Progressives are facing well-coordinated organizing and propaganda efforts by corporate front groups spurring the astroturf protests, abetted by conservative and even mainstream media outlets.Watch It:Dirty little secrets Dirty little lies We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie We love to cut you down to size We love dirty laundry We can do the innuendo We can dance and sing When its said and done we haven't told you a thing We all know that crap is king Give us dirty laundry!
While every Bushie and right wing journalist is trying to color this ugly picture of corporate sponsored "grassroots" wing nut nightmare as the product of liberals, the reality of what is going on is beyond distasteful. To observe that Fox 24-hours-of-bullshit News is actively involved is telling. Point of fact, I've been invited to attend opposition protest before but I have never received a script on how to be rude, disrespectful or disruptive. I've been told to lend my voice, but in terms of asking questions and giving the speaker a chance to answer my question. In essence, I have never been asked to act like a zombie-like sheep. So the crap that is going on now is not the same as liberal protest (just like liberals never told people to get up and revolt to the tune of killing people, such as the loony right has done and continue to do so). Let's not get this twisted, it is only a matter of time before the more blatant posters (reeking of racism) start turning up at these town hall meetings. It is more than clear that this is a campaign to make sure those that have real questions, considering the bullshit being put out by the conservatives and republicans, regarding health care get no answers. Yet, no matter how you paint this picture, the right wing nuts are getting scary with their desire to be pawns. If corporate America start recruiting them to commit murder, what? From this display, they would be more then willing. If anything this display of unhinged passion will harden a lot of hearts against this kind of Rovian tactic.
