Folks a suggestion

This is from a page used by those who are betraying this country. They never start with naming a specific person, they instead zero in on all Democrats, Liberals, Progressives and anyone not a Neo-con. My suggestion is we broaden our attack. When we want to make a point even if it is against someone specific we find a way to start the attack from the general proposition that all Republicans and conservatives are this or that.

We of the left have a tendency of giving the other a fellow a pass even though he spouts the party line of the neo-cons. I say if they lay down with dogs they are going to have fleas, so lets laser in on all Republicans.

I could think of a few more, but am still half asleep. But you are correct, sir.

Well...I'll think about it a little more...but I just have some reservations. I know it's what Newt Gingrich did an all...but that was a time when many people were disallusioned with the Democratic party...many people switched from the Democratic party to the Republican one...

I've been seeing evidence that the Republican party has been fracturing lately between the conservatives and the moderates. On top of that, I've been hearing more and more disallusioned Republicans. I think if we just say that their leadership has failed them , then it could be more effective...I don't know...add on if you want.

Either you are or you ain’t and being a republican means you have supported Bush and the rest of the traitors.

"Oh yes, I belonged to the Nazis party, but I had no knowledge that they were doing that...." The Germany followers of Hitler after WWII

First we have to have our voices heard before we shape the form of that message.

Right now the Right Wing spins 24/7 in a chorus of voices that are unified in their support for this regime (Bush good...a "real guy") and against Liberals/Progressive/Democrats (they couldn't tell the difference with a Mapquest road map).

When you tell a lie enough, two things happen...first you believe it more and more and the lie goes from being a rumor or gossip to assumed and gospel. We need to shut this machine down and expose it for the preditors they are.

If every Liberal with a computer printed that statement off and left a leaflet on a table, pinned to a notice board, in a book, wherever we can, that statement would soon get out.

Cheap labor.

That's why they oppose labor unions. That's why they prefer to ship our jobs overseas. That's why they want to cut benefits. It's all about maximizing profit by minimizing the cost of labor at the expense of everyone who needs a job.

The Repugnicans hate organized labor and this promotes the hiring of any type of cheap non-labor for corporations that can't escape off-shore...such as agri-business.

So, they bust the unions out of the farms and packinghouses and hire non-union migrants. The Con-Agra saves money, the migrants wire home about the chance to make money and another wave of immigration starts.

If we really slapped these large corporations that hire the illegals with sharp fines (millions, not hundreds), we'd see a sharp drop in the number of folks risking their lives to be abused north of the Rio Grande.

Experimental statement: "Republicanism is a philosophy whose loudest proponents talk a good game and then hide backstage popping pills."

Has a nice ring to it.

Good idea, Lone Liberal!
