that the Dems don't have a propaganda channel. We are not "like them" which is true, but then we sit and watch the populace get brainwashed by bullshit and we basically wring our hands. There has to be a counter to the lies and distortions, but I don't know how we get it thru to the people that most need it.

It's maddening when Dems take the high road only to watch the road erode from under our feet.
