1. I'm not following you. Do you object to the smearing OF them or BY them?

2. Yes
it is a slap in the face, and an insult to my intellegence.
But I don't have a vested interest in supporting lying, criminal bastards.

If I were a defense contractor, oil executive, or their pet congress critter/talking head, I might root for Karl with both flabby arms in the air like a couch potato rooting a winning touchdown every time they sank to a new low.

3. The TRUTH does not consitute a "smear".
"Smearing" is using lies and disinformation to intentionally destroy a person's character.

Presenting the TRUTH with respect to the consequences of a person's actions is NOT a "smear".

7. WTF are you talking about? WHAT "smearing" against "smearers",...

These traitorous bastards SOLD OUT OUR PEOPLE AND OUR NATION. Everything they have done involved their own self-interest and they actually betrayed their own people to exploit them,...FOR POWER AND PROFIT!!!

11. Bet Cheney still says he's never met John Edwards.
and 50% of Americans believe him.

But the other 50% know that he's nothing, I mean NOTHING, but a liar.
