Kos Moonbats-SCHIP family being Freeped!(We're "Swiftboating Them! ROTFLMAO!)
TCRLAF | 10-08-07 | ME!

DEFINITION: Swiftboating; Speaking TRUTH in the face of Democrat Propoganda

The Idiots at Kos have a huge thread running on the exposure of the "SCHIP" family by Free Republic members, that Rush mentioned today, and it's utterly HILARIOUS!

They are freaking out that we would DARE to question thier "Facts"... "UPDATE #2 Whiskeyfire has a very informative blog on this too (hat tip nyseer courtesy of Atrios)

As the day goes on, bigger and bigger smear merchants are picking this up (including The Weekly Standard).

All are (of course) listing Free Republic as the mother source. This limits any culpability and fact checking of their own.

UPDATE #3 Michelle Malkin has this story up on her site, but she's done the extra step of going to Halsey Frost's business and quizzing his tenant on his political ideology. She also drove by the Frost home... ostensibly to see how much it was worth.

There are many points being brought up, amongst them whether it's right to bring children and anecdotes to a political debate.

I don't think that this is the issue. The issue is that the right wing, led by The Free Republic and picked up by Mark Steyn and Michelle Malkin are attacking the people that come out against their propaganda.

The Frosts aren't running for office; they are trying to live their lives after a horrible accident left their children with permanent disabilities.

Knowing the types of people that are involved in this Swift Boating, it's even more terrifying to know that this families personal records and address are going the rounds courtesy of Free Republic. If anything else happens to this family, I hope God will have mercy on their souls.

And then, we have the "lousy Freeper Troll"...

"the family likely did not purchase much auto insurance if they didn't purchase health insurance. They may have had minimum liability coverage which won't cover a week of ICU and a handful of surgeries. PIP insurance is usually a small amount - is 'no-fault' an unlimited coverage?"

How dare he insert things like FACTS into the discussion???

Just some insanity for you to peruse...

My husband won't insure us, but Clinton will.

God forbid reasonable people question and find their “poster child” not as they wish us to believe.

They better get used to the scrutiny of their propaganda.

So does this mean John Denver is alive, and sporting trendy facial hair?

Picture shows an interesting family dynamic. It's pretty easy to tell who wears the pants in the family...husband looks like one of the kids.

There was a picture online with the family meeting Pelosi, et al. Mom was wearing a shirt that showed off a tattoo on her boob. Says a lot about a person, when they go to a public function (with press coverage no less), to meet a high ranking dignitary, and decide to flash a little skin.

Any “attack” on the parents is simply pointing out that Private schools, and home remodelings, were more important than HEALTH CARE INSURANCE, to these parents...

At what point does failure of the parents to parent become a financial burden on MY part??

Look. Government involvement in health care means more government control over Americans. There is no rational dispute on this.

For anyone to suggest that private enterprise, personal responsibility and individual choice equates to “control” is simply disconnected from reality.

Where’s the pic of the terrorist hiding behind a baby carriage?

I thought that only came out when Dem governors were looking to raise taxes. Along with the "Republican Body Bags For Seniors" program.

How dare someone outside of the MSM do REAL JOURNALISM and ask REAL QUESTIONS!

"I've never once heard of any liberal group, no matter how far flung to the fringe they are, actively pursue an opponent the way some of these right-wingers do."

I have. MSNBC, CBS News, NBC News, ABC News, CNN, AP, Reuters, New York Times, Washington Post, Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle,...(partial listing)

They won't ask the tough questions of people on their side. So people like Michelle Malkin do.

The FACTS always kill liberal arguements, which is why they hate hearing them...dismiss them as propaganda and attack the messenger...honestly...who cares what the felons at KOS think.

The real issue is that the Democrats are pulling out the stops to consciously lie to the American people and the MSM is pandering to them.

It’s getting to the point of societal war...they have no desire to listen to the facts, it doesnt play to the dem agenda of social control, and we’re tired of showing them (democrats/liberals) empirical evidence of their ignorance... Sooner or later we’re all going to come to the realization that words alone are not going to solve this problem.

How about this for spin.
For the price of the airline tickets for these people to come and be tools, the Hillary campaign could have personally provided them health insurance for several years. Instead, they speak in front of a mic as tools for Hillary for 5 minutes and walk away, still uninsured. That’s how the left always works. Always victims, never solutions.

You would think the dad would make more money from the John Denver tribute concerts alone.

I’d be interested too. This is the first I’m reading anything about this and now what to research it!

Typical leftist stunt. Do your worst and then when called on it, claim innocence.

FReepers need to tread carefully, here. Don't want this to be construed as an attack on some kid (which it's not) rather than on the Dem power structure and the parents who were stupid enough to let the kid shill for the Dems and open their family up to public scrutiny (which it is).

One small correction: the Democrats weren't "stupid enough to let the kid shill for the Dems," the Democrats used the kid as a human shield for just this purpose. They knew that President Bush was going to veto the bill, and they purposefully hid behind the boy's "doctrine of infallibility" to attack anyone who dares attack the boy's message.
