To Dems: Frame GOP fearmongers with their own "Bullshit"

[SmileMaker]

I sent this message to the Dems yesterday. I've changed it a bit and thought I'd give the idea its own thread to see if there was any interest in the strategy I suggested.

I was inspired by the appearance of the Princeton U. professor on Daily Show who wrote "On Bullshit" (about a kind of lie)

To Dems:

Framing Bush/911 using "On Bullshit"

This administration is a dangerous disgrace.

While you are all standing firm - I hope you will get REALLY serious about protecting us. So much has changed since 911 for "National Security"reasons - but, whose security is being protected? By giving in to these extremists, you will be handing more of our country over to a very cruel, fascist network. They must be stopped. I think we could frame them as a danger to our security by using a scandalous 911 story.

We should point out the "Bullshit" that is being peddled by using the philosophical frame from a tiny new book version of "On Bullshit" (about a type of lie) by a philosophy professor at Princeton University.

Here is a good story to explore -
Sibel Edmonds, who discovered evidence of espionage in FBI translations units, information about criminal/terrorist money laundering and embarrassing fiancial connections to high levels in the Bush Administration has been gagged by the DOJ for 'National Security' reasons.

This information might have been used to prevent our 911 tragedy, investigate it after the fact and prevent future ones - but the fact that National Security is used to keep information that enganders us a secret by covering up embarrassing information is frightening.

You, our Democratic representatives, are our only hope. We have the facts on our side and all that the cons have is huge piles of stinking Bullshit! Please, hold your noses and stand up to this fascist network
