To our "friends", it is NOT about the content of the message, but it's all about the messenger
Edited on Wed May-25-11 12:59 AM by MrScorpio
The mere fact that the Right can spout just about any kind of utter bullshit about people that they hate (Dems, the Poor, the Undocumented, Non-Heteros, Union Members, Non-Xtians) and to an all too willing audience, who'll gladly scarf up that fecal smorgasbord like a starving castaway should tell ANY thinking person that it's never been about the QUALITY of the message… It's about the CREDIBILITY of the messenger in those slimy circles.

There's a technical term for this phenomenon, but I forgot what that is a while back… I'm sure that you smart folks know what I'm talking about.

So you can't talk sense into these hateful, GOP humming folks with facts and figures, while they're expecting a big payoff all over their already pasty white faces from the turgidity of their corporate prostituting idols… You're better off finding the nearest wall and whisper sweet-sweet nothings into an electrical socket.

No, what has to be done is that we have to go after the CREDIBILITY of the Right Wing message machine. And for this, you have to play dirty; you get the messengers to admit ON CAMERA just how fucked up they are and you blast that shit all over the place.

The reason that the MSM WON'T do this is because their paychecks DEPEND on a constant flow of bullshit… If things go too well for the Democrats, you can bet, dollars to donuts, that they'll bring in and certify the ramblings of ANY whacked out Right Wing Lie Jockey, just to "create" the illusion of a debate.

They'll sit there nodding their carefully coiffed, pointy little noggins in a state of blissful abeyance, as a vomitinous spew of inanities launch out of the mouths of the Winger media whores like an errant MX missile on a mission from Gawd. Stop being angry at the media, they gave up any kind of honorable stake in a fair contract with the body politic a long-long time ago.

The job of spreading what the Teabaggerati infected Right Wing running dogs in elected office are openly saying has be done by ordinary people…. VIRALLY!

Newt the Snoot indicated, after his Ryan budget faux pas last week, that if your quote him in context and verbatim with uncut video tape as he assailed the Ryan plan, that it would be very problematic for him. The fucker just went and spil't the durn beans. THAT'S how you go after him and all the other repugnant GOP fucks out there… Use their own words.

It's nice for us the use viral media to demonstrate of callous, ignorant and rapacious nature of the elected slime devils in tailored suits, but it's another thing to move out of our comfort zone and demonstrate to the Rank and File that their leaders don't give a royal fuck up the ass about them either. You gotta spread the word. You have to be nice when you do it. You have to treat the Rank and FIle as if you're looking out for THEM against a class of assholes who wouldn't piss on them even if they were on fire.

These people are already apoplectic, what needs to be done is to SHIFT their apoplexy onto a proper target… Bring them motherfucking chickens home to roost.

Trust me, the results will be amazing…

And a whole lot of fun too.

2. One of my first posts was that the credibility must be in the comment.
There are plenty of traps of thinking someone saying something is something becuase they say it.

However for those that want credibility in other forms, that is easy to show also. Some of stuff like talking about family lines, is about explaining it in a perspective they understand better. It really is spiritual, but when they make an argument based on family lines, it is easier to show that does not hold as an argument either, since there are some that can't accept it is not about lines of heredity. Most know it is spiritual.

And it really is about credibility in the comment.
