Mehlman"Bush Lied People Died"
is undermining the war on terror with misleading facts and causing our soldiers to doubt what they are doing.Soldiers aren't stupid!They can see for themselves the lies.The moral problem is doing the samething over and over again.I just hope the American people are smart enough to see through the rhetoric!

2. Funny
I would of thought that lying, fixing the intelligence, and not supplying armour and equipment is what would cause soldiers to doubt what they're doing and not what protesters say.. but Melhman is just a dolt.

3. well seems to me that Mehlman just screwed the pooch on that
by bringing it up -- it's a catchy phrase, just sort of rolls off the tongue...

many people aren't even aware of that particular phrase, it's been lurking on the internets, but not out on the street lexicon - any bets we will be hearing it alot more real soon?

another example of the rest of the country catching on: a couple of years ago it was discovered that if you typed in "failure" in google search and hit "i'm feeling lucky" button that bush* would come up

just last week - I had 4 different people at work come up to me and tell me about it - they weren't aware of it until either they heard about on Tv or it was e-mailed to them

so go ahead - say it often and say it loud

BUSH LIED
PEOPLE DIED

4. Thanks, Ken!
"Bush lies, people die - that's what people are saying now."

People have been saying that for ever on the internets, but that's the first time I've seen anyone say it on network television. Nice of the RNC chairman to get it out there.

5. I've had that on my car for a couple years now. Last week someone left
me a note saying how happy they were to park next to someone whose car was saying just what they were thinking.

7. The GIs are doing what they've always done...
Their job. And I support them in doing it.

BushCo, on the other hand, can go straight to whatever hell there is for them.

8. "The Democrats are sending the wrong signal to the enemy" said Mehlman
We're telling the truth Ken, it's your cabal that is lying.

10. Soldiers die because of indecisiveness
Even wrong decision to invade Iraq could be handled efficiently, without protracted war. Prepare another dictator, install him, leave him alone. The losses are not because of the initial lies about Iraqi WMD, but because of the basic strategic errors.
