GOP convention theme = "We built that"

[Liberal_in_LA]

they announced it on Fox news last night. The nooze-casters were high fiving over that choice of theme. Once said in a sing song voice "we have momentum, we have momentum"

[hifiguy]

1. No, they have

Joementum and we all remember how that worked out.

[JoePhilly]

2. Maybe everyone on DU could turn this into a MEME ... the GOP, that phrase, and something they broke.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

7. I was just thinking we should stick it on the Bush economy and beat them with it.

Then there's the current congresses refusal to pass a balanced budget proposed by the Democrats which is about to send us spiraling down the recession hole again. They built that, too.

[Renew Deal]

3. And Hurricane Issac may knock it down

[librechik]

4. Everything else they do is based on lies, why not?

It pretty much gives away what the LYING Message of the convention will be. They will continue to Lie and Lie and Lie and Lie...

[mmonk]

5. And they can use pictures of southern plantations to go along with the slogan.

[Tennessee Gal]

6. Yes, they built the recession.

With the Bush tax cuts and two unfunded wars.

He was handed a surplus and he blew it.

[onehandle]

8. My tax money built that. Your Rmoney is offshore. nt

[opiate69]

9. lmao! "We", not "I". Thanks for making our point, geniuses!

[JoePhilly]

11. That is a good observation.

[renate]

14. oh that is perfect!

This should be a thread of its own.

[opiate69]

20. Thanks! If it wasn`t such a pain in the ass from this phone, I would

[Ichingcarpenter]

10. The Convention Center they will be in was built by taxpayers monies

the roads, police, fireman protecting it
same.

Its too easy

[Cali_Democrat]

12. Yup.

Good point.

[renate]

17. you'd almost think the RNC doesn't have sentient beings on its sloganeering staff

On the other hand, it takes a special genius to construct a self-evident contradiction in just THREE WORDS.

[HopeHoops]

13. Yeah, in a government-built facility with government-built roads and government security.

Nah, the "gubmint" never did anything to help them. Not a thing.

[YoungDemCA]

15. This is what Republican policies "built"

I guess they are embracing it....

[Blue Meany]

16. This cries out for mockery...

Images of Iraq, Wall Street panic, closed down factories, etc. interspersed with images of Romney, Ryan, Bain Capital, etc.

The Obama campaign should adopt the slogan "We fixed it" or "We are fixing that..."

[Skidmore]

18. Tack it onto a picture of the debt clock from the Bush terms.

[sinkingfeeling]

19. "We" isn't a singular business person, it's a country, just like the President said.

[IggleDoer]

21. More like "They Built That" and we'll destroy it.

Like Medicare, Civil Rights, Women's health, SS, etc.

[Lex]

22. For R's, it should be "I alone built that." Because "we" built that is Obama's point. nt

[Capt. Obvious]

23. Did they build it on rock and roll?
