Who is more gullible, those that let Wright sway them or those that let Kantor sway them?
Truth be damned.

Spin is in!

Has it come down to the person who wins the spin --- wins? Is that it?

As angry as many Obama supporters are over the corporate media shills spinning Wright 24/7 to the exclusion of all else in the universe, I know NOT ONE Obama supporter who changed to Hillary because of Wright. But some impressionable folks bought the bait and switch, if you believe Obama took a hit in the polls this week.

Will the same impressionable folks now be swayed back in the other direction because of Kantor? Not on DU, but out there is a group of lemmings that just wants to be pulled off a cliff by the media whores. They can't think for themselves!

Fuck the truth.

Now it's all about who can deliver the best zinger - and we only care about that "undecided" core of the idiot electorate that does whatever the MSM tells them to believe. Who will win their vote?

1. Who loves America more? Kantor or Wright?
And, more importantly, who is the better bowler?

3. Smear by proxy....
they smeared Obama for what another person said, they tried to do the same with Clinton...and we allowed it, in Obama's case. It is all bullshit, and it stinks of Rove tactics...how does it feel being played?

4. I disagree--if this were Obama's staff or associates, the Clinton campaign
would have been all over the "shit" remark.

7. The MEDIA...who is owned by WHO?
It is a campaign to use our feud against us...they are using us. They know our emotions about this campaign are running at a fevered pitch, and they are using it. They are aiming out BOTH CANDIDATES. The entire PARTY. No matter who gets the nomination, they will be crippled by these smear jobs by proxy.

They put out a doctored video, just hours after the Wright controversy was in it's reprised mode....First it is Obama, then Clinton...like Clockwork. The Target IS THE PARTY. And we are being used.

8. I don't care, if it hurts Hillary. I'd be glad to see her destroyed no matter how it has to happen.

18. Comeon doggie...
Don't stoop to that level, I don't care much for Hillary either, but she is a democrat. This smacks of an orchestrated effort to damage the entire party...Not just Clinton.

5. The difference is, most DUers pay enough attention...
Edited on Fri May-02-08 01:07 PM by RiverStone
...to see it for what it (being Wright and maybe Kantor) as a smear!

Where my anger knows no resolution is how to compensate for the lies the media shills continue to dispense that many idiots still believe. What they did to Obama on Wright was grossly unfair!

We are being played alright, but for those wise enough to see it - it hurts more, because we know what's happening.

And I have no fucking clue how to stop it.

my bullshit detector is tingling already.

12. The ones that let Wright sway them for weeks...
..unless this nearly-a-story somehow lasts into next week.

I won't feel too ashamed for falling for it for almost twenty minutes.

15. Kind of gives us an idea how difficult it will be for the Repigs to Swiftboat Clinton doesn't it?
Repigs aren't smart enough to get over on her because she isn't going to take lying down being lied about by the media. And they were going to try. She was ready for them.

Clinton only has two modes. Attack and counterattack. Something we would all appreciate in a general election.

16. What do you mean "Fuck the truth"? A majority of Americans and Obama himself
say Wright is a valid issue.

19. How will one be swayed?
I doubt very much this Kantor thing will be pimped 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for 3 weeks running. Has it even been mentioned by the paid to say pimps? I doubt the illegal robo-calls will see the light of day either. Hillary's Prayer Group will never hit Prime Time either.
