"What others are saying..."
Here are a couple of excerpts from the "What Others Are Saying..." page of James Kroeger's website:

"The Republican Nemesis" concisely identifies what Democratic candidates have to do to defeat the GOP slander machine. Kroeger provides a brilliant analysis of how and why these lying, hypocrites in the GOP have been able to cynically manipulate the emotions of voters and deceive them into believing that no Democrat can be trusted.

Next year, if they heed Kroeger's advice, Democrats in every Congressional district can inspire Democratic voters, win to our side most of the swing voters, and effectively attack their Rovian opponents. In the meantime, if they heed Kroeger's advice, every Democrat and progressive who appears on television in the coming weeks and months will be able to psychologically and emotionally connect with the American people and open their eyes to the vile hypocrisy of the GOP.

James Kroegers' editorial, "The Republican Nemesis" MUST BE READ, AND MUST BE E-MAILED TO EVERY DEMOCRAT IN CONGRESS AND EVERY DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE. I implore everyone to e-mail "The Republican Nemesis" to everyone they know and to progressive blogs, but especially to their Democratic senators and congressmen. I have, and starting tomorrow I'm going to e-mail a copy to every Democrat in Congress and to Howard Dean at the DNC.

I just read your article and I think it is brilliant. It articulates much of what I've been thinking but couldn't put together. I'm a Psychologist, so I'm always interested in how Psychology is used to influence people. I only wish the Democrats would hire someone(s) with this kind of insight to fight back against the Republicans who are politically savage and brilliant and don't seem to be bothered at all by that pesky thing called conscience.

Mr. Kroeger, Thank you for this article. I come from an Advertising background and I agree with every point you raised. The Republicans are very good at this game. I spent all of last year from March until October working tirelessly for the Kerry campaign. There were so many times I screamed out loud at the decisions that campaign made. They didn't quite grasp that they were playing the "game" all wrong.

Josie Nericcio, email


The whole page is filled with these endorsements. It's quite a read.

6. Lets call this what it really is - MIND CONTROL - par excellence
by the Republicans. I read the entire article. I'm sending it to my Republican friends to highlight how they were MIND CONTROLLED.

8. I have tried to figure out where these people are coming from
for years. Remember during the 2000 campaign where the Repugs made a subliminal message commercial. RATS, for Democrats.They got caught, but was searching and ran across this site Brainwashing 101 taught in college and have a film. I have not checked it out, but might be interesting or just plain silly.
