As long as the accepted truth

As long as the accepted truth includes that Newt is an intellectual genius, Romney could "run the US as a successful business," and other similar BS, we have to conclude that the republicans are doing a pretty good job of controlling the message.

However, I don't think that even they are winning the semantic war that their only intention is "TO SAVE MEDICARE!" Even those who usually swallow their other nonsense realize that this is an attack on the middle class. However, since they continue to vote against common sense, they may do the same come November 2012.

I do think the Wisconsin, Ohio, and Florida horror shows may wake some people up. Who knows?

Yeah, I looked at that and thought about the double M, but spell check didn't pick it up and I was too lazy to double check. My bad. :)

Bullies are bullies because they know they can get away with doing as they damn well please and those that do haul them on the carpet really can't and won't do much to stop them.

As in the case of the voucher saving Medicare bill introduced by Ryan, call it whatever you wish, but the more Democrats identify it as a voucher, with supporting facts it is not a savings solution as claimed, the more riled their base will get and end up standing toe-to-toe against a perceived liberal onslaught to discredit the efforts of their Senators and Representatives to fix the mistakes of past Democrat administrations.

So long as Obama thinks bipartisanship will eventually triumph, the GOper's have a free hand in twisting and manipulating their efforts to undermine both the Administration and the current law of the land to bring about the changes their Party desires, regardless of what the larger public expects of them.

The only way the political bullies can be controlled would be for Obama to use the bully pulpit of his office to make GOPer's and tea-baggers sorry their mother's gave birth to them.

I'm not holding my breath.
