2. What's going on here
...is your attempt to clone a BOG callout thread into a second forum.

4. It's definitely a call-out thread.
Edited on Thu Nov-04-10 10:43 PM by Blue_In_AK
I don't get involved in those because I find them petty and meaningless.

Not to mention somewhat paranoid delusional. Republican psy-ops? Puh-leeze. Real Democrats can have those very thoughts, real Democrats that have been Democrats for decades.

Pffft...

14. Indeed.
Are these issues we're not allowed to talk about for some reason?

19. I'm not following you? Why can't we discuss these?
For instance the false information about Obama and his huge expenditures for the Asia trip, CNN is covering this lie. We should discuss it. Earlier it appeared here.

24. We get into fights about this kind of stuff,
and then some of us get tombstoned. Better to just smile and nod sometimes.

31. absolutely it is a call-out thread
it's disgustingly divisive as it just makes people more suspicious of anyone who is critical. We already hear it from a group here, and this now just escalates that bs.

13. Nope. I'm monitoring an anti-Obama / anti-Democratic site right now.
And no, I'm not talking about DU. I'm also drinking a cup of my grandma's famous recipe, rolled helm tea. Want some?

22. They have started their 2012 campaign. These are rumor mills
designed to get into the ether and get the Democrats
angry at each other . Weaken your opposition before
they even start to fight.

There was a rumor going today about Dean and or Feingold
primarying Obama. Some people bit into the apple for a while.

They are always in it to win it. Tactics do not matter
whatever it takes.

So Pschological Operations are an idea copied from special
operations forces (Delta Force). In Politics, often
it is rumors set about to confuse and distract your opposition.

30. If you have more info on the Delta Force Ops
please direct me if you can or PM me anytime thanks.

I wonder if they yet know who started the rumor exaggerating the costs etc. of Obama's trip to Asia.

33. Work At Home! Get paid to write RW emails and comments on Web forums!
We will also pay you to "write" responses to News Articles that appear on the internet! We supply the copy! Easy work, great pay!


You really didn't think that there are more republicans than democrats on the net, did you?
Read the comments on any politically related news article. They appear seconds after the articles are posted, and the RW talking points outnumber dems by about 4/1.
