Most folks understand, partisan hacks notwithstanding, that the rightwing propaganda machine is slanted, misleading and outright lies in order to give their sheeple what they want. That's all well and good. It's sells advertising and musters a market base. We can't really expect much more from their followers.
But I do find it sorely disappointing, and downright scary, that our leaders in Washington were gullable enough to fall for their crap. Those people monitor the "red phone" and have their hand next to the "red button." I would expect them to be a bit smarter than the rightwing, spoonfed, sheeple. Appearantly, they are not.
If there is anything positive about this is that they are righting wrongs and making amends. And, it is also a glowing example of how our rightwing media machine lies, slants, spins their propaganda just to satisfy their America hating, disgruntled followers. I expect the RW sheeple to swallow their media spew hook, line and sinker. The get no points for intelligence. Never have. But the people in high office should know better. The common man on the street does (rightwing zealots notwithstanding. They believe anything that pleases their ear.)
