Bush has a stained blue dress!!
I am positive MoPaul or some of you creative characters around here could find a photo of a hysterical, mourning, Middle Eastern mother in a blue garment cradling her recently de-legged son on her lap.

3. No, of course it wouldn't be funny, but
it sure would be effective. With the sheep, you gotta whack 'em upside the head with the equivalent of a 2x4 to get their attention.

2. That's creepy, but it would certainly be effective.
The more I think about it, you really have a good point there. I'm just kind of squeamish about exploiting other people's pain in order to trash bush. Of course, bush doesn't have that problem, does he?

:thumbsup:

4. I know, not funny at all, but could "catapult" the propaganda without
the standard 3 repititions. Could see the contrast: Big Dog's impeachment over a stained blue dress and then the Chimp wading in the blood of thousands.

7. RIGHT! Use EVERYTHING they give you to speak truth.
They HATE that.

Even when it is the worst lying shit about you, haul out a little creativity, start from their point and then MOVE to what you really want to talk about, more facts, the truth.

What they say/do should be like a trigger for you to get to your rhetorical goal as quickly as possible, brief and factual.

10. It certainly would make people think.
Maybe it could be done without satire, a simple straightforward, "Which blue dress stain would you prefer?"

6. Many people, including children, are dead because of his CHOICE.
He chose war when it was un-necessary and many other much better things could have happened if he had WANTED those. He didn't. He WANTED war. He is directly responsible for thousands of deaths that did not have to happen for whatever he claims its purpose is.

Bush Kills.

8. P.S. It's called squirrel killing in debate.
What I like about it is that you start with WHATEVER they give you, and quickly connect it to something you want to talk about, proactively, repeat, repeat, repeat, so everytime they give their message you connect it (literally and concretely - i.e. empirical, grassroot's data) to YOUR message.

This is also one of Rove's tactics. Do as you would be done by Rove.

An Iraqi Pieta would be very nice. We could try to get people to help us buy a billboard with such an EFFECTIVE image of what War is.

Innocent Iraqi Dead are Jesus in (Honest) Christianity.

9. The Pieta: in conservative Christianity that Innocent Suffering = Jesus
Edited on Sat Jun-25-05 09:50 AM by patrice
. . . in honest Christianity, that is.

So I guess that makes Iraq another CRUCIFIXION.

Bush is Herrod.

Corporate America = High Priests
