During WW II, the Japanese were searching for a way to demoralize the American forces that they faced. Their psychological warfare experts came up with a message that they thought would work well.

They gave the script to their famous broadcaster, "Tokyo Rose," and every day she would broadcast this same message packaged in various ways, hoping to have an impact on American GI morale. What was the message?
It had three main points:
1. Your president is lying to you.
2. This war is illegal.
3. You cannot win the war.

Sound familiar? the Democratic Party has picked up the same message and is broadcasting it to civilians domestic and abroad, and to our troops and our enemies. The only difference is that they claim to support our troops before they demoralize them.

Come to think of it, Tokyo Rose used to tell the troops that she was on their side.

I am often struck by how similar the rhetoric from the left is to the rhetoric from our enemies. Consider this transcript of a taped al qaeda message:

Bush still follows in Ken Lay's footsteps -- He's now promoting Non-Binding regulations for Hedge Funds -- Hedge Fund managers are awarded new Iraq reconstruction contracts & hire the same execs accused of contract abuse.

Lars is actually Ken Lay now hiding out in the Cayman Islands, after his brothers in the freemasons faked his death.

The word has gotten out that Cheney has been maintaining his favorite "Ho" for over six years. Who could Cheney's favorite "Ho" be, you guessed it, George W. Bush.

And Bush's favorite ho? that would be Condi Rice. The rumors about them have been swirling around the toilet bowl of Washington for years and, like a piece of sh*it, it's all about to come popping to the surface. Personally I think the sickest part about this is that even an as ambitious person as her would let something like him crawl on top of her for the 4 or 5 seconds it takes for him to scream "mommy" and go to sleep.

The Bush administration is making the Argument that Iran and the Arab countries in the Middle East do not recognize Israel's right to exist ! The Rational argument then is Who cares if a country doesn't recognize Israel's right to exist? For years America did not recognize Peoples Republic of Chinas right to exist either! Get a grip do not be pulled into this NEOCON war talk! America has spent enough Blood and money in the Middle East. If we quit running to the defense and propping up these governments like Saudi Arabia and Israel they would have to negotiate with their neighbors and come to an agreement! Just like in Iraq as long as the Iraqi government can count on the American Crutch they will kill each other for ever. But if they know we are going to be gone and not get involved every time they scream then they will be forced to make peace. Because in the end all these people within these countries want to live in Peace and Safety with their families.

these stupid silly little fascist nazi Islamic muslims are no different than the stupid silly little fascist nazi germans

"When they cam to arrest the Jews, I did not say any thing. I am not a Jew.
When they came to arrest the communists, I did not say anything. I am not a communist.
When they came to arrest the socialists, I did not say anything. I am not a socialist.
When they cam to arrest the homosexuals, gypsies, mentally retarded, etc. I did not say anything, I am none of the above.
When they came to arrest me, there was no one to speak for me."

Reporter from NBC just back from 4 years covering Iraq reports that Southern Iraq has become so like Iran that when you try to book a hotel they actually speak in Iranian Farsi and quote the price in Iranian currency.

What a surprise, eh? I mean, just because the neocons took out the gatekeeper Hussein who kept Iran at bay for decades....

Kurds in Northern Iraq were the ones who actually allowed, permitted and aided Al Queda by providing them with training camps in Kurd-controlled Northern Iran and now Bush Admin and Pentagon wondering why/how Northern Iraq getting out of control?

Dear Lord, please have pity on us and save us from the fools that fill the Bush Administration from top of the heap to the bottom of the Bush Loyalists Heap.
