Beating Citizens United

We have seen that the only result of CU money has been to spread lies and distortions about everything with their media blitzkrieg. These lies are easily disproved if only we could educate our short attention span citizens who like the scary music and doom and gloom predictions.

Obama has one ad where this issue is addressed. Nice start but we need more.

I liked Ross Perot and his charts. Say what you will, statistics and picture graphs are remembered more than empty lies and rhetoric.

We need more truth, such as the Clint Eastwood's 'Detroit is Back' Super Bowl ad. Reputable people not politicians, even Romney types putting the light of truth on the crap like Death Panels, the economy, health care and immigration.

The ads don't need to even push a candidate, just show how we are being manipulated by the moneyed interests who play Americans for stupid, uneducated fools.

They can't prove lies but we can line up facts and truth all day long.

Attack the lies!

Are the five corrupt, partisan, republican Supreme court Justices and citizens United, for their acts they should be locked up in Alcatraz! Bush was not elected by the people, it was given to him by those five corrupt bastards, a mistake that has changed this whole world, all those votes in FL were not allowed to be counted, they stopped the vote, they violated those voters rights, those pompous bastards, they elected George W, not the people, I/m waiting for a devine intervention from God to separate two of those pricks from this earth and given a one way ticket to another planet
