(62,325 posts)who seem to follow me around, collecting my comments, and reposting them, apparently in the hope that there is something I have said on this forum that would be embarrassing.
It's been tried so often now, I'm beginning to wonder, is there some secret place where people are collecting DUers' comments, searching, as HB Gary was doing, for SOMETHING, ANYTHING to try to undermine him with? And FAILED because when you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about.
That's an AMAZING find you have there. I probably wouldn't have been able to find it myself if I tried, so thank you.
Because every word of it is true. Many of us were there when these 'words' and 'phrases' were compiled to use AGAINST LIBERALS, both by right wing think tanks AND by the Third Way think tank.
I am reminded of those days when we discovered the source of these verbal attacks on Liberals, when I see these words dredged up here by a few people.
And yes, one day when I have the time, I WILL compile a list so that other people can recognize them AND know the sources.
Exposing the tactics of the right, helps arm people against them.
I am FOR people being armed with the knowledge of WHO they are dealing with and there is no better way to do that, than to watch for their Think Tank 'talking points for liberals'.
Did you have something you wanted to say TO me? The third person tactic is another one that tells me a whole lot about a person.
Eg, if you were so deeply concerned about that old comment, why did you not address ME and ask what I meant? I would have been very happy to respond to you.
Doing what you just did, that is another tactic I will add to that list when I get around to writing it down.
