"They can say anything they want." New Dem response to media

[Skidmore]

questions regarding R talking points and comments. I've heard it several times the past couple of days. I like it. It's the appropriate response. So the Rs say it. Doesn't mean it's true.

1. Yes, it's very good..cause they

do.."say anything they want".

[Skidmore]

3. This manner of responding also gets Dems out of the mode of sounding

defensive--as if they are having to explain everything in terms of the Rs framing of the argument.

2. After a while, it's the only way you CAN respond

to the unending interminable litany of lies that are put forth day after day, week after week, year after year...

4. say anything they want

and media parrots it as if its fact while ignoring the obvious realities. Its not like media cant say whats real. They just dont wanna piss off the Reicht.

5. Diane Feinstein says

she would have never voted for the war if she had known what she knows today........that they didn't have the PDB's of bushs to read........that she believed all the stories about imminent danger......

10. Ah yes

Yep, I clearly remember that day. Here in California, we were bombarding her office, E-mail, telegrams, petitions, message machines.. brought down her web-site due to overload..etc..etc..

Did she listen us US???? NO, she actually stood up in the Senate and made a speech, that she had to go by what her California supporters wanted. Oh yes, I remember. In a collective 'scream' we heard that here in California. I didn't believe then and I sure don't believe now that she even took a look at what she was voting on. She lost my vote.

6. About freakin' time. Two days in a row, is this a trend?

I hope. It's long overdue.

[Skidmore]

9. I hope so.

7. they need to add - 'that doesn't make it true'. eom

[Skidmore]

8. I did hear that appended yesterday. Durbin, I believe,

tossed it back to someone on CNN.

11. Ooo! I like that.

A lot. Yep, they can say anything they want, but it's not the truth and no matter how many times they spew their lies, it doesn't make it the truth.
