The Romney Campaign and Lies:
What Is The Calculation Behind Romney's Campaign Of Lies? | OurFuture.org
Interesting article. The romney campaign is attempting to win the election by spreading a series of lies.
According to the article, through the use of the right wing media machine and a continual repetition of the lies, people eventually begin to believe them as truths. The Romney campaign is making false statements again and again, and these lies are presented as statements to the naive voter again and again until he or she believes it to be true.
This technique of repeating lies over and over again, repeating them so much that they become truths has been taken directly out the the third reich's playbook. I don't want to compare Romney to Nazi Germany but these disingenuous methods of gaining voter support closely mimics methods used by the third reich. Making your way into power by the use of some repetitive false statements....
The lies are being placed one by one into the right wing machine by both Romney and Ryan. At the RNC, the false information they spewed to the public is very troubling. If this technique continues to be used more and more frequently, and the entire media machine is compromised, the results would permanently incapacitate the accuracy of the press.
If leaders generate a new statement which is indeed a lie, but it is repeated enough times a person will conclude that the statement must indeed be true because it's so frequently made. For if the statement was a lie, how could it be repeated over and over again and again?
This is just the beginning...
Yours is the typical broad brush Liberal sweeping generalizations that amounts to an Everest of CRAP when a comparison of the
DETAILS of each inappropriate or dubious category of political behaviour is examined.
This technique has been used by Obama surrogates in more than one of the threads. And, I have challenged as many of those as I read with the following:
Regarding the comparison of distortions and outright lies must always take into consideration the factors involved as stated in my previous comment:
Granted there are some distortions, and obfuscations in every election by both sides in every election.
However the magnitude, the frequency, the divisiveness, the trumped up "class warfare" and the particular PROVEN LIES by the Obama surrogates and the preposterous Obama Agenda trumps anything else in Political Smears throughout American History.......except the political smears against that lovely indomitable courageous Gov Sarah Palin where Obamarrhoidal smears went so far as to lambast her children, and her Down syndrome child in particular. Even in the case of Paul Ryan's "marathon" crappola: compare this minutiae with the actual smear of Romney being a murderer of a cancer-ridden woman, etc ...
Plus, comparing economic errors one must also consider the respective frequency and magnitude and not simply sweep them away under the overall category that errors occur. To wit, consider the frequency and magnitude of Obamarrhoidal DISASTERS, again mentioned in my previous post:
Thus spending $5 Trillion in 31/2 years DOUBLE what Dubya spent in 8 ....... Having America with LESS jobs NOW than when Obama took office in 2008, having more than TWICE Americans on food stamps than when Obama took office, with ONE in SIX Americans living in Poverty, a condition unequalled in our History since the Great Depression ..... running a re-election campaign based on hatred of those who succeed and actually create jobs ......concentrating on nitpicking criticisms such as the "marathon" mispeaks instead of discussing, and/or at least taking responsibility for his failed Agenda .......all this indicates that justifying Obama's failed policies by repeating phoney BS by his surrogates is not only beneath contempt.....it is pathetic.
As to your transparent effort to gloss over Obama's UNCONSTITUTIONAL "Dream Act" Directive as being something DISCUSSED on a Bi-partisan level ???? It is one thing to consider some future legislation and iron out the particulars THEN PUT IT TO A VOTE.....and another to pass the "Dream Act" WITHOUT THE NECESSARY VOTE BY THE FULL CONGRESS on the final document with all the details ironed out
And, to paraphrase a fellow liberal, you may not give a flying f*** whether the DNC allows the association of blatant and flagrant proudly avowed America-Haters, i.e., ENEMIES OF AMERICA such as the Cop Killing, Al Queda & HAMAS supporter Siraj Wahhaj and his Islamofascistic Swine followers to be accepted under the DNC aegis for the opportunistic Muslim Vote grab, but any American worth the name of being an American decries that sort of abomination as being BEYOND OUTRAGEOUS !!!
