EDIT: Also, Rep. Michele Bachmann -- you know, the one calling for another round of McCarthyism -- claims what she said was "misread" and that she didn't say that Obama's views are anti-American.
GOD. It's like half the Republican party has been in CRYOGENIC SUSPENSION since the invention of videotape. Why in hell do they keep thinking they can get away with BLATANT ON-CAMERA LIES?
Because they can, and have, and still do. Because they know that their base is mired in a lack of education and a surfeit of bias confirmation. If we weren't letting them get away with it, there wouldn't be a single Republican in office.
