We need strong, informed Dem. strategists on tv to combat all the lies.
On Morning Joe, for example, Mika Brzezinski has been on a jihad to stress (falsely) that the WORST, most DANGEROUS "event" was the threat on Eric Cantor's life by someone "on the other side." She invariably trotted out that line after someone on OUR side said that the violence/incitement is really coming more from the "right." And after she would say her line about Cantor, our Dems. always "concede" that it DOES happen on both sides and that it's wrong when either side does it.

The best thing I can say about our side is they stick up for our Congressmen who were spat on and called names after Mika says there was "no tape" showing those things happened.

But not ONE on our side pointed out the fact that the guy who threatened Cantor also threatened Obama, Babe the Pig, and many others. He's just a nut-not a left-wing extremist. So I write to Mika and others about the facts, but that does nothing, since she still repeats the same thing to this day. Maybe I (and you guys) should write to the DEMS. to tell them to set the RWers straight instead of letting them get away with their lies.

2. Who was the fuckball Dem?
I have hunted them down and written them directly before. Got a very nice response from Mark Green, for instance, who said he just didn't have the information and was frustrated that he didn't. So you never know, give it a try.

3. Mankind can be divided into two groups: those who step on people and those who allow themselves to
be stepped on.

Too many of us have elected to be doormats.

If we don't start kicking ass and taking names soon, we'll find ourselves citizens of the Republic of Palinstan.