Addendum:
In case I didn't make it clear in my post above:
Obama cannot possibly run on his OBVIOUS DISASTROUS 4 YEAR RECORD, hence he is attempting to get re-elected by OUTRAGEOUS BRIBERY AND CRONY "SOLYNDRA" TYPE PAYOLA: He has BRIBED THE BIG UNIONS and the various ENTITLEMENT-LADEN GROUPS, Obama has his RACIST NEGRO VOTE LOCKED UP .....NO MATTER HOW IDIOTIC HIS ECONOMIC POLICIES ARE.....HE HAS BRIBED THE LATINO VOTE BY HIS UNCONSTITUTIONAL "DREAM ACT" ......OBAMA HAS KISSED THE BUTT OF OUR ISLAMOFASCIST ENEMIES IN ORDER TO GRAB THE MUSLIM VOTE BY ARROGANTLY ALLOWING BLATANT & FLAGRANT AVOWED ENEMIES OF AMERICA SUCH AS THE COP KLLING, AL AQUEDA & HAMAS SUPPORTING IMAM SIRAJ WAHHAJ and his ISLAMOFASCIST SWINE CONGREGANT SUPPORTERS, WITH FBI INDICTED RECORDS, AS BEING PART OF THE DNC ACTIVITIES ......And, basically BUYING the votes of the young, single women, and college kids.
This is the adittional information on the Muslim Darling Imam Siraj WahhaJ the DNC embraced for its arrogantly transparent Muslim Vote Grab:
Democrats Embrace Siraj Wahhaj: Supporter of Cop-Killer, Al Qaeda and Hamas
Posted by Laura L. Rubenfeld Bio ↓ on Aug 29th, 2012 Comments ↓
In just a few days, the Democratic National Convention “kick off events” week will include its first ever “Jumah (Arabic for gathering) at the DNC” – three Islamic-centered events beginning with a Friday afternoon prayer and sermon, an evening Islamic banquet and an all-day Islamic festival.
Many of the individuals scheduled to speak during the DNC week have extremely spurious backgrounds, including, astonishingly, support for Al Qaeda and for the U.S. State Department-designated terrorist organization, Hamas.
The celebrity Imam or “Grand Imam” slated for the event is Imam Siraj Wahhaj.
As this article will demonstrate, Wahhaj has a thirty-year, well-documented history of supporting terror and preaching religious and racial intolerance against Americans. For decades, Wahhaj has preached violence and insurrection against the U.S. with the goal of replacing the Constitution with shari’ah law, as the law of the land.
Here is Wahhaj in his own words:
“Islam is better than democracy- Allah will cause his deen [Islam as a complete way of life], Islam to prevail over every kind of system, and you know what? It will happen.”
The following is a two-part profile on the man who will headline “Jumah at the Democratic National Convention.”
And howzabout this:
Siraj Wahhaj Expresses Pride to Be on a List of Alleged Terrorists
Imam Siraj Wahhaj was alleged to be associated with the terrorist cabal organizing the 1993 World Trade Center bomb plot. For that reason, his name was included on a list of the 172 unindicted co-conspirators in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Soon after, Wahhaj commented during one of his at-Taqwa sermons, “I’m not frightened by no list, by no government! I thank Allah. I’m honored that they thought enough of me to put me on a list.” [xxxvii]
Siraj Wahhaj’s Self-proclaimed Support for U.S.-based Al Qaeda Operatives
Rafik Abdus Sabir and Tarik Shah are two terror operatives, indicted in 2005 for plotting to open an Al Qaeda training camp in the U.S. Both Sabir and Shah had sworn allegiance to Osama Bin Laden. [xxxviii] Sabir, a Columbia University-educated medical doctor in Boca Raton, Florida, pledged that he would fly to Saudi Arabia to provide medical aid and train Al Qaeda terrorists. The other operative, Tarik Shah, was the son of a former Malcolm X aide[xxxix] and was also himself associated with the Nation of Islam. [xl] At a 2005 CAIR Banquet in Georgia, Siraj Wahhaj showed support for these two men.
Billmaher, compare the above behaviour of the DNC with that of RNC. Compare the MAGNITUDE & FREQUENCY of Political Misbehaviour of the DEMS and the REPS !!!
