this is from the AP and appears in several news sources besides Fox. it gives an interesting "heads up" on what kind of smears to expect in the next few weeks.

Among the claims:

_ A 6-3 liberal majority Supreme Court that results in rulings like one making gay marriage the law of the land and another forcing the Boy Scouts to "hire homosexual scoutmasters and allow them to sleep in tents with young boys." (In the imagined scenario, The Boy Scouts choose to disband rather than obey).

_ A series of domestic and international disasters based on Obama's "reluctance to send troops overseas." That includes terrorist attacks on U.S. soil that kill hundreds, Russia occupying the Baltic states and Eastern European countries including Poland and the Czech Republic, and al-Qaida overwhelming Iraq.

_ Nationalized health care with long lines for surgery and no access to hospitals for people over 80.

The goal was to "articulate the big picture," said Carrie Gordon Earll, senior director of public policy for Focus on the Family Action. "If it is a doomsday picture, then it's a realistic picture," she said.

Bea, regardless of where it comes from, we're there.


And both conservatives and liberals have played a part in it.

A much happier life? Please qualify this statement. That's like saying, "some Republican's would be happy to watch children starve to death as long as they didn't have to pay more in taxes.

And the next question is why do so many not seem to care?
