I've thought for many years how stupid most conservatives are, how they don't like to read, stuff like that...and it's true, BUT...?

...I think they've outsmarted us on one thing.

Propaganda.

They are good at it. They are steady, unwavering. They will tell a lie all day every day for YEARS if they need to - because they know it doesn't matter if it's TRUE - if the public hear those sound bites OVER AND OVER again, eventually it will BECOME true for many gullible or less-than-informed people.

The "Crooked Hillary" narrative started a QUARTER CENTURY ago. From the moment Hillary Clinton tried to enact Universal Healthcare, Single Payer. They hated that she was a woman who dared to try to get something done. And they hated the notion of providing healthcare to anyone. Period. SO - for over 20 years, they have LIED about her OVER AND OVER again, made scandals where there were none, etc.

AND EVEN SOME LIBERALS NOW THINK SHE'S LESS TRUSTWORTHY THAN F-ING DONALD TRUMP, A SERIAL LIAR RATED THE #1 LIAR BY POLITIFACT, A CON MAN, A MAN WHO HAS BEEN SUED OVER 3,000 TIMES FOR SCREWING WORKERS.

PROPAGANDA. Republicans do it well.

It's sick. But they do it well. Just turn on Fox News for a while and you'll see what I mean. Nice colors, red, white & blue, hot babes, nice lighting, and a STORM OF LIES. I've never turned on Fox and seen the truth, except a short viewing of Shep Smith here and there.

    True. Conservatives have few positive qualities but they are fucḱing tenacious, like zombies.

    It's too bad they're almost always on the side of evil. Imagine what humanity could accomplish if we could somehow herd the conservatives into backing a good cause for a change.

    You are absolutely right. I hear liberals talk about Hillary's lies and disreputable character all the time, but all of that came from the media's portrayal of her and not anything she has done. They say she should be in jail, but has committed no criminal offense.

    The Benghazi investigation came up empty.

    The email situation does not make her a federal criminal.

    It isn't just Fox Noise. The mainstream media has helped promulgate the anti-Clinton nonsense. The right-wing is a machine, and an effective one at that. The "Corrupt Hillary" thing has caught on despite the truth that the moniker lacks any basis in fact.

    I've lived through her horshyt time and time again she's on the news doing something unethical. She was Fired For lying during Watergate. Do you know what that is? I don't watch fox. I don't have to.You can defend her all you want but she is not out for your best interest I guarantee it!!!

    The question is whom to vote for in November, either the first lady president, or the first non-politician president. It's a great election year.

    Conservatives might have outsmarted liberals with the propaganda machine, but it won't last. Eventually, deceit and lies catch up, and I actually think we are now witnessing the unraveling of that approach and attack.

    That is because they have been refining their technique over the last 40years since Ford lost to Carter!

    You are the typical indoctrinated Liberal Democrat who has no idea what their Leaders are doing. None.
