How low can Obama and his news media partners go?

Thomas Lifson writes in  American Thinker;  The Race to Define Ryan  "The question ahead for the Romney-Ryan ticket, and for America, is: can we have a an intelligent discussion on the budget, or will media-generated images, thoughts, and emotions (pushing  granny off a cliff being the most notorious) carry the day. Romney and Ryan are betting on the public thinking over the stakes, listening, and m aking an informed decision. The Obama camp and their media allies are betting on the ability to sway people with emotions, principally fear and loathing."

I hate to post Mr.Terrell's cartoons because it just encourages the guy, but I just can't help it.

Obama Lies, Claims Romney-Ryan Will Raise Your Taxes   "So suddenly the greatest tax-hiker in American presidential history, Barack Obama, is posing as a tax-cutter, and trying to position tax-cutters Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan as tax-hikers.

Here Come The Ryan Attacks: Old Media It was a safe prediction that I made earlier this week that the Activist Old Media would work to destroy Mitt Romney's choice for vice president. The attacks began even before the early morning announcement of Paul Ryan."

Big Three Networks Ignore Lie-Filled Obama Ad Portraying Romney as Murderer  "For two straight days, now ABC, CBS, and NBC have not bothered to mention the roiling controversy over the lie-filled ad that Obama's Super PAC put out intimating that Mitt Romney killed a steel worker's wife. The ad is being called the nastiest, most misleading ad of this election cycle by newspapers, talk radio and even the cable news stations -- CNN and MSNBC both, yet -- but thus far the big three are ignoring the whole story."

In a separate TW Post: What Ryan Actually Says About Medicare  The far left has already started a campaign to misinform the public about Paul Ryan's views about Medicare and how he supposedly wants to destroy the program."

NRO; The Very Predictable Playbook Against Paul Ryan  "In the national media narrative – perhaps best illustrated by the shorthand of Jay Leno’s monologue, which presumes that the audience has the barest-bone familiarity with national figures – every Republican figure is reduced to one of three things: Old, stupid, or evil.  
George H.W. Bush: Old. Dan Quayle: Stupid. Newt Gingrich: Evil. Pat Buchanan: Evil. Bob Dole: Old. George W. Bush: Stupid. Dick Cheney: Old and evil. John McCain: Old. Sarah Palin: Stupid."
