"Educate the idiots"

[FVZA_Colonel]

Well, I suppose the Republicans needed something to try and derail Obama, because here it is: http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/1008/Colorado_Democrats_Educate_the_Idiots.html?showall

Yeah, this is really the sort of language that appears in Democratic documents...


On Edit: Well, it appears Smith updated info to include that this dates back to the 2006 campaign, and "Its authenticity hasn't been confirmed."

It'll stay with us past election day.

1. What font is it in? (n/t)

2. A forgery wouldn't surprise me either.

3. This "appears to be" bullshit.

[FVZA_Colonel]

4. It certainly is.

But no matter how fucking transparent it is, the media will still report on it.

5. Ben updated to add

that the memo is dated to 2006, and that its authenticity "hasn't been confirmed". GREAT reporting, Ben.

6. Apparently Drudge had it on at the same time.

Now that's an amazing coincidence...

7. Looking at the PDF of the "memo"

that part seems to be the only thing completely out of place. No where else in that list of people and the positions they hold, do they make any description about that person's role/duty/responsibility. The same thing is also repeated next to all of the listings for the AFL-CIO rep's name. I think there is something not right about this. I just can't imagine the AFL-CIO or Democrats calling voters and constituents "The Idiots".

8. I'd say that's only the beginning of the problems.

Like I said, it reads like a conservative fantasy of how "elitist liberals and Democrats" really feel about their supporters.

9. How can you speak of this as though it has been confirmed or

made authentic, if it hasn't?

Why would you even want to? :wtf:

10. I don't believe it's real, and I didn't mean to sound like it is. If I did then I made a mistake.

I only meant to say it's problems are so many that there is no way it could be real. The "writing too terrible for a right-wing military thriller" only seals the deal.


It just strikes me as amusing that Ben Smith would plaster this up on the web without even bothering to note that it "supposedly" dates from 2006.

11. Ok....

Because you know that the RW is desperate at this point, and will do and try anything.

This is too aligned to the "Elitist" theme to be real......or for them, "too good to be true".
It's a set up.
