During Desert Shield, and Desert Storm, one of the key figures in Iraq "winning the war" was Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf. al-Sahhaf was known to many as "Baghdad Bob". Bob was best known for his propaganda on how the Hussain regime was "driving the infidels" out of the country. It was designed as a method of spinning what was actually happening to the regime by coalition forces. Bob was a loyal sort, and kept saying they were massively spilling the blood of infidels, all the while Marine Corps tanks were in the background.
when I read someone that reads this or that, watches an interview on CNN, and then they decry that they have a "sinking feeling", I have to wonder if there were Iraqis that "had that sinking feeling" because of the propaganda that Bob was spewing.
Because it is the same concept. The media machine is attempting to paint this picture that resistance is futile.
And in reading some of the posts, aside from the batshit crazy like Domcintosh or Zenmaster, the media onslaught is working on making people doubt themselves. And apparently, their spin campaign is working on some people. And that is sad to see.
If we lose this, we lose this because of propaganda, and not because of substance. They are attempting to make people stay at home because they want you to think that you can't win. If this was truly over, Trump would not be getting 23 3/4 hours per day in the news cycle.
My local fish wrap has only missed one day in the last great while posting a negative Trump story above the fold.
Anyone that gets a bad feeling from all of this needs to not bow to the media pressure. Ole Bob is still as full of shit today as he was in the 90's. He's just apparently a trend setter and role model for the current crop of corrupt media.

If we lose this, it is because too many people actually believe what they see or read in the big propaganda machine.

OK, just stow the conspiracy nonsense, please. I'm certain that you can find plenty of tinfoil-wrapped whack jobs on the internet who will eat this stuff up, but it's unwelcome here.

And there are democrats in there who think we seriously believe that! LOL

I am having a growing resentment for "Never-Trumpers." I'm talking about conservative people who traditionally vote Republican but, for whatever so called principled reason, will abstain from voting at all. I'm really irritated with them.

How many of these die-hard "never Trump" conservative people do you think really exist?

Michael Moore the past 15 years: The system is corrupt and fraught with inequality that only benefits the rich and politically connected. We need to implement change!

Michael Moore in 2016: We need to elect a President who is rich, politically connected, and has been a part of the system I've been railing against for the past 30 years!

The only thing that windbag has been good for is giving me the chance to win my CUT a couple years ago by going on a fact-based diatribe over his 'Bowling for Columbine' crapheap.

It's just disheartening when one of your favorite conservative commentators (Ben Shapiro) is one. I do not get his logic.

Trump is knocking it out of the park tonight with his speech in Geneva, Ohio. 15,000 in attendance at this rally and more than 24,000 viewing now on You Tube.

Ben Shapiro is not nearly as smart as I thought. Sure book sense and the ability to argue is great but if he cannot support Trump over someone as awful as Hillary he is borderline fucking retarded in my book. Fuck Shapiro.

He can't stand her either, but this abstaining is indefensible. I'm pissed at him!

^^^^ And that is true of all the Never Trumpers. They all put on airs of superiority--they are so smart-- they are so moral-- and the truth is that they are Hillary stooges. They will be getting emails. Lots and lots of emails on Nov.9.

If we lose this, it is because too many people actually believe what they see or read in the big propaganda machine.

The "media" has no power. The only power they have is what we grant them. When they spew their propaganda, if we respond the way they want-- then, and only then, do they have power over us. The power we give them.

Ignore them. Pay no attention to what they say, it will overwhelmingly consist of lies intended to discourage and dishearten you. Think of Tokyo Rose broadcasting to the GIs in the Pacific. Or, yes, Baghdad Bob. CNN, FOX, NBC, etc.-- they are cheap, phony acts on the level of "Our glorious troops are driving the Infidels!" "Oh, GI, why do you want to die?"

Wolf Blitzer, Megan Kelly, Matt Laurer-- they are liars, phonies. Not worth your attention. Fuck 'em.

Just witnessed two ladies I have known for years, one in her 40s and one in her 50s, and I would most certainly classify them as fairly liberal just completely eviserate 2 liberal females in their early 30s on why voting Trump is the way to go as opposed to Hillary.
Never would I have imagined these ladies pushing for Trump the way they were.

This election is unlike any other I would wager to say. I sure hope it knocks this country back on track.

Just watched megyn kelly basically bed down michael moore on FOX news. She made her left turn more solid. Too bad he wont interview with Sean Hannity!
