Democrats: A People of Deceit
Nothing frightens those who peddle lies than the cold hard light of truth. They react to exposure of their deceits the way vampires react to a having a crucifix held up in front of them.
Ever since the birth of conservative talk radio and the internet ended the liberals total monopoly over the news, the left has been simmering with impotence -- over the loss of their absolute control over what the Americans are allowed to see and hear, and their inability to do anything about it.
Time and again left-wing attempts to sell the nation their shoddy goods have been frustrated when talk-radio hosts have taken to the airwaves and warned their millions of listeners that they were about to be taken to the cleaners.
It was not until the administrations fatally flawed immigration reform bill that seemed destined for passage was derailed by army of angry voters recruited by talk radio hosts and conservative internet websites that the left understood both the incredible power of the new media and their utter helplessness in the face of it.
Clearly something had do be done, they thought. So the left, led by the slimy Media Matters organization, began a counterattack using the liberals favorite weapon the lie.
An innocuous remark by Foxs Bill OReilly praising a famous Harlem restaurant was taken out of context by the liberal mainstream media which tried to ignite a firestorm, but the public wasnt buying.
Then, when Rush Limbaugh spoke about men falsely claiming to be veterans of the Iraq war such as one, Jesse MacBeth, who told a pack of lies about his non-existent service in Iraq and whose deception had already been exposed days earlier by ABC's Charlie Gibson and Brian Ross, the left jumped on Rush falsely claiming that his attack on such phony soldiers was an attack on all Iraq war vets who criticize the war.
As Foxs John Gibson said: When MoveOn stepped on its own toes sliming Gen. Petraeus, [David] Brock of Media Matters swung into action looking for a conservative who would say something that could take the focus off MoveOn.
Enter Rush Limbaugh and the phony soldier discussion. As Gibson noted, Media Matters was so anxious to get the stink off MoveOn they made up the Rush controversy.
It was a patently obvious lie few Americans have been more supportive of the U.S. military than Rush Limbaugh and, shamefully, Democrats such as Sen. Harry Reid who had to know how false the charge was, quickly bought into it.
The whole incident shows just how desperate the liberals have become. Without the new media to keep an eye on them, their failure to accomplish their stated goals since winning control of the Congress would have been covered up by the subservient mainstream media.
Those of us in talk radio and the internet are the lefts worst nightmare our monitoring of their activities had been shining the light of truth on their attempts to deceive the nation, and their current assault on the new media is failing as a result.
Like all Marxists, the leftists wont stop trying to lie their way into power. As a result, they wont stop trying to destroy the new media. First it was Bill OReilly, then it was Rush Limbaugh and who knows wholl be next Laura Ingraham, Mike Savage, me?
You can be certain theyll find a new target, and just as certain that theyll keep pushing for a new fairness doctrine or some other way to silence the opposition. And you can be certain that whatever target they pick theyll be lying through their teeth when they attack.
They cant help themselves. The truth is not in them.
