Personally, I find value in letting people lie. It tells me who I can't trust and thus shouldn't be voting for.

Sadly, that is not the majority of the base populous.

Additionally, is there not a slippery slope being established with campaign ad distortion from the facts?

Obviously it's just my opinion and I don't have a crystal ball, guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one. Usually it's DakotaT I can't find common ground with, stop impersonating him!

Do you really want me shredding through the endorsed campaign messages of Obama and Romney to validate the they have plenty of attack ads that use very loose facts?

Or in Wisconsin, the race between say Thompson and Baldwin?

Or Duffy and Krietlow?

I have been flooded with them... and that end tag line of endorsement is present in most.

Sure, for example, the NRA's ad's are out there.. but the majority of the ads I have been subjected to have been endorsed by the candidate themselves.

And I am sick of it.. that is an understatement endorsed by me.

Democrats did it to perfection the last almost 2 years, with the Student Loan rates, Soldiers pay, unemployed people and middle class. They attached something to a bill so Republicans would not vote on or pass a bill. So they could run to the media and scream. Republicans hate students, soldiers, unemployeed, women what ever.

What are the odds that shortly, all the Bush cuts get extended again now that the election is over? That was the entire, raise the tax on the rich plan. Democrats wanted to renew all bush cuts except the rich, republicans wanted to extend them all. Yet obama and the democrats were able to convince millions of people, that republicans wanted to raise their taxes.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
