Watch: Republicans David Frum and Joe Scarborough Explain How Republican Voters Have Been Fleeced, Exploited and Lied To by The Conservative Media Machine

 

 

(The Wrap) Newsweek columnist David Frum called Republican leaders "cowards" and said the right-wing base has been lied to by a "conservative entertainment complex."

Frum, a conservative who served as a speechwriter for President George W. Bush, made his remarks Friday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." He added that the GOP had been overrun by fear-mongers.

"The problem with Republican leaders is that they're cowards," Frum said, adding that the party's base of donors "went apocalyptic" in the last four years.
"Republicans have been fleeced and exploited and lied to by a conservative entertainment complex," he said.
"Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough pressed him to "name names," which Frum skirted around, but he said there were "too many."
Frum said he interviewed protesters at Tea Party rallies and found that a majority was convinced that taxes increased and that the federal government spent more than $1 trillion on welfare each year. Both claims are false.
"The followers, the donors and the activists are so mistaken about the nature of the problems the country faces," Frum said.

Greg Jones Note: Absolutely PATHETIC the way right-wing media like Fox News, Limbaugh and the like have dedicated themselves to literally deceiving their followers by instilling lie after lie...and even more pathetic that the deceived followers don't even realize that they're out there repeating absolute untruths. From lies like ObamaCare includes "Death Panels" to Obama wants to take away our "religious freedoms" to "Obama is Pro-Abortion" (which of course, he is not), the list of constantly repeated lies sadly exemplifies just how ill-informed many followers on the Right are. Even sadder is their lack of desire to learn the Truth.
