1. Keep talking about it.. Everywhere. All the time. My BIL told me last

night that there was no point in watching the Daily Show because there was nothing going on in the news. I asked about the DSM.. and he said, "What"?

Of course, he's a Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Michael Savage kinda guy, so I was not surprised that they hadn't brough it up.

3. media and public
Keep contacting the media, keep it in the public eye, those freeway signs that people did during the election is a great idea.

4. Something like impeachment requires a huge mobilization
of political and public will

1. I don't see either of those in place now

2. I don't see anything happening that will make them stronger

3. I don't see the infrastructure in place to make them happen


Waiting for the Senate "protocols" seems to me to be too little too late. The momentum is dead or dying.

5. Repubs are expert at ignoring things into oblivion. Never give up!
DeLay is still lurking about; can't let the same sort of thing happen to the Minutes.

A good point is that they simply ignoring it. Say it, put it in their faces that they're ignoring it and the country has a right to know. Soldiers are still dying; lives not yet lost deserve to be saved if they lied us into Iraq. Support our troops.

Plus, WHY did they lie us into Iraq? What do they stand to gain? What don't they want us to realize about WHY we're in Iraq? What are they hiding?

Hammer hammer hammer.

6. the issue needs to find additional avenues of interest
Edited on Tue Jun-21-05 11:52 PM by leftofthedial
find all the paths where this leads

find all the angles of the story

find all the attendant outrages and consequences

link any new bad news for the bushturd back to this "original" lie

then tie each of those items back to bush the liar

we need a daily and weekly spin factory
