When did the Left Realize they could sell ANY Lie, no matter how preposterous? 2003. I was there.

Do you think Saddam suddenly turned Boy Scout and got rid of them between 1998 and 2002 with no incentive to do so? Pretty much everyone thought he had them in the late 1990s.

Trump's JA was 46% on election day. Not much lower than Chimpy's was in 2012.

Iraq was crippled by two decades of war and sanctions. Are you still peddling the idea they had WMDs?

The British began selling the invasion of Iraq in 1997-98 via Operation Mass Appeal. Bibi's Clean Break Strategy demanded deposing Saddam Hussein beginning in 1994.

What incentive would Saddam have had to get rid of his WMD between 1998 and 2002?
Answer: None.
Fools believe he willingly destroyed them.

Saddam Hussein wanted to keep Iran out of Iraq. He had no WMDs... He didn't have any in 1998 either.

Exhibit A:
David Hogg, Greta Thuneberg, and AOC. What do they have in common? All are media creations without achievements, presented by the leftwing media as experts. But before them there was Barack 0bama. And in 2008, he was exactly like the other three. Zero resume, sketchy background. No criticism or questions allowed, or you were racist, sexist, fill in the blank.

Exhibit B:
The stolen 2020 election, the fake Mueller hearings, Hillary’s criminal actions preceding the 2016 election, the J6 circus For all four, the media demands you ignore your lying eyes and accept their account. No dispute or discussion allowed or you are pilloried, made an outcast, even charged with treason.


Question: WHEN did the media begin to think it could sell ANY story, no matter how preposterous, to the gullible left-center public? Answer: 2003. I was there when it was all hatched. I had a front row seat, though I didn’t know it then.

It was April, 2003, and I was at ground zero. I was trolling a brand new forum, created for angry Democrats by a plugged-in leftwing operative, and visited by bottom feeders and power brokers alike. One particular chatter received deferential treatment, and reported on the goings-on of DNC planners. He was an insider. On this April day, he reported having attended a power-broker meeting in a New York City apartment, where the 2004 presidential election strategy was revealed.

Recall George W Bush had just invaded Iraq a month earlier. America was with him. His job approval was 71%. But this group’s plan was to portray Bush as a bumbler in an unwinnable war. I remember telling them they were insane, that they couldn’t touch the hugely popular Bush with such a lie. They also decided to push the notion that WMD had never existed. Remember, at this time, the existence of WMD was widely agreed upon by both parties. In 1998 respected weapons inspector Scott Ritter was expelled from Iraq for apparently getting too warm. Prior to Bush’s invasion, Democrats didn’t want to appear soft on terrorism, so most went along with Bush’s plan of invasion. Hillary went so far as to say her team had independently verified WMD.

Fast forward to 2008, Democrats and their media were wildly successful in fulfilling their plans I overheard in 2003. They were right and I was wrong. They managed to crater Bush’s approval numbers for the 2004 election, but not enough to beat him, but by 2008 got them down to the 20s, and painted him as incompetent on the war. They sold the lie of WMD as fact so successfully, even Bush went along with it. This was the left’s Aha Moment. It showed them if they could push any lie long enough and hard enough through their media, the dimwitted public would buy it. Their success against Bush proved to them they could put up their ideal Marxist, completely whitewash his radical history, ostracize all critics as racist, and get away with it. They have been doing it ever since. But 2003 was when it started.

Current list of leftwing lies their media is peddling hard:

1. Most people are crazy about killing their babies in the womb.
2. Men can have babies.
3. Sea levels will rise 10 feet unless we spend billions of dollars
4. People hate their gasoline-powered cars.
5. AIDS and Monkeypox have nothing to do with gay sex.
6. Biden actually got 81 million votes despite not knowing where he is or how to dress himself.
7. 100% of Americans hate President Trump.
8. January 6 was actually about the takeover of the government and installation of a new one.
9. The most dangerous violent threat to America is the middle-aged white Christian male.
10. BLM and Antifa are non-violent patriots.
11. Men who imagine they are women are really women. Ditto women to men.

Dude you've been brainwashed into insanity. Your post is completely irrational.

Sure. Inspectors got kicked out of Iraq in 1998 because Saddam had nothing to hide.
Again, fools believe that.

Wow, that is hell-of-a stupid. There were no WMD's in Iraq. I mean where are they? You want to make the claim that they had them and yet we haven't uncovered them? Seriously, do you not think before you post? I remember hearing about a survey, something like 90% of NPR listeners knew there were no WMD's in Iraq, about that same percentage of FOX news viewers thought they were.

And then there is that whole stolen election bullshit. Look, I am going to break the news to you, not everyone is as dimwitted as you. No president, EVER, FAWKING EVER, was reelected with Trump's approval ratings. Hell, Carter's were higher and he lost in a landslide. I mean the whole stolen election claim is the very definition of STUPID. I know it is hard to understand that many people are not as stupid, don't have their head so far up their ass, don't spend all their time watching FOX news

The U.S. did find WMDs in Iraq. Sure they were merely old chemical weapons. But then again no one expected ICBMs in silos. Iraq was NOT supposed to possess those chemical weapons yet they did.

Every passing day proves I'm right. The latest? We're supposed to believe the Democrats outperformed every poll, but in the 2020 swing states only. Why wouldn't the pro-Democrat trend take place in all the states? It would if it were real. It wasn't real. But the media paints anybody who raises questions as conspiracy theorists who must be condemned.

What's so terribly fun is watching the weasel-ey little assholes on this board who reek of the stench of leftism but will not admit it!

It was during the 1988 Presidential campaign season, that I came to clearly understand how deceitful and manipulative the mainstream media had become.

The elder George Bush had secured the nomination, and attention was focused on who he might choose as his running mate. A number of candidates were mentioned, but a lot of press attention was given to a man described as a “Robert Redford lookalike”, and likened to John Kennedy.

As soon as Bush announced that that was who he had chosen, the press turned very viciously against Dan Quayle. For the next four years, the press, in unison, made every blatant effort to depict Quayle as unfavorably as they could, making him out to be immature, full, and unintelligent. The dishonesty was obvious, with rather blatant instances of selective editing and cherry-picking.
