Must we always repeat the BS

[October]

I hardly ever post - much less, start a thread.

But I find myself frustrated this morning. Every pro-Dem site is posting and re-posting Ted Cruz's lies about the most recent Planned Parenthood shooting in our country.

And I realized that I read more about the right-wingers than anything. Every progressive site is more right-wing-speak. We are always reacting to their nonsense and lies. Always. And we do so by reprinting and rehashing and well, basically spreading their bullshit around even further.

I guess I'm just old enough to remember when these clown types were marginalized.

I'm so tired of seeing THEM, and their lies and hatred 24/7 on every site.

Ok. End of rant.

1. Ted Cruz's comments are so flipping crazy...

...that they need to be reposted to expose his insanity.

Seriously. By suggesting that the PP shooter was a "transgendered leftist", he reveals what a nut job he is.

It's important that Independents and sane Republicans see this bullshit. You'll never convince the looney right of anything. However, if you can marginalize and destroy those teanuts with their own words--those words should be posted.

Same thing with Donald Trump. The more people who see how crazy they are--the better.

2. I can see where you are coming from.

It is a bit hard when they promote such ludicrous views that are sensationalistic.

They do not care if it is true or not, they are designed to trigger a response, just like how little brats would do it to bully, cajole or just to bring attention to themselves.

Not quite sure how to combat it however.

3. play defense we carry water for republicans, attack our own party candidates carries more RW water

Meanwhile our President works his ass off and makes America Proud

6. It's unreal.

All we do is react to the crazy. Anything good or decent done by a Dem is ignored, or mocked for not being enough - or lied about by the right - or just lost amidst the circus atmosphere we're living in.
