In case you might favor a particular candidate, it is our mission to bombard you 24/7 with propaganda that they allegedly support policies that will bring down our nation because they allegedly hate America and are trying to allegedly collapse it from within. ---

Obama has joined ISIS, and is leading a top secret mission to bring weaponized Ebola and herpes to the US, which he will then force us all to be exposed to through mandatory immunizations under Obamacare! ---

ISIS terrorists could just hang around in Africa for a while until they caught Ebola, then fly to the US, and then run around to get all sweaty, and then intentionally drip sweat onto surfaces like doorknobs! Or mosquitos could transmit it to us! Or it must be airborne, because how else did a nurse catch it? The government simultaneously can’t do anything properly and is also engaged in a conspiracy to hide the real danger from foreigners…er, I mean Ebola. A coworker subjected me to this line of “thought” recently. Smalltalk in Dallas is weirder than usual. ---
