And what they are really expert at is inventing their own reality.
WANT MORE PAIN ????????? VOTE Mc CAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
The truth is, it's the Republican positions that are ridiculous (drilling will lower the price of oil? hello?), as comedians like Stewart, Colbert, and Maher point out all the time. By saying Obama is unserious about the energy problem, they're using that Rove tactic of ascribing their weakness to their opponent. (as if it was John Kerry who was the draft dodger, for example). But, as those same comedians show, humor, ridicule and satire -- these are all tools very much in the progressive movement's wheelhouse. We need to reclaim them as tools in our campaigns, as well, not just in our commentary.
Why does McSame still have this on his website?
Because he and his campaign know that the Dems will naever make an issue of it, or if they do it will not be loud or forceful enough.
it doesn't matter if McSame had "Omaba eats live babies" on his website. Nobody on the Dem side would raise a fuss, and people are too stupid to actually do any research themselves. They'd just be gobbling to each other across the clothesline that "Obama eats babies!" the next day.
Get it TOGETHER, Dems!
And much more seriously...go rent the documentary "Crude Awakening". Sure it's a leftist view but there are many fine scientists in the flick who are saying that we are now at peak oil. And we just don't wanna face it as a culture. I will get around just fine on my Ebike and the Dallas light rail but I may not have any food, or medicine, or clothing, because there will be no oil left to run truck freight. The clock is ticking down fast and our little oil party keeps going like there is no tomorrow.
If American idiot voters allow the GOP to run the show another 8 years, with their oil golfing buddies making obscene profits, you had better fucking well plan to turn your property into an efficient garden. Otherwise you will not have food. And while you are at it, add some herbs because there will be no medicines. Oh and I would go to Walmart right now and get some guns. As well as strong fencing for that garden. A whole lotta spoiled princesses and princes are gonna try to get your food. The same assholes who still love Bush and McSame. Packets of seeds will be selling for $50 a packet.
WANT MORE PAIN ????????? VOTE McCain !!!!!!!!!!!!!
And then, there's the MSM!

Unfortunately, most Americans are as stupid as John McStain.
I tuned into MSTIM's Highball last night around 7:19pm...A little after 7:20, admitted plagiarist Mike Barnacle made an angry reference saying:
"These nitwits at their computers who blog all day long..."
Is Mike angry because so many bloggers write original material?
Problem is, the Obama's-energy-plan device that I bought yesterday is in serious disagreement with the similar device on my portable compressor that I keep in the trunk for this very thing. I have a feeling that nearly all consumer-grade pressure gauges are seriously off and there's no sane means of calibration or even checking.
It's not about who's right or wrong. It's about who casts the first punch. Republicans know nothing about energy conservation or how to run a country, but they sure know how to ruin, I mean run, a good campaign.
If you think of high school as a microcosm of our county, who usually became class president? Was it the brainy nerd in the corner or the loud-mouth football captain who had the hottest dates? (No disrespect at all of you HS football captains...) So it's not enough that McSame is wrong on facts, he's just loud, offensive, and has a "hot" chick on his side.
College is not a microcosm of the US, because the US is just not that well-educated.
The faulty pressure guages were designed to sabbotage Ob's energy plan.
We need to define McCain. Obama is looking just as weak as every other Democratic front runner. Negative ads do work even when they are false. McCain is being a free pass by the press. AP is in the pocket, CBS actually re-engineers Q&A to cover his mistakes and the rest of the MSM is in corporate pocket. There are valid issues concerning his ties to big business, flip-flops (pandering to the right) and mental acuity. These take negative ads. However, neither we nor the press are hitting them.
Do you know how pathetic the victory over a tire pressure gage sounds while Obama loses ground and the Republicans keep hitting and defining him as irrelevant. Only Paris Hilton seems to get the idea as to what needs to be done.
Obama will lose and I will become a Republican. The Democrats just seem to be bent on proving that they are a worthless, gutless party unwilling to fight for what they believe in. I may as well try to change the Republicans from the inside because even with control of the Congress, the democrats will lose the presidency and fail to effectively legislate.
The Nail-McCain ad I'd like to see.
The Republicans mocked Jimmy Carter for warning us about an upcoming energy crisis. Carter was right. Republicans were wrong.
The Republicans laughed at Al Gore's warning about global warning. Gore was right. Republicans were wrong.
NOW the Republicans are making fun of Obama for saying we'd save as much fuel wuth routine auto maintenance as we would with new offshore drilling. And Obama was right, Republicans are wrong.
Republicans: Wrong about EVERYTHING.
1) so rich you don't care about $4+ gas or
b) too fuckin stupid to know how to use it.
in other words, the Repuke base
because he's John F-ing McCain........that's why.
In over a million miles in fifty years, I've never had a tire wear out in the center because it was over-inflated, and usually get more miles use than the tire mfrs advertise.
Obama is right, McCain is wrong, a tire gauge is a very good reminder of this fact, and helps the environment. Obama should have it for sale // giveaway at his site!
