In an article this morning about Bush's Nat'l Guard service, page A2, here's the accompanying photo:
Democrat Says He Helped Bush Into Guard to Score Points
At Ellington Field, a Texas Air National Guard base in 1968, George W. Bush, left, and father George H.W. Bush. (Texas National Guard Via AP)
Then she writes
It has been said that in the worst of times, Kissinger gave orders to the military not to obey Nixon if he ordered a first strike. What if Bush were to fall off the wagon? Then what? Has America really faced the fact that we have an alcoholic as our president?
And then she writes
Or how about Dead Texans for Truth, highlighting those who served in Vietnam instead of the privileged draft-dodging president,
Not mean enough? My God, she says dems are not mean enough and then proceeds to spew the some of meanest most slanderous and baseless claims I've heard since.... well since reading what John Edwards said yesterday. Draft doging? She must be thinking about Clinton. Bush was in the National Guard. I bet draft doging never once passed her lips during Clitons terms. Every time I read a democrats column it is driven home even more to me. They are not our opponents, they are our enemies.
Big Lie theory.
A big lie has to be repeated by as many locations as possible to be bootstrapped to validity.
A lying 527 is reported in the local media, which is picked up by 60 minutes as a story on the 527's vituousness, which is then reported by CNN as a product of CBS news' news division, which is then picked up by the NYT as a story covered by CBS and CNN. Then the newspapers run with the NYT story saying it is a crisis. Meanwhile it is a complet lie.
(ala the kitty kelly abortion story which has been fished around the internet for years)
With regards to Cheney, I'd like to see them take this and run with it.
Take the podium away, put out a mike, and a stool.
Out comes the Veep, with a glass of adult beverage in his hand (a la Ron White), reaches for the mike, and says...
"Susan Estrich says I drink too much. I saw her on Fox. The face and voice of the opposition. Lord, I don't think I drink ENOUGH..."
Are you serious??? 11 points is nothing after a Convention. I hope the Republicans don't just think the media and the Dems are going to roll over after the CNN poll. They are going to be more vicious, there are going to be more negative stories, there are going to be lies, there are going to be dead people going to polls, ballot stuffing, multiple computer votes.
This is war and you don't fight a war with no weapons. Let the 527's do Bush's dirty work. If it is the truth then start letting people know about it. Rove knows this is war and he treated 2000 as a war. The only thing is he put down his arms the last week of the 2000 campaign. Rove underestimated the Democrat vote fraud machine.
Do you know how much money the Dems have in 527's? Do you knwo how much Kerry put into the swing state ads this week? We cannot relax now and we have to fight fire with fire.
Check out this gallup.com page for a chart of Post-Convention Increases in Support, 1964-2004 -- It shows that Kerry is the only one ever to get a "negative bounce" after his convention.
I don't like the tone of those ads. I don't think they do anything to help our cause. They are ripe with the type of material to cause a media feeding frenzy of negative coverage. If that group is truly hoping to help Bush, they are very stupid.
next to the word Mean, in the dictionary, is a picture of George Mitchell.
Do you know what the name of that group is?
"in the third person all the time, like Bob Dole or 'Jimmy'"
and Herschel Walker
"Does the blogspirator talk about himself in the third person all the time, like Bob Dole or 'Jimmy' from that episode of seinfeld???"
He finds it to be an entertaining literary device. Er, I do. :)
