it could ever happen that hundreds of the shills as well as the leaders got prosecuted and jailed, a mass emotional recovery would take place in the U.S. and most of the rest of the world. I don't predict that such a deserved thing will ever happen.

2. Thank you
For the first time in months I have been so moved to reply. I understand the reason, so i just refuse to listen to the shills. To bad so many do and swallow hard in the end. Nicely done!!

8. Yep
I agree. It's very popular now to be a rightwinger and all that. If you are a democrat you get poo-poo'd on like nothing else and called awful things etc. Plus the republicans can use them to shrill for them and keep the truth away. They know if it wasn't for the shrills they wouldn't have the support they do.

5. It doesn't pay to tell the truth.
Why is Rush making $20MM+ promoting the RNC agenda? It certainly has nothing to do with truth.

7. Doesn't Michelle Malkin descend from Genges Kahn?

I'm a genaeology fan...and I think if you trace her back you will find her illustrious ancestor in there.
