smiling faces http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgA2Sn3b6OMOn BuzzFeed today, Ben Smith argues that Paul Ryan’s false statements don’t matter that much because behind them are real policy differences with Obama. The core of Smith’s argument is this:The Democrats are hoping to do to Paul Ryan what Republicans so successfully did to Al Gore: To conflate stray real personal exaggerations; rhetorical simplifications; and actual policy differences into an unfair character attack. Ryan (and now Romney) is in fact far more honest than any Republican national figure in memory in his explicit plan to turn Medicare into a less-expensive voucher system and to cut health care spending for poor people deeply.Notably, Smith doesn’t really try to argue that Ryan’s statements are actually true. He just employs language to diminish their importance. The piece refers to “exaggerations,” “simplifications,” ” being tendentious,” and “caricature[s].”
are you willing to except lies and misleading by exclusion as a positive message of the right wing?
take a look all those things are the very things they have done and now are trying again to say this admin. is doing it. Hitler mustaches, swastikas, Pres. in Muslim dress, not an American, birther's just some of the racist caricatures they have done, bones in the nose, really?
Ben Smith argues that Paul Ryan's false statements don't matter
is this confirmation of the lie's then a brush off as they don't mean anything, really? a liar in the white house is nothing new for republicans but what is, is their blatant admission of guilt and complicity? we are to elect them anyway. they don't care it's their foundation built on lies, but "we the people" do not want a liar in the WH if he lies to get there he'll keep lying to stay. recognize
