We have seen the right-wing in action now since the 2000 election using the same tactics. It's a pattern. So I put out this DU Challenge for those with video expertise. Put a montage of the tactics and the debunking that goes along with it. In this video you need to include at least:
(1) The storming of the Miami office where ballots were being counted by Republican DC insiders. (2) The John Kerry swiftboating. (3) The Dan Rather font hysteria over G. Bush's documents. (4) The Obama birth certificate issue including this latest attempt to apply the same Dan Rather misinformation.
Like I said, there is a pattern. They are thugs and troublemakers who have no ounce of truth to anything they say, but they manage to confuse the voters long enough to distract us.

around for more than a century now. However, before this we also had an independent free press who debunked much of it. Now the press are the propagandists.

2. If we could set it to music, however, I think we might take it viral. |

My vote is for the Chemical Brothers for background music.
