55. the best way to fix this shit is for the left to have a searchable record of the daily RW radio rep

etition from the main national and local blowhards. the BS needs to be responded to in real time- before they become established.

these RW hacks and trolls owe their acceptability to the fact the left doesn't know what's happening on RW radio- those hacks know the lies and BS they repeat has already been pounded into the earholes of 50 mil a week- enough to make even the biggest lie a fact to tens of millions. the right's been creating made-to-order constituencies for any issue and they can do it from the think tanks in days.

dems and progressives in media need to regularly respond to them with "that's what limbaugh said" etc.

put a RUSH tattoo on their foreheads. they are acceptable and their lies are facts because the left ignores RW radio and they end up trying to catch up and react after the cat's out of the bag- sequestration, benghazi and the IRS are perfect recent examples a few of many RW successes the last 25 years.
