If you "Support the President" or "Support the Troops"....?
Does that now mean you support the lies that got us into this mess. SInce the press is now telling us that everyone knew the President was lying, that must mean they also support the lies? Is that a logical conclusion?

1. I support the president...
... being clapped in irons and tried for treason.

All his sinister cronies, too.

They have set about dismantling America, trashing virtially every aspect of our country, all in the interest of lining their own pockets.

I'd love to see every one of them swinging from a noose for their crimes.

2. yes, and supporters knew in their heart it was a pretext
how they rationalize that it "protects us" & our right to protest or shop or whatever i don't get.

4. it's our "way of life" stupid!
Edited on Fri Jun-17-05 01:39 PM by jokerman93
We are supporting the protection of our way of life - which, of course, is unconscionably corrupt, violent and toxic, and consists of nothing more substantive than continuous conspicuous over-consumption of largely superfluous corporate products and rapidly diminishing resources and a lemming race to the cliff at the end of the run.

So, wave that goddamn plastic flag boys! Harder! Faster! Turn up the volume! Rev those engines! Wave those stupid little tattered flags! Support the troops! Support the president! Support FOX news! Support Pharma! Support Carlyle and Bechtel and Halliburton! Support Jeezeuz Keeerist and gawd almighty on the 700 club! Support your right to remain a dumb, ignorant murkin slug sucking off the narcotic tit of Fox News and the criminal corporate media!

gawd bless murka!

:evilgrin:

There. I feel better now. Don't you?

3. Yup, I think that is a good line of Counter-Spin to work on.
They need to wake up to that fact.

6. No Kentuck suportng the troops does not mean
suporting the insanity

What is more, hammering on the troops or military families will just push them to the other side... and make them far less likely for them to listen to you

Separate the troops from this...

As to the president, I suport the Presidency as an institution, but this man is NOT a president, but a Dictator or a New King.
