Default Opponents of obamacare are racists and violent

The media and democrats are in cahoots to marginalize criticism of obamacare.

They say that Republican rhetoric has "caused" this. Meaning that people who are against obamacare are stupid goons, who can't think for themselves.

I will see your tactics, and raise you. See you in November MoFoes.

I'd wager many of these instances of right-wing hate are exaggerated, made up, or the work of provocateurs.

to caricature your opponent is one of the oldest and best tactics in psychological warfare and manipulation.

If the right can make the left look like communist pinko hippie drug-addicted fudge-packing ingrates, that is to their advantage.

If the left can make the right look like truther, birther, anti-UN, gun-toting racist KKK angry white male killers, that is to their advantage.

It's all a big game. Like playing the race card. It's a card. Cards are used in games.

I agree that such tactic is ages old. The liberals have the complicity of the dominant media to assist them in this charade.
