Some people only pay attention to talking points. Why do you think there are so many click bait headlines? Sustaining only the intellectual conversation bypasses a lot of good people who often simply don’t have the time to spare delving into issues.
unfortunately the gnat’s vote is as important as the professor’s vote. In the real world, we need some of those gnats.
might be interested if I have the time. Let me know details.
I disagree with you talking points work short term with people that don’t think through the issues. yes that day you win the propaganda war but what happens long term to the base and when you use talking points. I have watched over the last thirty years as the demacrat party has slowly lost its ability to think critically on issues while republicans mainly conservative have refined this ability. thirty years ago I would of had no problem occasionally voting for a demacrat ( I know sacrilege admitting this on the free republic web site) but to day there is no way that I would because the democrats have so radicalized and lost the ability to think for themselves on issues. within the demacrat party there is a small group that determines what the parties position is and most of them are scared to differ from the orthodoxy of conformity of opinion. having a talking point on a issues for that day might win a a skirmish but in the end it will lose you the war as those who use talking points start to think less for themselves and conform with the orthodoxy with in our own party. it scares me to think the damage that group think could do over a 30 year period.
Ok you disagree. So don’t get involved with this.
Jeeze
exactly

I don’t think it’s a bad idea. I don’t think it would be used as the Rats use their morning email of bullet points from the Great Big Head and just parrot the words verbatim. Rats aren’t capable to reasoning: conservatives are.
Everyone in the conservative media isn’t able to know everything that’s going on, so it might be efficient to have a compendium available for them to scan every few hours.
For example, on Judge Jeanine’s show she was discussing the voter fraud in Florida with a guest — Matt Gaetz, I think. He referred to an occurrence that had happened that day that was important. Judge was unaware. To be able to scan a document quickly might be useful.
Perhaps we can start?
Would you please BTTT?
Amateur? I actually typed that as amatuer the first time and spellcheck only gave me ammeter as a correction. Weird. So no worries, I didn't get it right the first time either.
Anyway, can you tell me more about the dems operation and what makes it so sophisticated and expensive?
It will be in a different, private site.
