RETHUGLICAN LIES AND FALSEHOODS

Rachel Maddow nails Rep. Michele Bachmann, Sen. James Inhofe, and conservatard columnist George Will for telling lies and spreading falsehoods. These are just three of the liars. Others include, but are not limited to, Representatives John Boehner(aka Boner) and Eric Cantor, and Senator Mitch McConnell.

With the help of a Professor from MIT, and Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson, Rachel tells the truth about their lies.

Lots of people don't watch Rachel - for whatever reasons. I think bloggers such as yourself do the country a great service by posting parts of her show. And for that, I thank them, and you.
I hope you continue to do so.

jeg43 - I really like Rachel, but don't always get a chance to watch, so I have to play catch-up thru the internet.

I plan on posting her stuff as much as I can, along with Keith Olbermann occasionally, who I also like.

Thanks for the compliment my friend.

It continually amazes me, although I know it shouldn't, how these christianist "family-values" people deliberately and repeatedly lie through their teeth.

Bachmann may be stupid, but stupid doesn't excuse outright lies.

Grandpa Eddie said...

Jacob - I'm with you on that amazement thing.

And why is it that those christianist "family-values" people seem to be THE biggest, and most often, liars!?!

One Fly said...

We need a dozen more just like her and even that wouldn't be enough to offset the lies of the right.

Grandpa Eddie said...

One Fly - I here ya pal.

She sure is doing one helluva job by herself though.

it is amazing that they can outright lie - and are not held accountable for it.

the GOP has nothing left but lies -- but most of the media allows it

Grandpa Eddie said...

D-Cap - It doesn't help when they have Fuks Newz working hard to spread the lies by contiually broadcasting the lies over, and over, and over....

SheaNC said...

This is such excellent stuff. I wish the maintream media would publicize this information!

Hey Distributor Cap - along with their lies, they also have their other favorite pastime: hypocrisy!

Grandpa Eddie said...

Shea - About the only place you'll see anything like this is Rachel's show, or Olbermann's "Countdown", or "The Ed Show" with Ed Schultz.

Eddie, like you all here, I love the MSNBC shows and the way they tell us the truth about the wingnuts lies... But, what good does it do if the wacko conservatives don't watch?? Or do you think they do tune in to the liberal leaning shows once in awhile? I doubt it, thats why they are so busy planning tea parties!

SheaNC said...

Thank goodness we have those three to counter the repukes' stranglehold on the so-called "liberal media".

And... Randi Rhodes, where are you?!

Grandpa Eddie said...

Sue - The Rethuglicans think all the media is liberal, therefore they think they always watch liberal news media.

Grandpa Eddie said...

Shea - Whatever did happen to Randi Rhodes?

Randi Rhodes left Air America and landed a gig at Phoenix-based Nova M radio. Sadly, they went out of business, the owner attempted suicide, and RR and her fans are left high and dry. I know she'll be back. Unfortunately it reinforces this terrible curse of progressive talk radio... we can control the internet, but for some reason we can't keep a national progressive radio presence on the air!
