They're Not Neo-Cons, They're Con Men

It happened with the rise of Rush Limbaugh and the hundreds of Limbaugh drones on local talk radio stations across the country. They are loud, they are mean, and they never cease. They even go on at night; some of the most outrageous lunatics you've ever heard are on your local radio dials well into the wee hours. And they are given national platforms for their endless, paranoid propaganda.

Often they just spew outright lies. Other times they will commit logical fallacies - grossly mischaracterizing their opponents' positions, then arguing against those mischaracterizations (a favorite tactic of the Bush campaign's attack machine against John Kerry). Usually they will offer little analysis, just condemnation and hatred for anyone who doesn't share their views.

They villify anyone who disagrees with them. They attack our morality, our humanity. Then they accuse us of doing that to them.
