No, WE didn't. They LIE, and LIE, then LIE some more. And the morans eat it up. And then the MSM runs with it because they can make it a story.

No, we did NOT LET repugs paint him with that brush. They had the paint ready and jumped on a sign they saw in a protest and LIED.
It's what they do best. LIE.

I ask you. How do WE stop those lies. Do we spend our entire budgets defending the lies? Do we ignore them? How do we defend the LIES? The media will run with the message that gets the most viewers. They do not care about the truth, only viewers and advertisers.

Again, how do we stop repugs from LYING?
