The call has gone out to the party faithful and the useful idiots that the Word of the Day for the current campaign will be "lies." Whether they are actually lies or not is completely irrelevant. If you examine their explanations, they fall apart quite easily ("Obama isn't cutting Medicare benefits to seniors, just Medicare payments to providers." What the hell do they think Medicare benefits are?) No, it's enough that they just keep repeating "lies!" often and loudly.
There's no rational response to this approach. But as long as people keep trying to parse this shitstorm, they won't be discussing Obama's record. If a Republican president was running for re-election on the current economic statistics, every Democrat alive would be demanding he be drawn and quartered.
Watch what happens at their convention.
