YES!!!! ABOUT TIME WE LET THE RETHUGS HAVE IT WITH BOTH BARRELS!!!

[backscatter712]

Excellent speech by Joe Biden!

I didn't catch all of it - I was phone-banking at my friendly local Obama HQ, but I did catch him just absolutely roasting Bush and McCain.

And that's exactly what we need - a vicious attack dog!

We cannot win if we pull a Kerry and try to be "better" than them. It doesn't work. The rethugs will undermine us and trash us every time, because we're fighting with one hand tied behind our backs.

We have to use everything we've got to defeat those criminal fucks.

Show no mercy, for we will receive none.

Show no pity, for we will get none.

Show no remorse, for they have none.

Do not pull punches, do not say "We're better than that." Hit the fucks below the belt. Smear them. Slime them. Kick them in the knees and blow out their ligaments. Make sure they can only identify their bodies by using dental records (metaphorically, of course, Agent Mike...)

Fight unfair - there's no such thing as a fair fight.

Do what it takes to win - our country cannot withstand four more years of those fascist assclowns.

GO GET 'EM, BIDEN!!!

1. I just wish they would stop prefacing every attack with an accolade for McCain

After all, McCain's wife is an ugly trollop who plasters make-up on with a trowel, and he's a nasty cunt.

5. YES! Stop praising his service. Attack his service.

Call him Reverse-Ace McCain. Ask him to explain why he flew an aircraft into a power line, and why he flew another aircraft into the water.

Ask if that story about the guard drawing a cross in the dirt at the Hanoi Hilton really happened.

Call him out for answering questions with a noun, a verb and "POW" and chastise him for dishonoring his fellow POWs and servicemembers by using his experience so frivolously.

2. AMEN! Did you catch Kerry's speech as well?

If you didn't, DEFINITELY go for it. He was on fire, absolutely destroyed McCain. Turned the "flip flop" meme right back at the Repugs, compared Candidate McCain with Senator McCain, and just plain tore him a new one.

3. I'm for everything except lying about them.

That is one distinction I think we need to make- I'm all for a fight-but we dont have to lie about them- all we have to do is tell the truth.

I think Joe knows that...

4. I agree, but we haven't needed to either.

Look at how much they've done just these last 8 years. That's enough material for several more campaigns to come!

6. True: we can use the true slime the GOP provides for us.

We don't need to create slime - the GOP's created the slime themselves - we just need to throw them in.

We just need to get the message out forcefully enough to smash through the right-wing media narrative!

7. The way they've done it tonight has been PERFECT.

Smash them hard, but also talk about why WE are better and what OUR plans are.
