Lies, Damn Lies!

The right-wing attack machine, pretending to represent the GOP, is in high gear, and if I were a Republican, or even a conservative, I would be very embarrassed.

In recent weeks, they've accused President Obama of being a socialist and a fascist, as if that were simultaneously possible; they've spread the rumor that he was born in Kenya and shouldn't be allowed to sit in the White House; they've said that Mr. Obama wants to create "death panels" to decide whether elderly Americans should receive health care; and they've accused him of trying to indoctrinate our nation's schoolchildren by merely addressing and encouraging them on their first day of the school year. One phony-baloney minister this week even wished publicly that Mr. Obama be stricken with brain cancer and die.

Who are these liars and fearmongers? We all know the answer to that question. We know who they are, because they no longer wear sheets to protect their identities. They are the haters. And they hate everyone who doesn't look or pray like they do.

Come on, you members of the Republican party... come on, you legitimate conservatives! Speak up about these jerks! Don't let them represent you with their lies. As the loyal opposition, you - and our country - have too much to lose!
