Mother Jones outs Groundswell...WE can turn the tables!


Anti-Obama noise from Tea Partied right wingers is getting more and more outrageous. The topic of the conversation could be the price of tea in China and –out of nowhere- they manage to completely change the subject  with wild distortions  and outright lies about President Obama's  historical achievements!?!?!

If you’ve noticed that the noise from Tea Partied congressional lawmakers(???), right winged mainstream pundits,  FOXifiers, and beyond right wing radio spinners, is getting more and more scripted, corrupt, irrational and insane – here’s the reason why…

...Motherjones.com broke a hair-raising but excellent expose on a secret organization with “access to the top leaders of the GOP” dubbed Groundswell. 
“Members of the group – including “aides to congressional Republicans - cook up battle plans for their ongoing fights against the Obama administration, congressional Democrats, progressive outfits and ‘clueless’ GOP congressional leaders.”
Groundswell’s core members include “prominent conservatives in Washington – including Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and journalists from Breitbart News and the Washington Examiner. (Read mediamatters.org link below entitled Groundswell, Ginni Thomas, and Continued Conflicts of Interest for Justice Clarence Thomas)
Other individuals attending Groundswell meetings are former GOP Rep. Allen West, birther Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy, retired general and Christian fundamentalist Jerry Boykin of the Family Research Council, Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch, former UN ambassador John Bolton, and Max Pappas top aide to Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas). (truth-out.org)
Groundswell, also, “brought on board a number of reliably conservative journalists who apparently will help craft anti-Obama themes, and talking points and distribute them across an assortment of social media platforms.” (truth-out.org)
The coalition “convenes weekly in the offices of Judicial Watch, the conservative legal watchdog group."  
A document obtained by Mother Jones entitled Notes from March 27, 2013 contained a list of “Action Items which included Immigration, Obamacare, Guns, National Security, elections, Perez Nomination, Boy Scouts, Benghazi, New Idea: State Outreach, RNC Autopsy and Rage Against the Media” (truth-out.org)
A secret audio tape of one of their weekly meetings shows that “prominent members of the group pressed House Speaker John Boehner and Representative Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) the chair of the House oversight committee; to expand the Benghazi investigation and make this supposed scandal a top-priority for congressional Republicans. (The tape is posted in the motherjones link below entitled Groundswell: A Secret Tape Reveals How It lobbied Boehner and Issa on Benghazi)

Here's how WE we can turn the tables...
Expose their secret!
