(62,325 posts)of how a 'lies and smear campaign' is born. But I never, in my wildest dreams expected to strike gold so completely.
I do intend to use those exchanges in the future to demonstrate how it is done. I knew it WAS being done, but you have to have a certain mindset to actually be able to imagine the level of commitment to distortions and lies and smears that is required to actually engage in such campaigns. I am proud to have extracted so much evidence of how it is done, and to have had so much fun doing it. The cheering section was a bit flummoxed by the 'ABA computer' nonsense. Lol. Who wouldn't be?
As for patience, I spent my early online years duking it out with Bush loyalists and enjoyed every minute, much to their distress. It was like going to Political Forum Boot Camp so I developed a very useful thick skin, insults amuse me. Maybe I'm a little weird, but every once in a while I have nothing better to do, I thoroughly enjoy going back to the old days where I learned so much about these things.
