What wingnut slogan makes you want to blow chow?

"let freedom reign"

supposedly what dubya scribbled on a note to conde when Saddam was captured because he is too stupid to know that the actual phrase is "let freedom ring"

freedom gripped the country shortly thereafter

:eyes:

he probably spelled it riegn...I really couldn't tell from the photo of the note...

To me, that is a very fascist attitude (disguised as patriotism) and it pisses me off! The whole point of a Democracy is that people don't have to "love" everything their country does and they have the right to ask questions and make changes.

:thumbsup:

because the one I cannot tolerate from them is "the party of the big tent"

'they hate us for our freedoms'

Today that one pisses me off the most. On other days there are other stupid slogans that make me hurl. Yesterday's hurling slogan was "remember 9-11."

:argh:

....someone who thinks Ted Kennedy lacks integrity.

(Hat tip to an old Simpsons episode.)

And, as close second :

"All we have to fear is fear itself..."

is an FDR quote.

Wingnuts enjoy and embrace fear.

...seems to have had a poor opinion of his countrymen.His sentiment suggests that he felt his listeners were cowardly dullards who couldn't face up to the threat of Japanese militarism.

Contrast his ponderous inanity with Chuchill's 1940 speech to the people of beleagured and isolated Britain staring across at all conquering fascism:

"...You ask what is our policy? I will say it is to wage war, by land sea and air with all the might and the strength God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable catalogue of human crime..."

Don't want to cast aspersions on a great President, but that sound bite of his was pretty limp material.

In 1933. It was about the Depression - not Pearl Harbor.

... so sorry. You are quite right. The quote was used by my local paper as an example of US moral indifference/wavering in an article about WW2. I repeated it without checking. I humbly beg readers pardon.

Fear is why we're in Iraq right now. The cowardly dullard in the White House (who won't show his face but from behind bulletproof glass) prefers to drop bombs from 20K feet rather than use diplomacy, which requires true courage.

No, this is my country, and I will not get over it. I intend to be as big an irritant as I can be over the next four miserable years.

I'll get over it (maybe) when we finally throw these criminal right-wing bastards out on their ears, and keep them as far away from power as possible.

Until then, I'll be the sand in the Vaseline.

Would you rather fight them over there, or over here?

Slogans are nothing but political phrases used in place of actual thought. Something for the mindless troglodytes who have nothing to say on their own to parrot.

Wish I had a link, saw some sod with this T-shirt in support of nationalistic B.S.

of my neighbors like a photo op. And an excuse for a war they wanted to launch for 12 years. And cover to cram all that crap into the Patriot Act.

WTF does that mean anyways??

...of pride is one of those oxymoronic statements like Democratic Republic of North Korea.

...'everything changed on 9/11.' :thumbsdown:

Lameass attempt to invoke a national tragedy in order to rationalize and justify BFEE criminal behavior.

I expect to see one before the day is out. It will at least salvage the day in some fashion.

How else can we fight all these goddamn wars?
