By Fox of course; regarding the Affordable Care Act:

(1,811 posts)because calling them "myths" and "misinformation" is way too weak, and exemplifies the kind of timidity that keeps us on the losing end. Yes, they are lies, monstrous, bald-faced, outrageous lies backed by zero facts and lacking even the patina of "truthiness". It's mind-numbing how they get away with it.

Goebbels lied every day comparing the Jews to rats and sub humans that should be eliminated.
Fox does the same thing only instead of Jews it's democrats , labor unions , liberals , poor people , and any one that does not
pledge total allegiance to Ayn Rand and the Corporate State . There end is to destroy America .

(198 posts)Call your representative out as I did through a letter to the editor. I asked in my letter (published last week in the Lexington Herald Leader) if they would publish the names of those that died from death panels. Find a way to bring your republican representative into the letter for example "could the paper publish the names of those that died from the death panels that representative X warned us about? Perhaps a skull and cross bone beside each obituary were death panels were used to decide the fate of deceased." If you have a republican representative this will certainly get his/her attention!

(262 posts)I don't know about you but, as a LIBERAL, I'm kinda sick and tired of Dems running away from the ACA. The law will exceed sign-ups and
will help millions more with healthcare or lack of it. Dems should get onboard and praise the law not shy away from it!! If they let FIX So-called news and other RIGHT-WING DING outfits like the Koch's, spew the lies without some kind of rebuttal, we're sunk come November!! I sure don't like the idea of "Turtlehead" McConnel taking charge in the Senate. So, my advice to Dems stand up for the law and tell people the good things like keeping your kids on your policy up to the age of 26, or tell people that there are no more limitations of the money the insurance companies must pay, or even the good part about how the insurance companies MUST cover you even with a pre-existing condition!! We need a good spokesman like Jimmy Falon or how about Morgan Freeman. Come on Dems let's don't blow this one!!!
