Paraphrasing Goebbels, it’s just more “Give the suckers the lies they want to hear. And then give them more.” And they still gobble it up. Even if a few of ’em do know what happened to Goebbels and his family they still gobble it up and drool for more crap to fill their tiny, little wooden heads. Cartoons like this are unfortunately all too necessary even so.
The republicans know that they can get the effect they want without the consequences with the strategy of “lie now, apologize later.” They lie now knowing they will apologize later.
Anderson gives the so-called right-wing media far too much credit in the food/BS metaphor. Let’s face it—the right-wing would NEVER offer a juicy beefsteak to a GOP Leadershit supporter. Ever since what’s-his-name tossed his hat into the ring in 2015, the GOP Leadershit & what’s-his-name not only have served their benighted supporters runny manure & lipstick, but also left them screaming for more! That constant entrée was and is, to what passes for their minds, always à point.
Republicans have to do everything they can to confuse the issues, or they will cease to exist. When people are given a choice of two statements on issues that actually affect their everyday life, one that describes the Republican position and the other the Democrat’s, the Democratic position is chosen by about 80% of Democrats and Independents. No surprise there. The weird part is that just OVER half of Republicans also choose Democrat positions, unless they are told which position is supported by each party. Then they fall into line and choose the Republican option- 78% of the time. So, it is entirely reasonable for Republicans to lie a lot. The people running the Republican party are in that half of the Republicans who actually believe in Republican positions, or more likely the ones who need the money from the 1% to run their campaigns. They are roughly 25% of the voting public. They have no chance of ever winning a national election unless they keep as many people as possible from voting and keep the rest of them confused enough to vote against their own best interests.

Is there ANY issue that Republicans* do not LIE about?

Long time GOP mantra … Lying in the pursuit of power of power is not a vice!

I know that to a considerable extent this is true, but I really do prefer cartoons that enlighten me at least a little bit. One thumb part way down.

Side by side with the DemocRats….it is not even close. The Dem’s lie more often with the purpose to sway Americans to their madness!
