The blogosphere nails a California Republican
I really don't think the Republican party gets it. There are now tens of thousands of people watching every move they make and none of us have anything approaching a great love for the violent hate filled agenda of the radical right wing anti-America Republican party. So the race in the CA-50 is looking bad for the GOP right now. Latest polling is suggesting 45% for Busby. So one of the Republicans in the race decided he's going to put up some pictures on his website of a "peaceful" Iraq. The problem is that he tries to pass off a picture of Istanbul as Iraq. Now this could easily fool your average brain-dead Republican drone, but everyone else has a bit more of a grasp on reality and we have quite a few world travelers in our midst.
Anyway the Republicans blamed it on the Webmaster saying there must have been some mix up. So they put up a new picture of Baghdad to prove how peaceful it was. Which is fine, but the picture is of the heavily militarized Green Zone in Iraq. Now you have to wonder if the guy went out of the Green Zone and if he really has any grasp of what the environment is like in Iraq. Republicans are natural born liars, but after a certain point it just goes so far beyond the realm of acceptable to ignore their behavior that you have ask yourself can these guys be trusted to lead? The only answer is absolutely not.
I'm beginning to wonder how good Busby is actually doing. If the Republicans are desperate to be trotting out these kinds of lies this far out in the race, their internal polling must be showing them in a terrible situation coming down the pipe. Many more of these kinds of activities and I'm going to have to reconsider my original analysis of the race. If you can help out Francine please do.
It's amazing how fast it went from the Blog world to the Traditional Media. Perhaps there are changes happening behind the scenes.
