Now, will you please provide specific examples of other instances in which I have failed to refute nonsense coming from the mouths of right-wing knaves?

There you go again..... I never refuted that fact...... I was calling out you on your ignorance of the media and your one sided hatred

It has become so routine and so common that you just have to wonder what sort of mental defects cause a person to be so gullible and ignorant as the average conservative.
They're dull people. It's that simple. This type of ideology appeals to dullards. That's why they believe nonsense time and again.

It is calculated. It is very calculated. What you are witnessing is the republican Party unleashing their far right fringe, political pit bulls. The message to be disseminated now is that "Everything is a conspiracy". Two weeks from now it will be something else and they will all be on the same page. In professional political circles it is known as getting your SOCO out. (Single Overiding Communication Objective) it is an actual term and every professional pundit or internet message bearer know the tactic. For example, the Temple Shooting. The SOCO there is to first imply it's a government plot and then swing the whole event back to President Obama. There's not a grain of truth but that doesn't matter. The objective is to create doubt. This election is very close. If These pit bulls can create doubt in two undecided voters out of a hundred then they have achieved their goal. The republican establishment is doing nothing to stop the falsehoods. Remember when John McCain had the town hall meeting and the woman got up and accused Obama of being a Muslum? John McCain shut her down quickly. Ever since then, the Republicans have hated McCain and you don't hear any mainstream republican speaking out against the current rantings of the fringe.

As usual, the Democrats are bringing a knife to a political gunfight. They just can't believe that this is total political war and destruction. they still think reasonable men are involved.

Who is unleashing the "pit bulls"?? Right after the Colorado shooting the democrats tried to amend the cyber security bill with gun control legislation and they tried to push through a second one to boot. That is not a conspiracy it is right there for all to see. Many will of course look the other way.

As for the election all one has to do is look at the actions of Dirty Harry Reid and the nonstop calls for tax returns to be handed over by the democrats. All of course to deflect from the job the great one is doing. Not to mention calling Romney a felon and now a murderer in political ads. You call that bringing a knife? LOL.

Local talk show host at first tries to explain that the UN cannot do this but then gives up, thus allowing it to spread with the tin-foil crowd.

Yes, I heard about this little gem a while ago. All I can say to anyone who believes it is...stupid is as stupid does.

These stories always make me chuckle. The RW blogs and sites that come up with this crap are absolutely hilarious. The only things that dampens my enjoyment of these stories is that people actually believe them. That makes me sad.

They cannot do this? They are and have been. It draft wasn't passed last month but it's not as if it's all made up. Do you even pay attention to what is going on or just chuckle at the radio and blog sites? I don't see how something that is being drafted up by the UN is a conspiracy.
