WOW! FAUX News shill saying leaked Dem plan (from Reid) is horrendous
and that it uses military personnel for campaign purposes and that Republicans would never use the troops as fodder and as a way to scare Americans.

1. That was Ken Mehlman's talking point on the Situation Room yesterday
They're going to be playing this one hard... "Democrats are exploiting the troops for political purposes."

Unbelievably hypocritical.

2. General rule of thumb in propaganda wars: Imagine Mehlman
Edited on Tue Mar-21-06 09:34 AM by izzybeans
is speaking into his mirror in the morning. His words are a reflection of his own position. It's an attempt to divert attention from the self and place it on the other.

Change the words they to we and you to me. Blue to red. Dem to rep. etc.

Whenver the first words out of a electioneering robot's mouth reference the opponent and not their own position-your looking at an conscious attempt at projection. Make your authentic face become your opponents and get your supporters to buy into it; you can pick their pockets all day long.

6. Would exploiting be running them as candidates? Seems that
most veterans running this time aren't on the RePug ticket.

8. The plan was apparently referring to meeting with troops and
having them smile and being sure there are flags around and such.


Same stuff the Repukes use.

3. They always accuse us of what they do. It's ridiculous already.

11. You should include the one
where they photoshopped in more troops because they didn't have enough . . .

13. It's a larger version of that third one. I forgot about that.
What haven't these people photoshopped. It's the photoshopped residency.

4. Well if the Fox guy said it, then it has to be true
Thats it. Dems are evil, no good people who should never ever have any positions of power again. The major problem is that too damn many people belive that.

7. Oh no? Then why do they keep referring to Ollie as "Colonel" North?
The way they parade Ollie North around, you'd think he was the most brilliant military strategist since Patton and MacArthur.

10. Fox would say a cure for cancer is horrendous
The entire war is using troops as fodder and as a way to scare Americans.
