Like Paplov’s dog experiment, the public has been trained to hate everything connected with President Bush and Republicans.

And this is partially because Bush wanted to "change the tone" in D.C. and play nice guy. Imagine if Bush had personally gone directly to the people in these post-Iraq war days? Maybe some networks would have refused to cover it, but that wouldn't have happened more than once. The Bush administration gave up on the media as soon as it took office. Big mistake.

The entire ‘tone’ after the 2000 election was ‘selected’ not ‘elected’ President Bush. It was all meant to ‘chop him off at the knees’ from the beginning.
No Mandate, No Credibility

A disturbing file was discovered on Obama's webserver last night.

For those who missed it...

I don’t know if he’s a Muslim or not but he has spent 20 years in an anti-American, anti-white racist “church”. That and his domestic and foreign policy proposals are enough for me. Whatever he is, he is NO GOOD for the USA.

respond aggressively to online rumours that Barack Obama is unpatriotic and a Muslim.

"respond aggressively".

But not "deny".

It’s also just another plan to have the great unwashed masses at each others throats; so they continue their assualt on America.

A crack team of cybernauts will form a rapid response internet “war room” to track and respond aggressively to online rumours that Barack Obama is unpatriotic and a Muslim.

Is this the same crack team that can't seem to keep 9/11 Truthers and pro-Hamas groups off of Obama's own web site?

Can’t deny what you say. Bush stood back while the media crucified him. Sadly, in many ways, he brought this on himself. He allowed the media to set the tone and played defense for almost 8 years rather than fight for what we elected him to do.

At least when Bill Clinton was attacked, he had ‘Move On’, but then collectivism works well with progressives.
Organizing Republicans is like ‘herding cats’.

Bama trolls have been here for awhile, but we’ll be seeing more of them.
The Hillary trolls will be morose but game for causing trouble.
Just wish I could be on more often to play with them.

I have never said that Obama is a Muslim.

However, Muslims see him as a Muslim.

Perception is everything.
