If the libs are enraged, you must be doing something right.

There also appears to be some gamesmanship going on. How big of a whopper can I tell the media and keep a straight face? My electors voted to send the proverbial bull to the China shop, and that's what we're going to give them by God.

Flood the zone with bullshit! Bad is the new Good.
